Serving Minneapolis, MN
In Minneapolis and Hennepin County, brutal winters make backup power and a properly sized panel central to what Charge Home Solutions installs, along with Tesla Wall Connectors and Powerwall. Xcel Energy serves the area, and a Powerwall keeps the furnace, sump pump, and refrigerator running when a winter storm takes the grid down.
We pull the City of Minneapolis or county permit and run a load calculation before quoting, older homes in Uptown and Northeast often need a 200-amp upgrade before a Level 2 charger, while newer Edina and Maple Grove builds usually have room. We capture Xcel Energy rebates that apply at your address.
