How much does Base cost? How much do I pay for energy?

Updated over 2 weeks ago

To get started with Base, you pay a $50 refundable deposit to secure your spot. Once your battery is installed, this deposit goes toward your one-time installation cost, which is $595 or $995 depending on your zip code and plan.

After installation, you pay monthly energy bills and a membership fee. The membership fee is $225/year or $345/year billed annually depending on your plan.


For your monthly energy bills, our energy rate is 9c/kWh plus your utility's transmission and delivery fees. If you have solar, Base buys back any excess energy you produce at real-time wholesale rates + 3¢/kWh. You can see Base's latest plans and Electricity Facts Labels (EFLs) here.

To see how much you can save, send Base your latest energy bill at [email protected], and a Base energy advisor will provide a personalized cost comparison.
