Our Process

Solar Gain offers a smooth, comprehensive process for businesses looking to harness the clean energy of solar power. As an Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contractor, Solar Gain champions every phase of the installation process for your commercial solar panel system, including the design, delivery, construction, commissioning and handover. Every step of our process is designed for ease of use, keeping in mind the needs of your schedule and your budget.

Step 1: Energy Evaluation and System Proposal

Our process begins with a free energy evaluation, where we review your business’s energy usage and discuss your financial goals. We will evaluate the solar exposure of your worksite and find the optimum size and type of solar energy system to fit the needs of your business. Based on our findings, we will provide an estimate and review the financing options that best fit with your goals.

After you decide on a commercial solar system, we will create a proposal to cover every angle of the installation. Based on the information we gather during the evaluation, the proposal will include the best type of system for you, the size, and the installation location. Our thorough financial evaluation contains various financing options and information on solar incentives for businesses and tax credits and rebates. We will also provide maintenance and warranty details.

Step 2: Design and Installation of Solar Panels For Your Business

This is where we transform your ideas into reality. Based on the needs of your business and the system specifications we’ve evaluated previously, we get down to business. Solar Gain will help you find the best option for your financial needs and situation then prepare the appropriate permit requests with the utility company. Our engineers will design the best possible system for your business and power usage, based on the information you provide throughout the process.

We take all of your input and needs to heart when crafting your system so that it fits your needs perfectly. The next step is installing the system in a timely manner.

Step 3: Commissioning/Flip the Switch

After construction, a county or city official and a representative from the utility company will inspect your system. Once it clears inspection, Solar Gain will start the commissioning process, which ensures that your solar panel installation goes smoothly and the system is working properly.  We will walk you through the photovoltaic installation, answering any questions you might have along the way. After this process is completed, your business can start saving money on energy costs while also making the world around you a better place.

Even after the final panel is installed in your business’s commercial solar panel system, our job doesn’t end. To ensure your system provides optimal output for as long as possible, we will continue to monitor your system. We will also help to educate you on monitoring the system’s electrical production through an online solar power monitoring terminal, which will be specific to the equipment installed on location.
