Solar Power Solutions

We live in an age of electrification where every homeowner has the opportunity to explore their energy options. Washington’s retail rate net metering, state sales tax exemption, and federal tax credit mean that for the vast majority of homeowners, solar is a cleaner, more affordable way to power their home and build equity. With the addition of optional battery backup, homeowners can add resiliency and peace of mind.

Commercial solar is a broad term that covers all manner of projects, from businesses and churches wanting to add solar to their properties, to real estate developers looking to build solar homes, to cities and municipalities responding to RFPs. We welcome the full range of commercial partnerships, both great and small. Find the information that’s pertinent to your situation.

Nonprofits serve some of the most vulnerable communities and important causes in our society. Every dollar they can save on an electricity bill is a dollar that can instead go to their front line services where it’s needed the most. However, nonprofits do not have the benefit of the generous federal tax credits that help home and business owners go solar, and they are often working with tight budgets that make the upfront investment necessary for solar untenable. That’s where the Western Solar Initiative comes in.
