If your home energy costs are rising, know that this is just the beginning of a trend that will continue. It's time to seek more innovative energy solutions that can help you avoid expensive peak-hour usage, while providing security during outages and emergencies.
The EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra helps you save up to $3,600 per year by managing your energy more intelligently. Backup power has long been used for emergency preparedness, but it can also be used daily to optimize your costs.
Why Home Energy Costs Are Rising
Time-of-use payment structures charge customers more for energy use during peak hours and less during off-peak hours. It penalizes peak-hour consumption with premium pricing, but it's sometimes hard to avoid using your electronics and appliances during those hours.
And even the already-high peak-hour pricing is rising in many markets across North America. Retail electricity rates have increased faster than inflation over the past few years, and they are expected to continue. Regions where consumers already pay high rates could see increases above the national average.
Why is this happening? Electric utilities have increased capital investment to begin upgrading or replacing aging infrastructure, and those costs are reflected in retail electricity prices.
Backup Power Isn’t Just for Outages Anymore
While backup power was previously used for outages and emergencies, we're now seeing a greater day-to-day application as rates rise. Different types of backup power systems serve different household needs. Portable battery systems are flexible and can go with you, while whole-home solutions can integrate with your existing electrical systems for seamless, automatic operation.
But optimizing your daily use requires a strategy. If you're paying time-of-use rates, you'll get the most benefit by using your backup power during high-peak hours, such as the afternoons from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. While you could manually switch your power source from the grid to your backup system, integrated smart technology features can also handle some of the peak shaving and load management, taking that off your plate.

How EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra Helps Save Up to $3,600 Per Year
One solution: massive savings. The EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra helps you save thousands each year by leveraging its features and benefits.
Peak Shaving Technology
You can set your EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra to charge only during low-cost off-peak hours. You can then use it to power your circuits, appliances, or electronics during expensive peak-rate periods, so you're not relying on the grid when retail electricity is most costly.
Smart algorithms can learn your household consumption patterns and begin reducing peak demand charges by strategically deploying your backup battery.
Load Management Optimization
Prioritize what matters during high-rate periods and shift non-essential loads to cheaper overnight hours. The EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra can coordinate with other smart home devices to achieve maximum efficiency.
Want to know how things are running, how much grid energy you're using, and where your battery is supplementing? Use real-time monitoring on the app and keep everything managed from the palm of your hand, from anywhere.
Solar Integration Benefits
Solar integration really takes this to the next level. You can store any excess solar power produced in the battery to use during evening peak hours. This leverages the sunlight you're already getting and is another excellent way to avoid expensive peak-hour electricity costs.

Why the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra Is Built for the Future of Home Energy
Part of the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Series, this robust and reliable portable power station is designed to evolve alongside your home energy needs.
Its base capacity of 6 kWh might work for you today, but as your home needs evolve, you might need more capacity. Thankfully, you can invest in additional batteries and connect them to the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra to achieve up to 90kWh of storage capacity.
It's built to grow, but it's also built to last. Advanced LFP battery chemistry ensures long-term reliability and performance. You get 3,500 cycles before reaching 80% capacity.
Think of it as the foundation of your smart home. Use it alone to cover your critical loads or upgrade later on to a smart home panel that operates independently and automatically. Yet, everything is still easily accessible to view or manage from any smartphone.
The EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra is a future-proof technology. It can adapt to changing utility rate structures, and its modular design lets you grow or expand your setup as your energy demands increase.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Can a Home Battery Save Money on Electricity Bills?
A home battery can help save money on electricity bills by storing electricity when it's Cheap during off-peak hours, but you can then use it during expensive peak periods so you're not paying high grid prices. Using this strategy every day will significantly reduce your bill by avoiding higher time-of-use rates.
Does the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra Work Without Solar Panels?
Yes, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra still works independently as a portable power station or in tandem with solar panels as a solar generator. You can charge it using AC grid power during low-cost periods and still deliver peak shaving benefits using this stored utility power alone.
Home Battery Systems Reduce Energy Costs While Improving Energy Resilience
Home battery systems were once viewed as emergency supplies, but now they're a daily necessity for cost-conscious homeowners. The EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra delivers measurable savings by managing your energy sources and circuits to benefit your bottom line.
The investment pays for itself over time by reducing your electricity bills and enhancing your energy security. You'll save money and feel good knowing you have both an emergency backup solution and an everyday partner in energy independence.
