Why Choose A Solar PPA?

With environmental impact becoming an ever increasing concern for many congregations, a solar array can be more than just a cost saving initiative. Solar for churches, temples, mosques and synagogues can be accessible through a solar PPA, providing all the benefits without any of the upfront costs.

Many religious buildings are a perfect candidate for solar, possessing either ample roof space or a large parking lot in which a covered parking array could be installed. One of the biggest hurdles that churches face when considering solar, however, is that as a non-profit organization they are ineligible to monetize tax benefits that commercial or residential entities receive. With a PPA, the savings that private companies such as SCF receive are passed on to the non-profit through vastly cheaper electricity costs over the course of the term length (15-30 years).

SCF has partnered with a wide range of religious institutions to implement solar projects at churches, temples, schools, gymnasiums, campuses, and houses of worship (HOWs). Being well versed in the importance of environmental stewardship & sustainability initiatives for congregations & HOW members, makes SCF an ideal partner for HOW leadership.
