As a building owner, are you considering an investment in solar and battery storage systems to generate clean and reliable power for your building? If so, how can you afford such a big upfront investment without breaking the bank?

Solar and battery storage systems are ideal candidates for C-PACE financing because they have high upfront costs but low operating costs and long lifespans. They can also provide economic benefits to your business in two ways. 

1) Lowering Operating Costs 

•Reducing your dependence on the grid, which can lower your costs by generating your own electricity during peak hours. 

•Increasing your energy security and resilience by storing excess solar power in batteries and using it when the sun is not shining or when the grid is down. 

2) Create Additional Revenues - selling excess power back to the grid. 

Investing in solar and battery storage can be expensive and tapping into precious liquidity can be a major roadblock. This is where C-PACE comes into play, having been used to close over $5 billion in financing for over 4,000 projects. Here’s a list of C-PACE benefits that can help you greenlight your project:
