Get Compensated with 3 Easy Steps
We provide a value-added offering for your business – helping your businesses take control of their energy needs and reduce their carbon footprint! Join our commercial solar referral program and earn money with 3 easy steps.
1) Engage
Have conversations with commercial building or landowners. Solar is an Investment that Pays for Itself – Depending on incentives and roof details, a target return on investment for a cash purchase is approximately 10% -20% per year with a payback of 5 to 10 years. After the payback period is reached, the commercial solar system will continue to produce electricity for over 25 years.
2) Send us a utility bill copy & site details
We just need a little information for your opportunity and their utility data to develop a custom commercial solar proposal for a specific site.
Core Development Group can provide custom quote that includes solar system specifications, aerial image with location and quantity of panels, solar system size and likely output per annum in kWh, capacity and output, financial model, analysis of applicable incentives, applicable terms & conditions.
You can close the deal (white label), we will close the deal for you, or we can work together to close the deal. Our commercial solar experts will then handle the quotation process, provide assistance, and answer questions.
3) Collect a Commission
Our referral consultants are our advocates and can select between upfront payments or residual commissions. Every year thousands of commercial and industrial businesses make the switch to solar, so don’t delay.
Our Service Area
Core Development Group offers a large geographic footprint of service across the USA providing energy advisors, strategic partners, and financial consultants to access commercial onsite solar systems for a wide range of businesses.
Recommending commercial solar is smart and good for business. There is a wide range of reasons for building owners and businesses to choose onsite solar generation. Reducing overall energy costs, energy independence, and supporting the environment are nice starting points, but there are so many other reasons for businesses to select solar. Below are additional reasons why all businesses should consider commercial solar systems:
- Solar power offers a great return on investment
- Reduces business operating costs with lower monthly electricity bills
- Controls future energy bills and provides a hedge against inflation
- Increases property values
- Lowers tax liability with the federal solar investment tax credit (ITC) and accelerated depreciation
- Corporate sustainability benefits and lower carbon footprint
- Potential to access State and local incentives
Important Things to Consider
There are a few additional factors that you’ll need to consider when evaluating your contact’s potential for solar.
- Own the building or property and have a large unobstructed area on the roof or grounds
- Have a roof that is in good condition (for rooftop solar)
- Higher portion of electrical consumption is done during the day, especially in summer or winter seasons.
- Have a pass-through ownership structure with significant tax liability
- Company has publicly stated sustainability goals or made commitments to consumers
- Located in an area with higher utility electricity rates
- Located in a state with solar incentives
For the right company, solar is an easy sell that pays for itself. However, solar may not make as much financial sense for companies with shaded facilities, a roof or electrical service that requires repair or upgrade, or who do not have worthy business credit.
