HOW DOES IT WORK?


Commercial solar can be installed on company-owned rooftops, ground-mounted on your land, or erected as canopies over property or parking lots. With deep industry knowledge and a vast network of providers, Usource can select a single installer option, or create and issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) to bid out the project to vet and select installation proposals from multiple vendors.

POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT (PPA) OPTIONS

PPAs provide electricity at a lower cost than current electricity rates, as well as future price certainty for up to 20 years. The PPA allows the solar equipment to be installed at no cost to you, and you are not responsible for installation and maintenance. There are many ways to structure solar PPAs and much care should be taken to ensure all risks and benefits have been weighed.

Because of the complexity and financial impacts of these agreements, we highly recommend having a professional energy consultant work with you to maximize savings and mitigate risk.
