Commercial solar tailored to the businesses we know best

Most of our commercial work clusters into a handful of categories where solar plus storage clearly lowers operating costs and improves resilience. Here's where we tend to fit best.

Best-fit segments

Eight industries we work with the most

Solar fits a much wider range than this list, but these are the segments where the demand profile, the property type, and the operating model line up especially well for commercial PV plus storage.

01

Restaurants

Heavy refrigeration baseload, kitchen demand spikes, and zero tolerance for outages. Battery storage handles the spoilage risk.

02

Auto shops

Mid-day lift use and growing EV servicing requirements. Solar pairs with the right service-bay electrical from day one.

03

Car washes

Pump and motor loads with consistent daytime operation — a near-ideal fit for solar production timing.

04

Strip malls

Large flat roofs and parking lots, multi-tenant load. Carport solar plus EV charging as a tenant amenity.

05

Churches

Weekend-heavy load, nonprofit financing structures, and visible community-facing roofs. PPA vs ownership analysis matters.

06

Private schools

School-day weekday curve and large flat roofs. Carport solar doubles as parking shade and the math usually works.

07

Small hotels

24/7 load and meaningful demand-charge exposure. Storage often justifies itself on the rate schedule alone.

08

Light industrial

Predictable daytime production load, often with available roof or yard space. Common ground-mount and carport opportunities.
