Monetize your rooftop
Install a custom solar system to meet your own energy needs and maximize your utility savings with an on-site solar system.
Use your property to host a large scale community solar array, monetize your rooftop, and get paid annual rent for otherwise unused space.
We partner with industry-leading manufacturers using the best panels on the market, enabling us to outfit your business with a technologically advanced solar system. From the day that your system goes live, you can have complete confidence in its performance, reliability, and value for years to come.
Our expertise is rooted in battery systems, dating back to 2005, when our CEO and COO competed in the US DOE Solar Decathlon, engineering, installing, and operating a hydrogen fuel cell to store energy collected by photovoltaic systems. Today, we design and install battery systems which allow buildings to remain powered in the event of an outage or to reduce demand charges.
You can differentiate your property and attract high-earning tenants with the addition of EV chargers to your facility. New York State offers several programs to provide discounts and incentives on EV workplace charging station installations.
Electric Vehicles + EV ChargingOur Work
EmPower Solar completed a 600 kW roof-mounted system for Estée Lauder Corporation in December 2011. The system utilizes almost two thousand SunPower high-efficiency panels, allowing Estée Lauder to maximize the power output of the system given the amount of roof space on the building.
A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with California- based Tioga Energy, who is the owner and financier of the system, enabled Estée Lauder to be cash-positive from day one and see significant financial savings over the term of the PPA.
This system proved to be such a significant cost-saving asset for Estée Lauder that they chose to expand their system with the addition of a 1,457 kW ground mount installation and 12 EV charging stations in 2019.
See MoreEmPower Solar completed this 400 kW rooftop installation for Riverhead Building Supply in Calverton, New York. Unique to this project was the racking solution that EmPower Solar used to fasten each solar panel to the standing seam roof of the building.
EmPower Solar mechanically fastened each solar module to the seams of the roof using small clamps, eliminating the need to make any roof penetrations and the system to be installed without the use of rails, providing significant cost savings. While this mounting method requires absolute precision when implemented on such a large installation, EmPower Solar was able to complete the installation on time and on budget, and ultimately develop one of the largest flush-mounted contiguous solar arrays on Long Island.

In accordance with the Sisters of St. Joseph’s Sustainable Land Ethic Statement, the land parcel, which was designated as degraded woodlands, was chosen to host the array. More than 50 trees were saved from the wooded area and were transplanted elsewhere on the property.
The system is the first on Long Island to take advantage of the new Community Distributed Generation (CDG) tariff. The community solar array provides community solar credits to the Sisters of St. Joseph to offset various electric bills on the property, as well as 63% of their current electricity needs.
