Hillwood Communities and Base Power Partner to Deploy Home Battery Backup in North Texas
Hillwood Communities has entered a strategic partnership with Base Power to provide advanced home battery backup systems to residential developments in North Texas. The initial rollout targets nearly 6,500 homes across the Treeline, Pecan Square, and Harvest communities, with plans to expand access to approximately 9,500 homes at full buildout. The collaboration utilizes Base Power's distributed energy technology, which allows individual home batteries to function as a coordinated resource. This system provides whole-home backup during outages while supporting the local electric grid by adding capacity during periods of high demand. The initiative is supported by utility partner CoServ and aims to enhance energy resilience against extreme weather events. Looking ahead, the partnership intends to expand into other Hillwood developments in Denton and Pilot Point, with long-term potential for expansion into Austin, Houston, Florida, and the Northeast as Base Power scales its operations.
