Backup Power — South Jordan, Utah

Battery backup in South Jordan, Utah.

Batteries and standby generators installed by a licensed Master Electrician. No salespeople, no leases, no inflated pricing.

Why South Jordan homes are going backup-first

South Jordan — especially Daybreak — is heavily new-construction with modern 200-amp panels and plenty of existing rooftop solar. That makes add-battery retrofits the fastest-growing service we offer here. Rocky Mountain Power outages from wind and scheduled maintenance hit the older River Park and Glenmoor neighborhoods regularly, which keeps whole-home battery and generator systems in demand.

BYOP Electric designs battery and generator systems around the actual loads in your house, not a brochure’s “typical home.” We walk the property, read your bill, look at your panel, and ask what you actually want running when the grid is out. The result is a system that covers what matters and nothing you don’t need to pay for.

For homes with existing solar — especially the 10kW+ systems installed over the last five years — we retrofit batteries that finally make those panels useful during an outage. Most grid-tied solar shuts off when the grid fails; a properly integrated battery keeps it running.

Whether you’re in a new-build on the east side or a legacy home downtown, BYOP gives you the same straight pricing and direct communication. You talk to the licensed electrician who does the install — not a sales rep, not a call center, not a dealer network.

"Much cheaper to go with someone with Bat’s background than a big solar company. However, there is nothing cheap about his work. He does exactly what he tells you he will do."

South Jordan Backup Power FAQ

How much does a home battery backup cost in South Jordan, Utah?

A whole-home battery backup system in South Jordan typically runs $14,000 to $28,000 installed, depending on capacity and whether you need critical-loads only or full-home coverage. BYOP pairs the battery with a transfer switch and sizes the system to your actual outage needs — not a sales pitch. Rocky Mountain Power's Wattsmart Battery Program pays $2,000 per battery, applied directly to the install cost.

Battery or generator — which makes more sense for a South Jordan home?

For most South Jordan homes, a battery wins on quiet operation, zero fuel, and daily bill reduction. A standby generator wins on long-duration outages and heavy loads like a well pump or HVAC. Many of our South Jordan clients end up with both — a battery for the first 8 to 24 hours, a generator for anything longer. BYOP designs the system around your outage history and load profile, not a one-size-fits-all package.

Do I need a permit for a battery or generator install in South Jordan?

Yes. South Jordan requires electrical permits for battery storage, standby generators, and transfer switches. BYOP pulls every permit and schedules every inspection as part of the install — you never have to visit city hall. Permit costs are included in the quote, never surprise-billed.

What battery brands does BYOP install in South Jordan?

We install Tesla Powerwall, EG4, Anker SOLIX, Ecoflow, Lion Energy, and Ruxiu in South Jordan. Unlike a dealer who pushes one brand, we recommend the battery that actually fits your backup goals, load profile, and budget. Every South Jordan install includes the transfer switch, electrical integration, commissioning, and permitting — a single priced project.

Does South Jordan get enough power outages to justify backup?

South Jordan's grid is among the newer and more stable in the valley, but outages still happen — and customers who already invested in solar are often frustrated their panels don't work when the grid is down. Adding a battery fixes that in one visit. A free site visit tells you whether your specific address justifies the system — and how big to size it.
