Title • DC United “When we opened Audi Field in 2018, we made a commitment to reducing our environmental impact and mitigating climate change. New Columbia Solar’s best-in-class solar paneling strengthens our position as one of the most environmentally-friendly entertainment destinations in Washington, D.C.”

Co-Founder & CEO • One Eight Distilling “Distilling great whiskeys, vodka and gin is an energy intensive business. We knew from day one that we wanted to create a green distillery that looked for every opportunity to reduce our environmental impact. Arcadia and New Columbia Solar made the process of becoming the first solar powered distillery in the nation’s capital easy for us."

Vice President of Development • The Menkiti Group “In all of our work, we set high expectations for success.  This requires great partners to help execute complex projects and develop innovative solutions under tight constraints.  We have found a great partner in New Columbia Solar and have relied on their expertise time after time to deliver high-impact solar solutions for our portfolio."  

Director of Business Operations • Kipp DC "With our primary focus being on the students, having an experienced and thoughtful solar partner is of the utmost importance to a successful project. Partnering with New Columbia Solar (NCS) allowed us to rest more easily knowing that we could focus on education while NCS focused on all the plans and work involved in installing the system."

Founder • Justina’s Hair Gallery “I jumped on DC’s solar program to help save electricity costs. As a beauty salon we use a lot of electricity. With my 12 kW system, I’m buying about 70% less electricity from Pepco because the solar panels generate the rest. The New Columbia Solar team was so professional, we hardly realized they were there during construction. My customers are excited about it and everyone in the neighborhood is talking about it.”  

Owner • Powell Manufacturing “I had no second thoughts about going solar and it’s been a win-win all around. I get to save money, help educate other businesses like mine in Ward 7 about solar, with no upfront cost. New Columbia Solar did all of the work and now I save 15 – 20% on my electricity bill. I’ve recommended New Columbia to 15 businesses and decided to have them install solar on my home”

Creative Manager • Sinai House “Our primary reason for installing solar was to save cost for the families living here. Every little bit makes a big difference when you’re earning minimum wage and trying to get back on your feet and they’re now saving about 30%. New Columbia Solar was great to work with, they went above and beyond and helped us resolve issues that had nothing to do with the solar system. They helped us find a lower cost solution for roof repairs, resolved a problem with another energy company and introduced us to other energy savings programs. They took the time to educate us and made it effortless. Thanks New Columbia Solar!”
