DALLAS – October 28, 2026 -- Hillwood Communities is partnering with Base Power to offer home battery backup to nearly 6,500 North Texas homes, with access growing to approximately 9,500 homes at full buildout of the three initial communities.
Initial rollout covers three CoServ-served Hillwood communities
Eligible new and existing homeowners in Treeline by Hillwood in Justin, Pecan Square by Hillwood in Northlake, and Harvest by Hillwood in Argyle and Northlake can access Base battery systems designed to protect homes during outages.
In areas where homeowners cannot choose their electricity provider, Base offers its service through agreements with local utilities and electric cooperatives. CoServ, one of Base's utility partners, serves all three initial communities.
Base links home batteries into a grid resource for utilities
Base's technology connects individual home batteries into a coordinated energy resource that helps utilities meet demand. When the grid is running, the batteries add capacity during high-demand hours. When it goes down, Base members receive whole-home backup protection from BaseCore.
Base co-founder and CEO Zach Dell said the company is building infrastructure that can "add capacity where people live," adding that Hillwood's communities allow it to do so at scale.
Partnership targets Denton and Pilot Point, then other Hillwood markets
The partnership plans to extend to future CoServ-served homes in Landmark by Hillwood in Denton and Lantern by Hillwood in Pilot Point.
Hillwood Communities President Fred Balda said the partnership will expand across the developer's platform where feasible, including its investments in Austin, Houston, Florida and the Northeast, as Base becomes ready to serve those markets.
Existing and future homeowners within designated Hillwood Communities will receive preferred pricing. Base manages enrollment, scheduling and installation directly with participating homeowners, who can check eligibility by entering their address on a Base Power webpage dedicated to Hillwood.
