Rooftop Commercial Solar Solution Project Case Study

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County Rooftop Commercial Solar

Creating measurable life success for every child served through their programs, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County has committed to a more sustainable future for their organization and the children they mentor.

Purpose-driven by equality, inclusion and equitability, this non-profit organization saw an opportunity to reduce operating costs while increasing their sustainability through rooftop solar modules.

California has seen some of the highest electricity rate growth in the country, just as this Orange County organization observed as they incurred higher and higher electricity bills. Many businesses have seen their rates doubled in the last few years – while utilities continue to parade a wide variety of reasons like maintenance and infrastructure costs as to why rates will continue to rise. 

Seeking to reduce their electricity bills, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County partnered with Revel Energy to design a custom energy solution, designed to fill out as much of the available rooftop space as possible with large-format commercial solar panels.

Revel’s skilled engineering and project management teams designed and constructed a 206 kW rooftop solar system that uses about 460 commercial solar panels. The solar modules are connected by 2 inverters to offset 60% of the electricity the building would typically use during the day. 

Working with Santa Ana authorities and code enforcement throughout the process, Revel’s expert team ensured the project received all necessary certifications and permits for efficient interconnection with Southern California Edison to achieve permission to operate. 

The system is expected to produce more than $2.6 million dollars in electricity savings over its 30-year lifespan. As a non-profit, new IRA rules provide access to incentives and programs like the solar investment tax credit combined with state and federal bonus depreciation – this rooftop commercial solar solution quickly pays for itself.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County continues to support youth through one-on-one mentoring, while ensuring their organization can look toward a more sustainable future with commercial solar modules installed on the roof.

Revel Energy’s team of commercial and industrial solar specialists offer turn key solutions for California businesses and non-profit organizations to lower their electricity costs and increase cash flow.
