Dallas, TX
Home battery backup for Dallas homeowners
Dallas sits in Oncor Electric Delivery territory, the largest T&D utility in Texas. ERCOT grid emergencies have hit hard here, with Uri in 2021 producing one of the worst residential outage events in the state\'s history. Eos installs automatic battery systems that take over the moment the grid drops, no fuel and no manual switchover.
Why Dallas is buying batteries
Dallas saw some of the most severe residential outage impact during the 2021 winter storm. Cold-weather natural gas plant failures cascaded into multi-day blackouts across North Texas, with temperatures well below freezing and water mains bursting in homes that lost heat. The 2023 ice storm produced a smaller but still significant tree-damage event with widespread multi-day outages across Lakewood, Highland Park, and East Dallas.
Dallas summers also produce tornadoes, hail, and the occasional derecho. All of these can take down Oncor distribution lines and produce localized outages of variable length. A battery handles every category of grid event automatically.
Dallas homes range from historic Lakewood and Highland Park bungalows to recent Uptown high-rises and far-north suburban builds. Battery placement and sizing vary widely; we assess each home individually and recommend the right tier for the actual load profile.

Common questions from Dallas homeowners
Which utility serves Dallas?
Oncor Electric Delivery is the transmission and distribution utility for Dallas and most of North Texas. Oncor handles the grid; your retail electric provider handles billing under the Texas competitive market. Battery installations require an Oncor interconnection notification, which our team handles.
Did Winter Storm Uri affect Dallas in 2021?
Yes. Dallas was one of the hardest-hit Texas metros during Uri in February 2021, with multi-day rolling outages, freezing temperatures, and water system failures. The 2023 ice storm also caused widespread tree damage and localized multi-day outages across Dallas County. Battery interest in North Texas has stayed strong since.
How long is the lead time for a Dallas installation?
Outside the Greater Houston metro, scheduling is slightly longer than our typical 1 to 2 week window. Dallas installations typically run 4 to 6 weeks total from first contact to a working system, including permit processing through City of Dallas Building Inspection and Oncor coordination.
Can a battery handle a Dallas home with electric heat pump?
Yes, but full backup of an all-electric heated home typically requires a Pro or Premium tier system. Heat pumps pull 5 to 12 kW continuous depending on the home, which exceeds the Essential tier capacity. We size each install to the actual heating and cooling load profile during the assessment.
Pricing for Dallas homeowners
Installed systems range from $9,915 to $23,030 depending on capacity. In-house financing from $87.45/month with no credit score impact to check eligibility.
