Residential solar sales operating system, Enerflo, has partnered with Palmetto, a leading consumer energy platform, to offer Palmetto Energy Backup, the first battery-only lease product fully integrated into the Enerflo platform.
Now, residential solar installers will be able to sell backup energy storage as a standalone lease without homeowners needing to secure traditional financing or pay for it upfront.
Palmetto Energy Backup is a third-party ownership (TPO) lease specifically for energy storage. Unlike typical battery add-ons, it features a subscription-based model that includes premium battery equipment, installation, and ongoing maintenance under a lease structure.
The lease is built directly into Lendflo, the company’s proposal, pricing, and financing engine, and allows sales reps to size, price, present, submit, and confirm battery-only applications in a single workflow.
“The industry is shifting, and installers need additional ways to grow,” said Pat Bennett, CEO of Enerflo, in a statement. “By launching the first battery-only lease integrated directly into Enerflo, we’re giving our partners a powerful tool to unlock new revenue from their existing customer base while making energy storage more affordable for homeowners with Palmetto.”
By offering a battery-only lease option, installers can revisit their existing customers with a new offer, generate additional revenue without increasing their customer acquisition costs, and close deals faster through a fully integrated sales process. The Palmetto Energy Backup integration is available to installers with an active Enerflo subscription who are enrolled in the Energy Backup program.
Sean Hayes, GM of Palmetto LightReach, added, “With Energy Backup, we’re extending that mission to storage—allowing more homeowners to add reliable backup power through a simple lease structure, while helping Enerflo installers expand their service offerings and strengthen customer relationships.”
