A California community plans to provide microgrids to 37 US military veterans in Perris, California, under a home as a service model that the developer hopes to replicate nationally.

All American Homes is acting as builder with Instant On, a battery and fuel cell distribution company, providing batteries, solar and controls for the pilot project. The partnership also is planning a second undertaking of 200 homes that will add fuel cells to the energy mix.

Ultimately, All American Homes hopes to build about one million homes across the country using this model.

Each home in the pilot project will have 5 kW of solar, 40 kWh of battery storage and an advanced home energy management system, said AJ Perkins, president of Instant On. The community center will be equipped with a 1 MW battery.

“What’s unique about this project is using a large battery storage system — 40 kWh for each home — to ensure homes don’t experience blackouts,” he said.
