One Company From The Feasibility Study To Year Twenty-Five

Halvenor was founded by two electrical engineers who had watched too many commercial projects handed from a sales firm to a designer to a subcontracted crew — and then to nobody once the ribbon was cut. We keep every stage in house: our engineers model the savings and design the system, our own licensed crews build it, and our operations team monitors it for as long as you own it.

  • ✓In-house electrical and structural engineering
  • ✓Licensed general and electrical contractor in California
  • ✓NABCEP-certified project leads and OSHA-trained crews
  • ✓PG&E interconnection handled from application to permission to operate
Why Businesses Here Go Solar

The Numbers A Finance Team Cares About

Lower Demand Charges

Solar paired with storage trims the afternoon peaks that often make up the biggest line on a commercial bill.

A Predictable Energy Cost

Power you generate isn't exposed to future rate increases, which makes budgeting a decade out a lot easier.

Valley Sun, Valley Loads

Cooling, refrigeration and irrigation peak on the same summer afternoons the Central Valley produces the most solar.

A Case You Can Audit

Every proposal shows the model: your interval data, the production estimate, the rate schedule and every assumption behind the payback.

How A Project Runs

From Utility Bills To Permission To Operate

1

Feasibility Review

Twelve months of interval data, your rate schedule, a roof or site walk and a structural check. Free, and you keep the findings either way.

2

Proposal & Savings Model

System size, layout, a firm price and the full financial model — cash, loan and third-party-owned options side by side.

3

Engineering & Permits

Stamped structural and electrical drawings, city or county permits, and the PG&E interconnection application.

4

Build

Our own crews, scheduled around your operating hours, with a site lead on every job and a daily update to your facilities team.

5

Commissioning & Monitoring

Inspection, utility permission to operate, then live monitoring and a quarterly production report for the life of the system.

What Every Proposal Includes

Nothing Your Board Will Have To Ask For Twice

01

Your Load Profile

Fifteen-minute interval data charted against expected production, so you can see what the system covers and what it doesn't.

02

Three Ways To Pay

Cash, financing and third-party ownership modeled on the same assumptions, so the comparison is fair.

03

Incentives, Stated Carefully

Which federal, state and utility programs may apply, their deadlines, and the savings case both with and without them — for your tax advisor to confirm.

04

Roof & Structure Findings

What the engineer found, including any roof work that should happen before panels go up rather than after.

From Our Clients

What Operators And Owners Tell Us

★★★★★
Our cold-storage building runs compressors around the clock and our demand charges were brutal. Halvenor paired the rooftop with a battery for peak shaving, and the savings case they gave us held up in the first year's bills.
Rob TavaresOperations Director, Central Valley cold storage
★★★★★
They built the carports over our staff lot in phases so we never lost more than a row of parking at a time. Their site lead was there every morning at six.
Michelle HuangFacilities Manager, distribution center
★★★★★
We're a family winery, not an energy company. They handled PG&E, the county permit and the engineering, and they still send us a production report every quarter.

Questions From Owners And Facilities Teams

Are there still tax incentives for commercial solar?

Some federal incentives still apply to commercial projects under current law, but the deadlines are tighter than they were and depend on when construction starts and when the system is placed in service. We model your project with and without them and flag the dates that matter; your tax advisor confirms what you can claim.

Will you put panels on a roof that needs replacing soon?

We'd rather not, and we'll tell you if we find that. Our structural review looks at the roof's remaining life; if it's close, we'll recommend reroofing first or a carport or ground-mount instead.

How does billing work with PG&E after solar?

Commercial customers are on net billing, which credits exported power at a lower rate than you pay for imported power. That's why we size systems to cover what you use on site and often pair them with storage, rather than oversizing to export.

Can we own the system without paying cash up front?

Yes. We model financing and third-party-owned options — a lease or power purchase agreement — alongside a cash purchase so you can compare them on the same assumptions.

Will installation disrupt our operations?

We schedule around your shifts, stage work in sections, and keep the site lead in daily contact with your facilities team. Most tie-ins are done in a planned shutdown of a few hours, often on a weekend.

Do you maintain systems another company installed?

Yes. Our operations team takes on existing commercial systems — monitoring, inverter service, cleaning and annual inspections — after a baseline audit.
