You scope and install. KEEL prices the lease, handles the incentive paperwork and pays you on milestones, so a $90,000 system becomes a monthly figure the owner can say yes to.

-
01
A local contractor sizes it
A licensed KEEL contractor partner reviews your bills and interval data, sizes the battery to your peak demand and backup needs, and specifies the equipment. Already have an installer? They can join the program.
-
02
KEEL prices it and places the tax credit
KEEL models the demand-charge savings against your utility's tariff, verifies federal, state and utility incentives against the published program documents, and arranges a funding partner that funds 100% of the project and signs the lease with you. Ownership goes where the 30% credit is worth the most: usually you.
-
03
You pay one fixed monthly payment
A 10-year term at a fixed monthly payment, priced to sit below the savings the system is modeled to produce. KEEL services the agreement and manages operations and maintenance for the life of the term.
Built for demand-charge bills.
Most commercial electric bills are driven by the single highest 15-minute draw each month, billed per kilowatt. On one utility account KEEL reviewed, demand charges were 57% of a $16,000 monthly bill at about $51 per kW. A battery that shaves that peak is the whole case, and the same mechanism applies in every US utility territory with a demand rate.
Commercial & Industrial
Offices, distribution and cold storage, manufacturing, data and telecom rooms, retail and recreation facilities on demand-based tariffs. Demand-charge avoidance plus utility demand-response income.
Commercial & Industrial storage →Multifamily
Common-area meters with elevators, pumps and central HVAC. Backup for life-safety loads, demand savings for the owner, and state storage incentives where they exist.
Multifamily storage →Nonprofits & Religious Sites
Churches, schools and community facilities can take the federal credit as a direct cash payment. Add a state critical-facility incentive where the site qualifies and the economics change completely.
Nonprofit storage →Common questions
Who owns the battery?
Under the standard capital lease, the property does: it is the owner from signing and keeps the 30% federal tax credit and depreciation. When a property cannot use the tax benefits, KEEL uses an operating lease instead; the funding partner owns the system and takes the credit, and the monthly payment reflects it. KEEL prices both and recommends one.
What does it cost up front?
Nothing. A funding partner funds 100% of project cost and signs the lease directly with the property; a licensed local contractor installs the system; the first monthly payment is due after switch-on. No capex line, no board approval, no collateral, no lien on the building.
Where does KEEL work?
Across the United States. KEEL screens any address; the projects that pencil best sit in utility territories with high demand charges or strong state storage incentives, which today means much of the Northeast, the mid-Atlantic, Illinois and Georgia; each has a page under Markets. KEEL's deepest program experience is in New York; see the New York incentive guide and New York Service Area.
How fast is a quote?
Send one recent electric bill and KEEL returns an indicative monthly payment, the incentives the property qualifies for and a sizing range within two business days. A site survey to switch-on typically runs six to nine months, most of it utility interconnection.
