Residential Solar Panels
Custom-designed roof-mounted solar systems maximize energy production for homeowners. We handle all roof types, including asphalt, metal, and slate, with rail-mounted or ballasted options. Advanced shading analysis ensures optimal panel placement, while partnerships with top manufacturers guarantee durable components. Our installations qualify for 30% federal tax credits and state incentives, reducing upfront costs significantly.
Tesla Powerwall Storage
Integrated battery solutions provide 24/7 energy security during grid outages. As Massachusetts' first Tesla-certified installer, we offer Powerwall 2 and 3 models with smart energy management features. Systems qualify for the SMART program's 40% incentive boost and 0% Mass Save loans, making backup power financially accessible while enabling off-grid capabilities during emergencies.
Solar Trackers
AllEarth dual-axis trackers increase energy output by up to 45% compared to fixed systems. These ground-mounted units automatically follow the sun's path for maximum efficiency, featuring GPS-controlled tilt adjustments and weather-resistant construction. Ideal for properties with open land, they're backed by manufacturer warranties and remote performance monitoring for long-term reliability.
Commercial Solar Systems
Tailored solar solutions help businesses reduce operating costs while meeting sustainability goals. We design large-scale roof-mounted and ground-mounted systems with financing options that improve cash flow. Commercial installations benefit from accelerated depreciation, 30% federal tax credits, and REC revenue programs, delivering rapid ROI while enhancing corporate environmental responsibility.
EV Charging Stations
Home EV charging systems provide convenient overnight charging with smart scheduling features. Our Level 2 installations support all vehicle models and qualify for the 30% federal tax credit. We offer integrated solutions that connect charging stations with solar arrays, optimizing renewable energy use while future-proofing properties for electric transportation needs.
