Solaris Energy | B Corp

As we get ready to take time away from our desks and projects to be with family, friends, and loved ones over the holiday, we are reminded of how much we love what we do. We're thankful that our work can contribute to building a healthier future for those we hold most dear and the planet we all rely on. Thanks to all of you who are part of our business and community, helping us replace fossil fuels with the power of the sun and make clean air and energy available to everyone.

Our goal with every project we develop is to save our clients money that they can reinvest back into their communities while also helping reduce environmental impact. We are committed to our work, the urgency with which we need to address the #climatecrisis, and making investing in #solar and a bright future available to everyone. We're proud to share the value and scale of our new project leads from 2024 to date: ?? Estimated Value:?$1,014,000,000 ???Size:?351 MW ???Sites:?313 These projects could prevent about 258 metric tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere in their first year of operation. If built, that’s equivalent to: ?? Preventing 284,093 pounds of coal from being burned? ?? Preventing 29,006 gallons of gas from being used Learn more about our progress in 2024, our plans for the coming year, and how you can be involved: https://lnkd.in/gGxfdfGJ

Our work focuses on financing and developing commercial & industrial #solar projects, but we are ardent supporters of the spread of solar for residential, too! This report on the economic, environmental, and health benefits of solar in our own backyard only reinforces why we do what we do and illuminates many of the reasons we believe access to solar for all is so important. #accesstosolar #solarfinancing #solarpower #renewableenergy

Our Ace Portfolio officially closed! The raise exceeded our fundraising goal with $601K invested in the sun from individuals and companies! The portfolio will provide short-term returns and long-term revenue from 21 commercial-scale solar installations located across the United States. We were thrilled to have 49 investors take part, with investments ranging from $500 to $126,000.?This close marks an important milestone for our team as co-investors in the Ace Portfolio. We are excited to be not just the developer but now an owner and direct investor in these important, return-generating legacy Solaris projects. Stay tuned for future opportunities to invest in our solar future! #solarenergy #solarfuture #solarinvesting

While we at Solaris Energy are moving into our 16th year of business, our leadership team has decades more combined experience. If we had a #solar & storage industry crystal ball, here’s what we believe is likely to happen and the role we hope to play in furthering the uptake and installation of C&I projects. Despite uncertainty, our collective #renewable future is looking bright!?? Featuring Alex Blackmer, Nick Perugini, and Jessica Rawley

When we look to the future of #renewableenergy and #solarpower, we are heartened by the generations of students and early-career installers helping to grow our industry across the country. Programs, including this installation and certification pilot through?YouthBuild Global?and key partners, will help fill the?#greenskills?gap and develop the workforce we need to continue this bright and critical trajectory!

It’s Election Day! Our office is closed today to provide team members maximum availability and flexibility to VOTE and support civic engagement.

We’re closing out our 15th anniversary celebration with this video of founder Alex Blackmer describing the vision and passion he’s held since high school that eventually seeded Solaris Energy: “I remember thinking, there ought to be some way we can replace some of this oil with solar.” Our team is so proud of the work we’ve done to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy since our founding. Looking toward the next 15 years, we are committed to leveraging financing options to drive a brighter future through solar and storage at scale! And you can join us — just a few more days left to get in on a piece of your very own Solaris Energy-developed solar project. Be part of the next 15: https://lnkd.in/gff6BUnX

Bees ??, honey ??, and native plants ??, oh my! The smart combination of agriculture and solar (aka agrivoltaics) is one of our favorite projects to help make a reality. This one in our own backyard we added a little extra something - bees! Our thriving bee farm is not only buzzing around some high-producing solar, but pollinates native plants and makes delicious honey too!
