Discover AES has some very nice Li-ion batteries that work directly with Schneider Electric and soon Outback.
http://discoveraes.com/ Almost all of the LFP batteries are selling for about $1,000 per usable KWH. They are expensive but if you do the math, and pick a company that will be there, they could outlive you.
