Commercial Solar Development & Integration

Our development and integration process first begins by understanding you and your needs. Our goal is to save you money and not just to sell your business a solar system. After you provide us with 12 months of your energy bills, we complete a comprehensive site survey. Next comes a detailed Energy Analysis, which weighs in the factors and information you provided to us about your business’s needs. Finally, we compare solar production against your energy usage in 15-minute data points, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. For every customer proposal we complete, we conduct many hours of detailed analysis to ensure that we’re presenting the most accurate and complete options for you.
