The actual batteries are the same; whole-home backup systems just have more of them. To power your entire home during an outage, you''ll need a battery system that is about the size of your daily electricity load (about 30 kilowatt-hours (kWh) on average). Comparatively, partial-home battery backup systems usually store around 10 to 15 kWh.
It''s important to note that battery prices vary based on the type of equipment, product availability, and location. In fact, based on the NREL''s breakdown, the actual equipment (battery, inverter, and balance of system) costs around $7,400 — 39% of the total cost of a standalone project — while soft costs like supply chain costs, installation labor, taxes, permitting/inspection ...
