GridSafe Permit-Ready Battery Storage Plan

Installation-ready planning for battery storage and solar backup systems.

The GridSafe Permit-Ready Plan gives you everything in the Home Plan, plus professional, permit-ready engineering documentation that speeds up the permitting and installation process.

Permit approvals vary by jurisdiction and require precise technical documents. Our engineering partners prepare complete, inspector-ready plans that installers can submit with confidence.

What’s included

• Complete battery storage plan for your home
• Battery and equipment recommendations sized to your needs
• Estimated cost expectations
• Installer referrals when you’re ready
• Permit-ready engineering plan set
• Electrical layout and single-line diagrams
• Site and equipment layout plans
• Professional engineering support and documentation

These plans include the key technical elements most local building departments expect, detailed layouts, electrical diagrams, and technical drawings, all designed to meet code and help installers pull permits efficiently. 

Why this helps

Getting permit approval often requires technical permit plan sets that meet local building, fire, and electrical codes. Incomplete or incorrect plans are a top reason permitting gets delayed.

With the permit-ready plan:

✔ Your installer can submit technical plans that align with AHJ requirements
✔ You reduce delays and costly resubmissions
✔ Plans include the diagrams and documentation commonly required by local reviewers

This option is ideal if you are ready to move from planning to installation with fewer obstacles.

Who this is for

This plan is for homeowners who:

• Are ready to move toward installation
• Want engineering documentation handled up front
• Prefer fewer permitting delays and smoother installer handoff
• Want clarity about what installers and building departments expect before install begins

If you’re still gathering information or just starting to plan, the GridSafe Home Plan may be the right first step.

How it works

1. Purchase the GridSafe Permit-Ready Plan

2. Complete a short intake about your home and energy goals

3. We prepare your battery storage plan and permit-ready documents

4. We refer installers and outline next steps — reducing back-and-forth

Important notes

Permit documentation requirements vary in price by city, county, and state. GridSafe prepares engineering plans designed to support permit approval, but final permit approval is decided by your local authority having jurisdiction. Price can vary depending on your area to put together the plans.

GridSafe coordinates planning and documentation. We are not the installing contractor; installations are completed by independent third parties. We can recommend the installers with an additional fee.

Because permit-ready plans involve custom engineering work, completed plans are non-refundable.
