How It Works

New Columbia Solar > How It Works

How We Can Help You

I want to power my home or business with solar power

Go solar and save on your electricity bill. You can get started for as little as $0 down and simply pay a low, locked-in rate for the solar power the system produces. You only pay for the solar power, not the solar panels, which helps you save up to 100% on your electricity bill. Not only that, NCS maintains the system and takes care of all the paperwork so all you have to worry about is savings.

I want to host a solar power system on my property

Generate cash in your pocket while allowing members of your community to benefit from solar power. Put your roof or parking-lot to work by hosting an NCS solar system. NCS maintains and operates the system with minimal impact to your site. All you do is collect rent while making our world a better place.

I want to replace my roof

Need to replace your roof, upgrade your air conditioning and heating system, or just need cash now? Host an NCS solar system and we can finance your cash needs. Advance your cause and save the world.

New Columbia Solar will not only replace my roof but they will install solar at no cost?

New Columbia Solar will finance your roof replacement and install solar at no cost to you in most cases. NCS will factor that price into the overall economics of the solar project.

a

Is the solar really no cost?

Yes! NCS will pay for and manage the entire installation and ongoing maintenance, including all the paperwork, so customers can stay focused on their businesses.

a

What happens at the end of the term?

At the end of your term you have three options:

  1. If you like how things are going, we can extend the contract for a few more years
  2. You may purchase your system
  3. We can remove the system at absolutely no cost to you and remediate the property to its original condition
a

What happens with weather / snow?

Structural integrity is our first priority when engineering a solar system. Our engineers verify that your building will bear the weight of snow and the solar array. Then, we have a third party confirm this information. Every building is different, but our experience is that most buildings in the District are structurally able to support a solar energy system. Also, our engineers specifically design systems that can withstand extreme weather occurrences.

a

Is there a lot of maintenance needed?

No. Once installed, NCS will monitor the systems remotely, and will only need access 1-2 times per year for regular cleaning and maintenance.

a

I can’t put solar on my roof because of too much shade – does New Columbia Solar offer this thing called Community Solar?

New Columbia Solar is trailblazing the community solar efforts in the District. Whether you’re in Northeast or Southwest, you can utilize the power of the sun without having panels on your roof. With community solar, you can benefit from solar energy even when you can’t put solar directly on your roof. We’ll connect you with a solar system in your community and every month, you receive a credit on your electricity bill for the energy produced by your share.
