The Battery Bonanza: A Billion Dollar Bet on Home Power The recent funding round for Base, Zach Dell's three year old home battery company, has valued the young startup at a staggering $13 billion.
This valuation is roughly equivalent to that of some of the world's most established energy companies.
Base's business model sets it apart from traditional backup power systems, which can cost upwards of $15,000 and require significant upfront investment.
