When planning or reviewing a Commercial solar installation, it's important to follow a checklist that covers technical, regulatory, financial, and safety aspects. Here's a comprehensive list of key checkpoints: 1. Site Assessment Roof orientation & tilt – Ideally south-facing in the northern hemisphere. Shading analysis – Check for trees, buildings, chimneys, etc. Roof condition – Ensure the roof is in good shape and can support panels. Available space – Enough area for desired system size (kW). 2. Energy Consumption Review Analyze historical electricity bills (past 12 months). Estimate future energy needs (e.g., EVs, heat pumps). 3. System Design Choose system size (kW) based on energy needs. Select type of system: Grid-tied / Off-grid Hybrid (with battery) Determine panel type (monocrystalline vs polycrystalline vs thin film). Choose inverter type (string, micro, or hybrid). Include battery storage (if applicable). 4. Financial Evaluation Get multiple quotes from certified installers. Evaluate: System cost per watt Payback period ROI (Return on Investment) Check eligibility for: Federal/state incentives or tax credits Local rebates Net metering programs Consider solar loans, leases, or PPAs (Power Purchase Agreements). 5. Permits and Approvals Local building permits Utility interconnection agreement HOA approvals (if required) Fire and structural safety clearances 6. Installation Checks Proper panel alignment and secure mounting Correct wiring and grounding Inverter and battery properly installed Weatherproofing and roof penetrations sealed 7. System Inspection and Commissioning City/municipal inspection Utility inspection and meter swap (if net metering) System commissioning by the installer Test for expected performance and energy output 8. Monitoring and Maintenance Set up monitoring system (mobile/web dashboard) Understand maintenance needs (e.g., panel cleaning, inverter checks) Know the warranty coverage: Panel performance (20–25 years) Inverter (5–15 years) Workmanship (typically 5–10 years) 9. Documentation Retain copies of: Contracts and warranties Inspection reports Utility agreements Manuals for panels/inverters Monitoring app setup info
