About Base Power Company
Base Power Company was founded in 2023 in Austin, Texas, by CEO Zach Dell and co-founder Justin Lopas. Lopas previously led manufacturing at Anduril and worked on rockets at SpaceX, while the broader team brings experience from satellite constellation launches and early electric vehicle production. The company was born after Winter Storm Uri left millions of Texans without power for days, highlighting the grid’s fragility and rising electricity costs. The company handles battery pack assembly, in-house engineering, UL-certified testing, and runs a virtual power plant that dispatches stored energy to the grid during peak demand. The primary customers are residential homeowners in Texas and Illinois seeking affordable backup power and fixed-rate electricity. The company also serves grid-storage and utility markets by aggregating its distributed batteries to provide grid-balancing services. Testimonials cite installations in Houston, Waxahachie, Cypress, Arlington, Saginaw, and Pflugerville. Base positions its model as a low-cost alternative to traditional generators or solar-plus-storage, installing the battery for a $695 one-time fee plus a $19 monthly membership, with an all-in energy rate around 13.9¢/kWh. The battery is tested for -22°F to 122°F and submersion-rated to three feet, and the company says it earns revenue from grid services rather than marking up energy, allowing it to keep rates low.
