Commercial solar & battery storage
Power your business.
Plan for what’s next.
Solar and battery storage designed around your facility, your energy use, and your bottom line. SunSource brings planning, engineering, and installation together so you can move forward with a clear plan.
Why solar for your business
Your energy investment should support your business.
For business owners, property owners, and facility teams, a useful solar project starts with practical goals: managing costs, using the site well, and preparing for what comes next.
Manage operating costs
Generate electricity onsite and evaluate how solar can reduce purchased power over the life of the project.
Put your property to work
Make productive use of suitable roof and site space, with the design shaped by the building and its use.
Strengthen resilience
Pair solar with a properly designed storage and backup system to support the loads your business prioritizes.
Plan with greater clarity
Understand the costs, projected production, utility assumptions, and financing options before committing.
Prepare for changing needs
Consider business growth, new equipment, operating hours, and future electrical demand in the plan.
Advance your energy goals
Connect clean energy investment with practical goals for your property, operations, and long-term sustainability.
Solar + battery storage
Power generation.
Practical resilience.
A connected plan.
Your operating hours, major equipment, and utility rate structure all shape the system. We help you evaluate solar and storage as parts of the same energy strategy.
Generate power onsite
Size solar around the property’s potential and the way your business uses electricity.
Evaluate where storage fits
Consider how storing energy can support your usage pattern and the functions you want backed up.
Define the backup priorities
Identify essential loads and desired runtime. Backup requires equipment and a system specifically configured for those needs.
The business case
Make the decision with the full picture.
A sound recommendation brings together the facility, the financial plan, and the people responsible for both. We help your team understand what is included, what is projected, and which assumptions drive the numbers.
What we review together
Energy use & utility rates
Start with bills, usage patterns, and the way your utility charges for electricity.
Site & system performance
Review the roof, electrical capacity, solar production, and any storage requirements.
Project costs & structure
Compare the full scope, payment or financing options, and long-term responsibilities.
Timing & delivery
Account for permitting, utility interconnection, construction access, and business operations.
One team, start to finish
From the first questions
to a working system.
SunSource coordinates the project from early planning through commissioning, with a clear scope and a shared understanding of the next step.
Understand the business
We start with your electricity use, facility plans, and the financial and operating goals behind the project.
Design for the site
Engineering connects the building, electrical infrastructure, solar potential, and storage priorities in one system plan.
Build the financial plan
Evaluate project costs, estimated performance, and financing structures with the assumptions clearly explained.
Coordinate the approvals
Plan permitting, utility interconnection, procurement, and the documentation needed to move the project forward.
Construct & commission
Coordinate installation, inspections, and activation, with access and electrical work planned around your facility.
Support the long term
Clarify monitoring, warranties, service contacts, and ownership responsibilities so your team knows what comes next.
Start with what you have. Your utility bills, property address, and business goals give us a useful place to begin.
SunSource project stories
Real facilities.
Long-term energy decisions.
These nonprofit projects show SunSource’s approach to operating costs, building use, and resilience. For businesses, the same planning discipline is adapted to the property and commercial goals.
Coastside Lutheran Church
A building used throughout the week needs an energy plan that reflects that activity. Coastside’s solar and battery project connects operating-cost priorities with the church’s role as a community resource during outages.

Bethlehem Lutheran Church
For Bethlehem, energy costs compete with the programs and people its building serves. Its project shows how solar planning can connect a facility’s daily use with its long-term financial priorities.

Before you begin
Questions worth
asking early.
Every property comes with its own considerations. We’ll help your team work through the details that affect your project.
Can we start with solar and evaluate storage later?
Yes. Solar and storage can be evaluated together or as separate phases. Planning for future storage early helps identify equipment and electrical requirements before the initial design is finalized.
What if we lease our building?
Start with the lease, landlord approval, roof rights, and how long the business expects to occupy the property. Those details help determine whether a project and its proposed structure fit the site.
Will installation interrupt our business?
The project plan should address site access, work areas, and any required electrical shutdowns. SunSource coordinates the installation approach around facility needs and discusses expected interruptions as the scope is developed.
What should we bring to the first conversation?
Recent utility bills, the property address, and a few notes about your operating hours and goals are a useful starting point. If available, include roof information, interval usage data, and planned equipment or facility changes.
