The potential for small commercial solar in the US is virtually limitless. According to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission wind and solar energy installations accounted for all the new utility-scale generating capacity placed into service in April 2015. More alternative energy has been installed in the last 4 months than in all twelve months of 2014. This is the time for your business to become more independent from its utility.

Solar is real and here to stay. “Every three minutes, the U.S. solar industry flips the switch on another completed solar project,” says the president and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association. Across the United States, there are 600,000 individual solar installations—on residential and business rooftops, parking lots, landfills, deserts, and fields… four thousand schools now have solar, where the energy savings can literally make the difference in being able to pay teacher salaries and buy textbooks. According to Bloomberg New Energy Finance, the sun is now the fastest-growing source of U.S. electricity. Solar production has more than tripled in New York City and Westchester County, in about two years, and Jonathan Mir, head of North American power and utilities at Lazard Freres & Co. LLC in New York said, “We will see renewables increasingly make up part of the resources stack just because it makes economic sense…I don’t think people can simply say with a straight face anymore that renewables are more expensive.” At Lionshead Energy we design custom solar arrays and financing options to best fit your business’s needs.
