If you’re an owner of an aging battery energy storage system (BESS), you may be sitting on precious metals, literally. At Decom Solar, we help you unlock that value through fast, safe, and environmentally responsible decommissioning.
After 25 years leading some of the largest solar installations in the U.S., the founders of Decom Solar are now focused on the next major challenge in the renewable energy lifecycle: responsibly decommissioning aging solar and battery storage systems.
Battery storage technology scaled dramatically after 2016 as energy managers and property owners sought to store solar energy and optimize utility costs. But with typical lifespans of just 5 to 10 years, many of those early systems are already reaching end-of-life.
Unlike solar panels, batteries, with their different chemistry makeups, are sensitive and potentially hazardous. Decommissioning requires specialized handling, regulatory compliance, and a clear strategy. Unfortunately, most owners aren’t prepared.
Battery systems degrade faster than solar modules, and most warranties last just five to ten years. That means thousands of BESS units are aging out without proper planning for removal, disposal, or recycling.
If you’re an owner or operator of a 5+ year-old battery system, the time to act is now. Waiting until failure can lead to unnecessary costs and lost revenue.
Our decommissioning process is designed for speed, safety, and sustainability. Here’s what sets us apart:
If you own or manage a battery storage system, decommissioning isn’t a “maybe”; it’s inevitable. The good news? Planning ahead can turn a liability into an opportunity.
Let Decom Solar guide you through a safe, financially beneficial transition. Our team brings deep experience, cutting-edge processes, and a mission to protect both your business and the planet.
