Capabilities
Renewable Energy Development and Installation
Service websiteDesign, development, and installation of grid-connected solar and battery systems for small businesses and commercial facilities. Projects range from rooftop net-metered arrays to megawatt-scale export systems, and include integrated roof services through a partner roofing company.
- Net Metered Solar
Grid-tied rooftop solar with panel-level power optimizer monitoring. System value increases as electricity rates rise over time.
- Net Metered Solar with Battery Backup
Solar plus battery storage that continues powering critical loads during grid outages. Battery capacity can participate in utility demand-response programs such as Connected Solutions for additional revenue.
- Export Solar (REGrowth / Feed-In Tariff)
Systems tied directly to the utility grid and compensated at a fixed per-kWh rate under Rhode Island's REGrowth program. Not constrained by on-site consumption, enabling larger array designs.
- Solar System Maintenance and Modernization
Diagnosis and repair of aging solar equipment, inverter replacement, and upgrades to modern safety and power-control electronics. Includes panel removal and reinstallation to accommodate roof work.
