How much does Modern Electric cost?
We price your membership at 20% less than what you currently pay for electricity + your existing solar payment. See "How it works" above. Each month, we compare your actual usage to what you would’ve paid on your old setup.
What is Modern Electric? How does it work?
Modern Electric is an energy membership and a new way to make money in one. For homes with solar, we max out your roof with solar and retrofit large battery to your home at no upfront cost. You get paid because batteries in our network help the grid. When there are blackouts, your lights stay on because the battery acts as a backup energy source.
How is Modern Electric so much less expensive than other options? How do you make money?
Because we don’t need to make all our money from homeowners. Traditional home energy stacks sales commissions, installer markups, financing fees, and manufacturer/distributor margin. Modern Electric flips the model: we earn a meaningful share from the grid instead of you. We price financed equipment near cost at-cost to a maximum of a 15% markup (kind of like Costco) and keep your bill simple. Two other choices keep costs down: 1. We don't run a Retail Electric Provider (REP) business, so we avoid the overhead and risk that comes with it. 2. We’re not a manufacturer: we don’t make you pay for factory overhead or a vertically-integrated cost structure. There are plenty of great batteries out there, we focus on selecting reliable hardware and running it well. Net: you get all-in energy, outage safety, and earnings without paying a giant upfront cost and premium just to fund everyone’s markup (which is a total of 40-60% as of 2026, yikes).
Will I still get a statement from my utility? What will the energy cost be?
If you stay connected to the grid (like most solar homes), you’ll still get a utility bill for the electricity you use when your panels don’t cover your demand. That bill goes down as you buy less power, and it varies with your usage, solar production, and local rates. Note: We are not your utility. You may still receive a utility bill depending on your usage and local rules With Modern Electric, you’ll have (1) a utility bill and (2) a bill to the company that financed your system — and together they’re designed to be less than the total you pay today.
