Battery Storage Lead Generation from Building Permits
Battery Storage permit leads, battery storage advertising targets and follow-on work, from the public permits battery and solar installers pull in your ZIPs.
Quick answer. Permit-based lead generation for battery and solar installers starts from jobs that are already happening: public building permits.

Plans start at $20/mo.
Battery Storage permit leads
Each record is a real permit from a city or county: issue date, permit type, address and ZIP, scope, declared value where published and the contractor of record where published. We map each permit to the battery storage trade and filter it to your ZIPs.
- Mail neighbors of each battery install.
- Offer storage add-ons to homes with solar permits but no battery.
- Find the installers pulling the most storage permits in your ZIPs.
Battery Storage advertising with permit data
- Spend where the work is: aim local ads and mailers at the ZIP codes with the most battery storage permits.
- Market to the neighbors of active jobs: same-age houses on the same street often need the same work.
- Follow-on demand. Battery installs come with solar and panel work. A solar-only permit is a battery prospect.
The honest limit. A permit usually means the job is already sold. We say that up front. The value is what happens around it:
- Neighbor marketing around active jobs: same-age houses on the same street.
- Cross-trade follow-on demand: new roof → solar, gutters, insulation; remodel → HVAC, electrical, landscaping, pool; new build → pest, security, landscaping.
- Contractor activity: which contractors pull permits where (where the jurisdiction publishes it), and who to recruit as subs.
- Early-stage projects for commercial trades and GC subs.

Questions
How does permit-based lead generation for battery and solar installers work?
Cities and counties publish building permits. We pull them, keep residential battery storage permits, and send you the ones in your ZIPs every Monday as a CSV with the address, scope and value. You use them for neighbor marketing, follow-on offers and ad targeting.
How much do battery storage permit leads cost?
Starter is $20/mo for one trade and up to 5 ZIPs. Whole City is $140/mo for a whole metro and up to 5 trades. Guarantee on every package: If a month comes in under half the 8-week average permit count for your ZIPs and trades, you get 50% off next month.

Can I use permit data for battery storage advertising?
Yes. Point mailers, door-hangers and local ads at the ZIP codes where battery storage permits are being pulled, and at the streets around active jobs. The permit file tells you where; it does not include homeowner phone numbers or emails.
Does a permit mean the job is still open?
Usually not: a permit typically means the job is sold. The value is neighbor marketing around active jobs, cross-trade follow-on work, and contractor activity where the jurisdiction publishes it.
