We provide innovative solar solutions using proven turnkey services. We believe that overall project success depends on identifying and selecting the best ownership and financing structure for your solar energy system which jointly with making decisions regarding array location, size and installation maximizes the return to investors or stakeholders.  Some clients invest no money up front to build their solar arrays. Instead, investors fund the project and then sell energy back to the host client at a lower rate than the utility companies charge. This is known as a Power Purchase Agreement structure or “PPA”. Additionally, our organization has taken lead role in educating your community and customers about clean sustainable energy use, demonstrating your environmental stewardship.
