Solar Systems

How do I add solar to my site? Will it pay for itself? How many panels do I need? What incentives are available?

When you have questions about solar for your new or existing self storage facility, turn to the experts in the business: Trachte. We’ll ask you some simple questions about your electrical usage and what you hope to get out of a solar installation. With that information, we’ll prepare a proposal on the best system for your facility, complete with payback estimates which account for all available grants from government and utility agencies.

Adding solar power is a great way to add an additional income stream to your self storage facility, and that’s an income stream that won’t move out, go bankrupt, or be late on payments. And when it’s time to sell, solar adds value to the business. You know that your utility costs are only going up. Contact Trachte today for a free, no obligation analysis of the financial impact of solar for your site. The government and utility incentives won’t be around forever, so contact us today to find out what’s available for your facility.

How does solar work?

Solar panels or film may be mounted on building rooftops or on the ground. The solar cells generate DC (direct current) power, which is fed into equipment to convert it to AC (alternating current) power. The power is then metered and typically sent back into the electrical grid. Your local utility then issues credit against your utility bill.

Does solar work anywhere or just in areas that get a lot of sun?

Solar isn’t just for the sun belt! A variety of technologies and incentives make solar an attractive investment in locations around the US and Canada. Solar cells can be mounted on both standing seam and R-panel roofs, or on the ground.
