Through our partnership, Farmers members receive:
- Whole-home backup battery installed at your home
- Up to 24 hours of backup power during an outage
- Maintenance and service costs covered for the life of the battery
- 24/7 system monitoring through the Base app
Did You Know?
Backup power strengthens grid resilience and keeps more homes in our community powered when it matters most.

The first 200 Farmers EC members to sign up with Base get a 50 percent discount on the upfront cost.

Farmers x Base FAQs
Providing reliable backup power for every Farmers member home.
Does my energy provider change when I get a Base battery?
No.
Your energy provider does not change when you get a Base battery. If you see language about energy provider services on Base’s website, this is because Base also serves customers in competitive (deregulated) service areas of Texas.
What happens during a power outage?
Will I still be a Farmers’ member when I get a Base battery?
While Base does offer additional services in different parts of Texas, you’re a Farmers member with or without a Base battery.
