1. Let the sun earn you money.

Turn your roof into a money maker! Most companies underutilize their roof space and turn your roof into an annuity investment.

2. Shield yourself against rising energy prices.

Hydro rates in Ontario have increased by over 160% since 2008. and are expected to keep rising for the next 20 years.

3. Generate savings from the sun.

Ontario’s solar Net Metering program allows you to produce the electrical power you consume and reduce your electricity usage by up to 100%.

4. No Maintenance.

With no moving parts, solar panels require little-to-no maintenance and have a lifespan of 30+ years.

5. Extend the lifetime of your regular roof.

Solar panels block UV and extend the life of the roofing materials beneath them, plus their shade lowers the cost of cooling buildings in the summer: two hidden benefits of investing in solar energy.

6. Increase your marketing appeal.

Commercial enterprises using solar enjoy the marketing benefit of clearly contributing to an environmentally sustainable future, including applying their solar panel system toward green building certifications.

7. Reduce your carbon footprint.

Your solar panel system is a big step you can make toward a cleaner future. Electricity produced by burning coal, oil, and natural gas contributes significantly to the greenhouse gases fueling extreme global climate changes that are projected to get much worse over the next century. Solar energy supply is unlimited, and the best protection we can pass along to future generations.

As solar system owners, we understand the importance that effective financing can play in the success of a project. Through our efforts in developing 6 of our own solar projects, we have a good knowledge of the financing community and the capabilities of various financing institutions.

With options up to 100% financing, you can eliminate upfront capital costs, limit your risk, and allow your company to be cashflow positive from day 1.

We make it easy! Engineer-Procure-Construct. Global Point Energy provides the full Turn-Key solution!

1. Feasibility

Global Point Energy will prepare a pre-feasibility study that will determine your maximum solar roof capacity, estimated system cost, annual solar output, and energy savings.

2. Load Profiling

If the pre-feasibility study shows merit, Global Point technical staff will visit your facility to gather historical power information, discuss future energy needs, confirm roof sizing and integrity, and review your service distribution in general.

3. Energy Audit

With the information gathered during the site visit, we will perform an energy audit of your electrical demand to establish an appropriate solar system sizing. This is compared to the potential roof capacity for a determination of final sizing.

4. Financial Analysis

Using the final sizing, GPE will work with you to develop a detailed 25-year financial model that considers all factors such as capital cost, CCA and income tax regimes, OM+A costs, solar production, offset energy price, inflation, and possible financing scenarios. The model will display all annual cash flows and provide a project IRR using the NPV methodology.

5. Proposal

GPE will provide a proposal to engineer, procure and construct (EPC) one of our state-of-the-art solar systems. We will also include an estimate of local utility hookup costs and any ancillary costs that are required to support the project.

1. Construction

GPE will undertake to secure all required permits and approvals from the relevant authorities. This will include a confirmation of grid capacity and connection cost. Professional engineering analysis of roof structural integrity and electrical design is performed.

2. Connection

Once all permits and approvals have been obtained, we will initiate construction at your site. We dedicate a project manager, who works with you closely to ensure that our activities don’t affect your operations.

3. Generation

Final commissioning occurs with the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) inspection, local utility inspection, and any required third-party reviews.

At Global Point Energy, we do not consider the job to be complete until your project is fully operational and commercial operation is declared!

Our turnkey solar panel system includes navigation of all Government regulations, permitting, approvals, and fees. This includes ensuring that all components meet the Ontario Content Requirements (giving you full manufacturer warranties), arranging all Grid Connection costs, Hydro, LDC, ESA approvals, and application fees.
