Schools and Non-Profits - Solar Connection Solar Connection

Solar solutions that strengthen schools and communities.

We know that running a school or non-profit means every dollar matters. Solar energy helps you redirect money from utility bills back into what matters most – your students, your programs, and your community. With today’s incentives and streamlined installation options, going solar is more achievable than ever.

Why solar makes sense for schools and non-profits:

Decrease operating costs and carbon footprint
Ability to reallocate expenses to a variety of educational necessities
Variety of on-site educational benefits in the areas of math, science and trades
Low maintenance
Improve community reputation

Investment Tax Credits Available

Congress recently changed the rules for the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) for non-profits, which helps cover up to 30% of solar project costs.

To qualify for the ITC, new projects must start construction before July 4, 2026, or be up and running by the end of 2027.

Powering Success: Customer Stories

“One of the things that’s so unique [about this project] is that we’ll be able to take some of these abstract concepts of renewable energy and we’re going to be able to make it tangible, real, walkaround-able, touchable for our children.”
