ENERGY STORAGE · BACKUP · INDEPENDENT POWER

Built for the backcountry.

Power where the road ends. Expert diagnostics, service, recovery, and commissioning for energy storage, backup, and independent power systems across Colorado.

What we do

Complete power system support.

Battery. Solar. Generator. Inverter. Controls. We diagnose and support the complete system, not just the individual component.

Energy Storage + Backup

The battery is one part of the system.

Diagnostics, service, commissioning, and support for residential battery storage and whole-home backup — including the solar, inverters, controls, communications, transfer equipment, and critical loads around it.

System Recovery

For systems left without support.

Support for existing systems when the original installer is unavailable, no longer servicing the equipment, or out of business. We diagnose the system, identify available manufacturer support, and give you a path forward.

Off-Grid + Independent Power

Power beyond the utility line.

Diagnostics, service, commissioning, and integration for remote properties and mountain homes — solar, batteries, generators, inverters, controls, and loads as one power system.

Energy storage

Energy storage is a system, not a battery.

A home battery depends on the equipment around it. Solar, inverters, controls, communications, transfer equipment, generators, and loads all affect how the system performs. Backcountry diagnoses and supports the complete energy system.

Battery + Backup Problems

Battery faults, unexpected behavior, backup failures, communication issues, and systems that do not operate correctly during an outage.

Existing System Support

Diagnostics, warranty coordination, recommissioning, equipment replacement, and support for systems installed by other contractors.

Storage + System Upgrades

Battery expansion, storage retrofits, inverter modernization, backup improvements, and integration of new equipment into existing power systems.

Independent by design

We didn't sell you the system. That's the point.

Our assessment isn't shaped by the equipment we sold you. Most power systems are serviced one component at a time. We take a different approach.

Battery, solar, generator, inverter, controls, communications, and loads are evaluated as one system. We measure what's happening, identify the root cause, and give you a clear path forward.

  • Independent system-level diagnostics
  • Multi-brand and legacy equipment expertise
  • Written findings and recommendations

System recovery

Your installer may be gone. Your system isn't.

Backcountry provides independent diagnostics and system recovery for existing solar, battery, and backup systems when the original installer is unavailable, no longer servicing the equipment, or out of business.

We help identify the problem, determine available manufacturer support, and provide a clear path toward repair, recommissioning, replacement, or upgrade.

Deeper than the install.

Built on decades of power-system experience.

Manufacturer. Field service. Commissioning. System integration. Backcountry Powerworks brings that experience directly to the storage, backup, and independent power systems on Colorado properties.

That work spans battery storage, inverters and power electronics, solar, generators, and controls — from residential off-grid systems through commercial and grid-scale energy storage. It's a different background than a conventional residential solar installer, and it shows up in how the system gets diagnosed.

Legacy systems

Older doesn't mean obsolete.

Some of Colorado's most reliable independent power systems have been operating for 10, 15, or 20+ years. Finding someone who still understands them is becoming harder.

Backcountry provides specialized diagnostics and support for legacy inverter, battery, solar, generator, and control systems, including equipment no longer actively supported by the original installer or manufacturer.

Buying a mountain property?

Know the power system you're inheriting.

Battery storage. Solar. Generators. Inverters. Transfer equipment. Controls. Critical loads. Legacy equipment.

A sophisticated mountain property can contain significant power infrastructure that falls outside the scope of a typical home inspection.

Backcountry Powerworks provides independent power-system assessments for buyers, owners, property managers, and real-estate professionals.
