Commercial, Industrial & Utility

PCDM targets commercial, industrial and utility/greenfield scaled initiatives. Rooftop arrays, property adjacent or greenfield development.

Commercial 75 kW - 500 kW

Commercial solar refers to the use of solar energy systems by businesses and organizations to power their operations. This typically involves the installation of photovoltaic (PV) panels on the rooftops of commercial buildings, such as offices, warehouses, and retail stores, or on adjacent land. These solar panels convert sunlight into electricity, which can be used directly by the business, stored for later use, or fed back into the grid. Commercial solar installations help businesses reduce their electricity costs, decrease their dependence on traditional energy sources, and lower their carbon footprint. This approach is attractive to businesses aiming to demonstrate environmental responsibility and sustainability, and it can also provide a hedge against rising energy prices. Furthermore, commercial solar projects can benefit from government incentives, tax credits, and rebates, making them a financially viable solution for many businesses.

Industrial 250 kW - 5 MW

Industrial solar refers to the large-scale application of solar energy technologies in industrial settings. This involves the installation of extensive solar panels or solar farms, often on unused land or rooftops of industrial buildings. These solar arrays capture sunlight and convert it into electricity, providing a renewable and clean energy source for industrial operations. The goal is to reduce reliance on fossil fuels, lower carbon emissions, and decrease energy costs. Industrial solar can include photovoltaic systems for direct electricity generation or solar thermal systems for heating purposes. This approach is increasingly adopted by industries aiming to boost their sustainability practices and comply with environmental regulations. Additionally, industrial solar often incorporates advanced technologies like energy storage systems and smart grid integration to optimize energy use and supply stability.

Greenfield 1 MW - 10 MW

Greenfield solar refers to solar energy projects that are developed on undeveloped, often agricultural or rural land, which has not been previously used for any construction or industrial activity. These projects typically involve large-scale solar farms, where vast arrays of photovoltaic (PV) panels are installed to harness sunlight and convert it into electricity. The term “greenfield” contrasts with “brownfield” projects, which are developed on land that has been previously used for industrial purposes and may require remediation. Greenfield solar projects are advantageous due to the availability of large, open spaces that are ideal for extensive solar arrays. This allows for the generation of significant amounts of renewable energy, contributing to the reduction of carbon emissions and reliance on fossil fuels. However, these projects sometimes face challenges, including environmental concerns about land use and the impact on local ecosystems and agricultural land.
