How solar works

From sunlight on the roof to power in the house.

See the energy path first — sun, panels, inverter, home, then storage or the grid. After the physics, we show how we design a system around your house and the New York programs that actually apply.

The process

Three steps. Your house, your numbers.

We check which New York programs may apply, then design a system that fits your roof. If your home isn't a good fit, we'll tell you.

Thomas S. · Design Expert

I use our solar design software to look at your energy usage and your home and build a custom system. Then I check which state incentives you may qualify for. A lot of NYS programs never make it into the first conversation.

Melody S. · Buffalo Area Manager

Showing homeowners how much they can save and telling them they can ditch their electric company is my favorite part of the job. I love the 'this is too good to be true' look when I show someone their number.

Step 03 · Installation

Installation

Chris E. · Energy Consultant

I always stop by on installation day. People are amazed at how low-profile the panels look. Watching them get excited and showing them the app that tracks their production is the best part.

No obligation

Ditch the Electric Company.

The only way to know your real number is to run your address. It takes about 30 seconds.
