The checklist outlines the key physical and electrical characteristics that influence solar feasibility across rooftops, parking lots, and ground-mounted sites. Criteria include available square footage, roof condition and remaining useful life, structural capacity, and long-term site control. The resource also identifies scenarios where energy storage may enhance project economics.

“For commercial property owners, site readiness and timing are connected,”said Matt Shortsleeve, SVP of Policy & Marketing at Solect Energy.“With the federal Investment Tax Credit sunsetting, projects that can move forward using safe-harbored equipment can preserve significantly more value. That makes early site evaluation a critical step for owners considering solar site leases or long-term energy investments.”

The Property Checklist is intended as a starting point. Solect works with property owners to conduct detailed site reviews, evaluate development pathways, and align solar projects with long-term asset and capital planning strategies.
