Price ranges and the state credit
Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5 kWh): about $19,000 for the first, about $12,000 for each added unit. Enphase IQ Battery: about $17,000 for the first 10 kWh. SigEnergy: $15,500 for 9 kWh, plus $3,500 per added 9 kWh module.
Colorado’s credit is 10% of the purchase price for equipment, tax and freight — not labor or permits — for tax years through 2026. Residential batteries are also exempt from state sales tax through 2032.
Who in Loveland actually needs one
Homes on well water west of town, anyone with medical equipment, and people who work from home get the clearest value, because an outage costs them something concrete. For a typical in-town home with reliable service, a battery may not pay back on bill savings alone — and we’ll say so.
FAQ
Questions we hear
Does Loveland Water & Power offer a battery rebate?
We haven’t verified one for 2026. Check the utility’s site; if one exists, we’ll build it into your proposal.
How long will one Powerwall run my Loveland home?
It depends on what’s connected. Essentials like a fridge, furnace fan, lights and Wi-Fi typically run overnight or longer on 13.5 kWh; central AC or electric heat drains it much faster. Our blackout calculator lets you pick loads.
Can I add a battery later?
Yes, if the original system is designed for it. We add batteries to systems we install; we don’t service or take over other companies’ systems.
