St. Pete and Duke Energy
Duke Energy Florida supplies power to St. Petersburg, from Snell Isle and the Old Northeast to Kenwood and Shore Acres. The city's franchise agreement with Duke expired on July 31, 2026, and St. Pete is paying for a study of whether to run its own utility. Duke keeps serving homes in the meantime.
Whoever ends up delivering the power, a battery does the same job. It stays charged on the wall near your electrical panel and moves the house over to stored power on its own when the grid drops.

Battery backup for St. Pete homes
A home battery mounts on a wall in the garage or outside, close to your electrical panel. When the power drops it takes over on its own, which matters if someone in the house depends on a CPAP machine or an oxygen concentrator.
Pair it with solar panels and the battery refills during the day, even while the grid is still down.
