California Solar Tenant Billing

Solar tenant billing enables owners of commercial & retail multi-tenant properties to generate another stream of rental income. On-site solar energy is substantially cheaper than residential electricity from the utility, building owners can provide their tenants with a ~10% discount on energy from the utility rate while still earning a substantial return on their investment.

For example, the cost of energy for Building B from the utility is $0.35 per kWh. After installing renewable energy, the cost of onsite energy is $0.04 per kWh. Though the cost of energy went down for Building B by putting solar on the roof, the owner can still provide a discount to tenants at $0.32 per kWh while only paying $0.04 per kWh for all of Building B’s energy usage. By implementing California solar tenant billing, owners can generate an additional $500 to $1200 per unit per year, accelerating payback of the solar installation and generating additional revenue for over 20 years increasing NOI and property value.
