We're Not Just Talk

See what local business owners have to say about partnering with GreenSpark:

"As a family-owned and operated business, Messner Flooring chose to go solar to strengthen our business for current and future generations of owners, customers, and the community. It was important for us to partner with another local, trusted, community-focused business - GreenSpark was professional, experienced, and made the process simple."
Peter Messner, Messner Flooring
"GreenSpark Solar is a small enough company to think through all the details. They are very hands-on and they gave us one main point of contact. They are also big enough to work on the overall project needs, and they gave us customized solutions."
Rob Fontaine​, Upstate Door
"I worked with the GreenSpark team on several projects to improve HARBEC’s efficiency and bottom line with renewable energy. GreenSpark is an industry leader in our region - their experience and professionalism stands out. They continue to be wonderful partners, and I recommend GreenSpark for any business (or residence) thinking about exploring solar energy."
Bob Bechtold, HARBEC Plastics
"Because of the solar system we've been able to hold our prices pretty steady... and that's something the customers may not initially realize but it's something important to us."
Herm Young, Young Sommer Winery
"How do I feel about having the array in my backyard? I think it's fantastic. I love having my own power station, per se. We don't have to answer to anybody and it's just a good feeling. We're pretty independent people and this just furthers our demand for that."
Doug Allen, Long Acre Farms
“As farmers, we spend a lot of money on electricity for our storage, and we know electricity costs are going to go up. Having solar reduce or eliminate our electricity costs is both economically and environmentally strategic for us.”
Ted Furber, Cherry Lawn Fruit Farm​

Solar Options

Owning Solar

If your company would like to maximize savings and reduce your electricity costs to $0, then owning a solar array will provide the greatest return on your investment.

The Benefits

Owning a solar project offers the ability to utilize significant incentives including:

...which combine to cover up to 70% of the cost of your solar array.

GreenSpark solar packages are turnkey, so we will help your business secure all available incentives, and take care of everything: from design and engineering to permitting, construction, and interconnection.

Financing options are available to companies that would like to minimize upfront costs.

Examples

Community Solar for Businesses

The Benefits

Community solar and power purchase agreements are great options that make solar accessible for most organizations. Through a power purchase agreement, companies can source their energy from community solar projects.

This means businesses can secure a discount for clean, local solar power and take control of their electricity expenses with a fixed, reduced rate.

Community solar is the option of choice for many large companies or institutions that would like to achieve sustainability goals easily and with $0 capital investment.
