WHAT WE BUILD

Better-Built Homes

Our in-house team designs and builds custom homes throughout Rhode Island, managing every phase of construction with precision and care. By overseeing every detail, we aim to give homeowners clarity, consistency, and craftsmanship at every stage of the build.

01

Healthy & Comfortable Living

Our homes are super-insulated and more comfortable than traditional homes. Fresh air is continuously circulated to provide a healthier indoor environment. Geothermal and air source heat pumps provide consistent space conditioning.

02

Superior Construction

From the foundation to the solar panels, each detail is carefully planned and executed. We use cutting edge components and technology to build our homes, ensuring high performance and longevity. 

03

Solar Powered

Zero energy homes utilize renewable energy and a super insulated building envelope to produce and retain energy. Our homes are designed to produce enough annual energy to eliminate your utility costs over the course of the year. 

WHAT WE BUILD

High-Performance Solar Systems

We design and install solar systems all over Providence, managing every phase of development in-house to deliver predictable performance, long-term savings, and lasting value to our clients.

Roof Mount

Roof mounts are perfect for businesses and commercial spaces looking to use their existing roof structure as the foundation for your solar array. By installing rooftop solar on your commercial building, you'll end up taking less space on your property while simultaneously reducing the overall cost of your building's utility bill. 

02

Ground Mount

Ground mounts are perfect for commercial or utility solar. The system is not confined to the dimensions of a roof nor would need to be removed if a roof needs replacing. The accessibility of a ground mount make them easier to maintain and clean. Due to system design and foundations, the arrays can withstand more difficult weather aversions, and cooler panel temperatures also mean higher energy output.

BENEFITS

Why Go Solar

Switching to solar is more than upgrading your energy—it’s a smart, strategic investment. Solar systems not only lower operating costs and stabilize energy expenses, but they also provide predictable returns and long-term financial benefits for businesses of all sizes.

By adopting renewable energy, Rhode Island companies can protect their budgets from rising utility rates, take advantage of state and federal incentives, and position themselves as forward-thinking leaders in sustainability.

01

Investment

A solar project delivers rapid payback, attractive ROI, and predictable cash flow. Producing electricity on-site lowers overhead, protects against utility price volatility, and transforms energy costs into a predictable, long-term asset. Investing in solar is a hedge against rising electricity prices, which increase by 3–5% annually, helping businesses maintain stable finances and focus on growth.

02

Incentives

Upfront costs can be significantly reduced through state grant programs and federal tax credit and depreciation. Rhode Island has one of the best feed-in-tariff or "FiT" incentive programs in the nation called the Renewable Energy Growth Program where the owner sells all generated electricity to National Grid at a fixed dollar per kilowatt-hour rate for a 20-year term. A FiT solar project with NPTRE turns your roof or land into a predictable source of revenue and tax benefits. 

03

Responsibility

Become an environmentally sustainable business. Generating power at your facility, not only reduces your operating costs but reduces the nation's need for foreign energy. Money saved on electricity can be used more effectively to foster growth and create jobs. Be a leader in your industry by setting an example as an eco-conscious and forward-thinking company.
