VALUE PROPOSITION
LANDLORDS
If you own a property with a large amount of roof space, a plot of land or even a parking lot, you could consider an investment in a solar array. Thus, you would be enhancing the value of your property.
Other key benefits
- Federal and State level tax benefits
- New York City has a special Real Estate tax abatement for solar
- The array acts as a protective layer for the roof membrane, blocking UV light; UV light is the main source of roof degradation
- The property becomes more marketable as some tenants have sustainability mandates
POWER USERS
If you consume much electricity, a solar array would be a good investment to hedge your exposure to energy price fluctuations.
Other key benefits:
Demand cost can be reduced if solar is coupled with battery storage
Reduce carbon footprint
TENANTS
Your lease may allow you to install a solar array and take advantage of the benefits listed above.

SYSTEM LEASING / PPA / ROOF RENT
Power user enters into a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with IPPsolar or a financing source.
Term: usually 15-25 years.
Key Benefits
- No upfront cost, the client is simply charged monthly for the power purchased from the system
- No maintenance cost to client over the length of the contract
IPPsolar scope of work
- We fund the entire system cost, including labor, interconnection and permitting
- We customize the system's configuration and the contract to customer's needs
- We identify and source the optimal equipment from manufacturers
- We design, engineer and install the system with our own installation team
- We install the system following best practices learnt from years of experience
- We monitor and operate the system over the length of the contract
OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE
WHY IPPSOLAR FOR O&M?
In operations phase, the system needs constant monitoring as a number of factors can undermine full functioning.
Those factors can be external such as occasional abnormalities in the grid or extreme weather conditions. There could be internal factors as well such as faulty electronics at inverter level.
While most issues are relatively easy to troubleshoot, they require intimate knowledge of the way the system was designed and operates. IPPsolar has a team dedicated to all O&M tasks.
IPPsolar scope of work
- O&M services under a separate contract
- Cost on a per kW basis, usually $10-$15 per kW installed
- Minimum performance warranty options available
ENERGY STORAGE
Cost of energy storage is rapidly decreasing and that opens the way for more and more demand shaving projects.
On the East coast, in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut utilities charge high demand rates that can go up to $25 per kW per month. In the high demand rate utility territories, battery storage makes economic sense. Combined with a solar system, the utility customer may reduce his electricity cost by close to 100% in some cases.
We work with all major battery storage manufacturers and control software providers. You will be able to monitor all system components' performance through easy to use apps.

EV STATIONS
All major car manufacturers have engaged in an effort to launch electric cars as demand for EVs is growing rapidly.
Charging EVs will become a challenge particularly for EV owners in urban areas. As a result, DC Fast Charge stations in large number need to be built in order to meet the demand.
There are a number of challenges slowing this effort:
- High demand charge in congested areas
- Grid infrastructure unable to absorb demand
- Complex permitting process
IPPsolar has a lot of experience with DC Fast Charge stations. We developed and installed 15 DC Fast Charge stations in the New York metropolitan area in 2014-2015. We later sold those stations to EV Go, then a subsidiary of NRG, the large power generation company.
FOR LANDLORDS
If you own a shopping center or a property in proximity to large traffic arteries, there is an opportunity to potentially generate revenues from the installation of EV stations. In addition, EV owners tend to be affluent and would constitute an attractive customer base for the retail outlets.
