We're looking for several kinds of clean
energy partners in New York

Solar Project Houses

If you have vacant land (10+ acres), a commercial rooftop (30,000+ square feet), or a parking lot, you could become our next community solar project host. You’ll earn long-term lease income while adding clean renewable energy to the grid.

Battery Storage Hosts

To earn long-term lease income as a battery project host, all you need is 7,000 – 15,000 square feet of land in a commercial or industrial zone. Battery storage projects are a vital part of the clean energy transition, helping to ensure we have electricity when the sun isn’t shining or the wind isn’t blowing.

Corporate Energy Off-Takers

If your company or organization would like to save on energy costs while reducing its carbon footprint, becoming a community solar off-taker or entering into a power purchase agreement with UGE is the solution.

Community solar projects, also known as solar farms, solar gardens, solar parks, or solar fields, are areas of land, commercial rooftops, or carport canopies containing interconnected solar panels that harvest large amounts of solar energy at once. Solar farms are designed for mid- to large-scale solar energy generation that feeds directly into the grid, as opposed to individual solar panels that usually power a single home or building.
