Meet the SolShare:
An award-winning technology which enables a single rooftop solar system to be shared by all residents in the building.
Hardware Solution
Physical distribution of solar energy to each participating apartment
Behind-the-meter
The SolShare connects to each apartment unit on the customer side of their utility meter
Dynamic Distribution
Automatically tailors solar supply to maximize financial benefits
