Commercial Solar

Solar installations enhance property value and appeal to sustainability-conscious tenants and customers.

Purchasing or Financing of
Commercial Solar Systems

Investing in a commercial solar system can significantly reduce energy costs and enhance sustainability, but choosing the right financial approach is key. Businesses can either purchase a system outright for maximum long-term savings and tax benefits or opt for flexible financing solutions like Power Purchase Agreements (PPA), leases, or loans to minimize upfront costs.

Each option has its own advantages, depending on your organization's financial strategy, energy goals, and budget. Whether you prefer full ownership or a no-investment alternative, there’s a solar financing solution that fits your needs.

Community Solar in New York

New York businesses and residents can benefit from commercial solar systems and Community Distributed Generation (CDG), also known as community solar.

  • Commercial Solar: Core Development Group provides Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) services with competitive pricing and flexible financing, including customizable Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) for businesses, non-profits, and municipalities.
  • Community Solar: Allows businesses and residents to subscribe to a shared solar project and receive bill credits without needing on-site panels—ideal for renters or properties unsuitable for solar.
  • Property Leasing: Landowners with 5-100 acres or buildings with 100,000+ sq. ft. of flat roof can lease property for community solar farms, earning long-term lease payments while Core Development Group handles project development.

New York Remote Crediting

New York Remote Crediting is a new form of sharing distributed generation bill credits from generator-host accounts to satellite accounts. Under remote crediting, a solar generator host can specify that credits be allocated to up to ten (10) satellite customers. One of these customers must be the host itself (if the host wants credits applied to its bill); the remaining nine (9) customers can be unrelated to the host and may have multiple accounts for each satellite customer.

Landowners and businesses can work with Core Development Group to build remote crediting solar farms (host) across New York State, creating an opportunity for more New Yorkers to gain the benefits of solar. Businesses, not-for-profit organizations, municipal government agencies, and schools, can subscribe (as satellites) to the remote crediting solar farm (host) and save money. Remote crediting is a mechanism that allows customers to receive credits on their electric utility bill from solar, not on their roof or property. Remote crediting is an easy way for electric customers to help green the grid and save money at the same time.

Benefit from commercial solar system Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) experience including the most competitive pricing options in the market without compromising quality or efficiency or project timelines. A variety of flexible financial options are available for NY-based commercial solar systems, including Power Purchase Agreements (PPA).

A power-purchase agreement is unlike outright ownership, as organizations (businesses, municipalities, educational institutions) play host to a solar array owned and operated by someone else. The organization then purchases the electricity from the array under a long-term agreement.
