Lower your energy costs. Know the numbers before you commit.
We design and build solar, storage, and microgrid systems for California commercial properties. Every project starts with a detailed financial model — so you see the ROI before you spend a dollar.
Built for every type of commercial property
Office & Retail
Cut electricity costs and protect against rate increases. Solar and storage make your property more attractive to tenants while reducing one of your largest operating expenses.
Schools & Institutions
Redirect energy savings to your mission. We help campuses, districts, and nonprofits go solar with financing structures built for public and tax-exempt entities.
Multi-Tenant Properties
Turn unused rooftop into monthly revenue. Sell below-market electricity to tenants, add EV charging, and boost NOI — with streamlined billing that keeps admin overhead low.
Industrial & Agricultural
Large energy loads mean large savings potential. We design high-capacity solar and storage for warehouses, cold storage, processing facilities, and agricultural operations across California.
Your roof. Your rate schedule. Your return.
Every commercial project starts with your facility: roof condition, utility tariff, load profile, and financial goals. We design for maximum economic return — then handle permitting, installation, and commissioning so you don't have to.
- Reduce electricity costs by 30–70%
- Hedge against utility rate increases for 25+ years
- Increase property value and attract tenants
- PPAs, leases, direct purchase, and PACE financing available
- Federal ITC and applicable state incentives (commercial eligibility varies)
Cut demand charges. Keep the lights on.
Battery storage turns solar into a 24-hour tool. We've been designing integrated solar+storage since 2018 — years before most competitors touched a battery.
Our systems shave demand charges (often 30–50% of commercial bills), provide backup for critical loads, and can earn revenue through utility demand response programs. Every system is sized around your actual usage patterns.
- Backup power for critical systems during grid outages
- Participate in utility demand response programs for additional revenue
- Standalone or paired with new/existing solar
EV charging that pays for itself.
California properties without charging infrastructure are already losing tenants and employees. We design and install Level 2 and DC fast charging for workplaces, retail, multi-family, and fleet operations.
Pair chargers with solar and storage to avoid costly grid upgrades and create a revenue stream from charging fees.
- Turnkey: site assessment through ongoing network management
- Utility coordination and load management included
- Solar+storage pairing minimizes grid upgrade costs
- Revenue-generating charging fee structures
Grid-independent when it matters most.
Healthcare facilities, data centers, emergency services, and remote operations can't afford downtime. A microgrid combines solar, storage, and intelligent controls into a self-sufficient power system that islands automatically when the grid goes down.
Our designs balance economics and resilience — reducing costs during normal operations while keeping you running when others go dark.
- Island from the grid automatically during outages
- Combine solar + storage + backup generation + smart controls
- Reduce peak demand charges by 40-60%
- Ideal for campuses, compounds, and critical infrastructure
See every site, every dollar, in real time
Every client gets access to our live portfolio dashboard — not a generic monitoring app, but a purpose-built platform showing what your systems are producing, saving, and earning across every site.
- Real-time generation, consumption, and savings across your entire portfolio
- Site-by-site performance leaderboard with anomaly detection
- Automated monthly reporting with ESG metrics and CO₂ tracking
- One view across solar, storage, and EV charging assets

Pacific American Group — 1900 West Winton Ave
Self-financed rooftop solar selling power to tenants at 10% below PG&E rates. New landlord revenue, EV chargers as tenant amenity, automated billing.
Rooftop RevenueHusary 76 — Agricultural Rooftop
Rooftop solar across an active agricultural operation in Sonoma County. System designed around the working facility with no disruption to daily operations.
Commercial SolarTimber-Framed Solar Pavilion
Custom timber-framed outdoor canopy with bifacial solar panels integrated overhead. Generates clean power while creating a shaded gathering space below — solar designed into the architecture, not bolted onto it.

Your Estimated Returns
How we determine if your facility qualifies
Not every property is a fit. Our evaluation process is designed to identify the projects where solar and storage deliver genuine financial return — and to tell you early if yours isn't one of them.
Facility Usage Review
We analyze 12–24 months of interval data to understand your consumption patterns, peak demand events, and seasonal variability.
TOU & Tariff Analysis
We map your current rate schedule, identify demand charge exposure, and model the impact of California's evolving Time-of-Use structures on your energy costs.
Site Assessment
Roof condition, electrical infrastructure, structural capacity, shading, and permitting. We evaluate every variable that affects cost and timeline.
Financial Model & Recommendation
You receive a detailed financial model with projected savings, payback timeline, financing options, and a clear go/no-go recommendation before you commit a dollar.
Symmetric managed the entire installation around our production schedule — zero downtime. The system offset 85% of our electricity in year one, and the economics they projected were spot-on.
