Non-Profit

MONEY SAVED IS MONEY PUT BACK INTO YOUR PROGRAM

Non-Profit

Non-profit organizations have discovered what many of HES Solar’s other commercial solar clients have come to know well: When you save money with solar, your organization can pass on those savings to the public and to your members by expanding services.

HES Solar has helped multiple non-profit organizations throughout San Diego make the decision to go solar. We will guide you through cost and process challenges that may initially appear to prevent switching to renewable energy. There are options that require no up-front costs to make the switch to solar energy use and begin the savings today. Our solar experts can educate you on all the incentives available and show you why right now might be the best time to go solar in order to get the maximum benefits from all available programs for solar and solar energy storage.

At HES Solar we understand how important every financial decision is and the importance of directing expenditures toward programs that benefit your mission and members. Our solar experts are here to walk you through the process, show you the various solar energy options, chart out how much money a solar system will save you, and answer any questions you have.

In 2018 alone, HES Solar installed over 2.4 megawatts of solar on non-profit organizations like the San Diego County YMCA.

Whether it is a roof-mounted system, a solar carport, a ground mount, or an energy storage system, HES Solar has a long-standing history of providing quality projects and services to local non-profit organizations. Each system is designed to uniquely meet your organization’s energy needs, and our expertise will allow you to get the most from incentive programs such as the Self Generation Incentive Program (SGIP). The savings created by solar energy can ultimately help in continuing to provide essential resources for both your organization and your members.

HOUSE OF WORSHIP
SOLAR SYSTEMS FOR CHURCHES

Holy buildings such as churches, mosques, and synagogues can experience large financial savings when they choose to invest in solar energy. The energy cost savings from the switch to self-generated, renewable energy can be directly given back to the members of the community.

HES Solar has experience installing solar energy panels on many different types of buildings and places of worship throughout San Diego County. Churches and their congregants previously constrained by the cost and process associated with switching to renewable energy now have an easier and significantly less expensive way to go solar.

Non-Profit Tax Credit

It is important to understand that non-profit organizations do not experience the same 30% tax credit as other commercial businesses. HES Solar is here to walk you through the entire process and make sure that even without the tax incentive for non-profits your business or organization can experience an optimal amount of savings. Contact our solar experts to learn how you can get the maximum benefit out of today’s incentives and rebates.
