With rising electricity prices, many tax-exempt organizations, such as schools, churches, local governments, and more are going solar. After all, the solar panels Marshfield, WI trusts can save you money and more! At Northwind Solar, our solar power systems offer cost savings and financial stability, as well as providing good stewardship of the earth's resources. The Process Step 1 – Consultation Call us. It all begins with us getting to know you, your organization, and your organization's goals for solar. There are no site visits until you are ready. At Northwind Solar, we believe you should have a basic understanding of solar, know what size system might work well for the organization, how much it may cost, and what kind of incentives and financing are available. There are usually a lot of questions – we find a phone conversation works best at this point in our relationship. An informed customer is our best customer. We will ask for your last 12 electric bills. Why? Everybody uses electricity differently. Your electric bill will show us exactly how many kWh of electricity your organization uses each month and what rate schedule you are being billed on. The rate schedule your organization is being billed on is important to fully understand the impact solar can make on your facility. We will also get your address, and we will do an aerial search and sizing of your facility – as well as detect any potential shading issues. We will design a system (or two) that will best suit the way your organization uses electricity, the available solar resource, and your budget. Then, based on your feedback, we can modify that design until we reach the design that is right for your organization. Step 2 – The Site Visit and Project Planning After your organization understands solar power, its costs, energy generation, and how it will work at your organization, an experienced Solar Design Consultant will schedule a visit with you. We will look over your roof, verify your solar resource, and evaluate your electrical system. A thorough site evaluation is critical to the successful design and installation of your solar electric system. We will work with all stakeholders in your organization to create a plan to move the project forward. The result is a firm, customized, turnkey solar installation proposal for you and your tax-exempt organization to consider. Step 3 – You Are Ready to Go Solar! Once we have that perfect system designed for your organization – one that meets your energy goals and your budget, we will enter into a purchase agreement with you. At this meeting, we will sign utility interconnection paperwork and apply for any incentives you may qualify for. We will also collect the equipment deposit. 80+ Years of Combined Experience Call for a free estimate on a new solar power system for your tax-exempt organization.
