Congratulations! You found Cape Cod’s BEST solar company to work with for your residential or small
commercial solar installation.
Electricity rates have been rising at an increasing rate lately. Perhaps you are here because you know
there is a better way to energize your home. With. Renewable. Solar. Energy! The return on investment
has never been better. We can help.
Massachusetts consistently places as one of the best in the nation for going solar. This is because of the
cost of electricity as other state incentives. Within MA the electric company here on Cape Cod –
Eversource is one of the best electric companies for going solar. “If there’s ANY way to go solar here you
really should go solar here!”.
To many people, the positive environmental effects of going solar are also something they feel good
about, especially on our beloved Cape Cod where we enjoy so much nature, the sea, and the outdoors.
For 14 years Falmouth Solar has been servicing the Cape Cod area. Our focus is on providing the best
experience for our customers one at a time. We do not offer or generally recommend power purchase
agreements. Much of our work comes from referrals and as a small lean company with low overhead our
pricing is generally 3% to 5% below our competitors.
To most of our customers going solar is new to them. We understand that it may seem overwhelming,
complicated, and technical. Let us reassure you that we have the experience and knowledge to plan and
execute a solution you will love. We’ll handle the design, permitting, installation, and submit the project
for all incentives possible.
We’re not a high-volume company with high-pressure sales. We will make your decision for solar easy,
openly share all the information you need, and handle all the details. We welcome you to call, e-mail us
today to discuss an amazing solar solution you will love!

heating and cooling through air source heat pumps. Current offerings include Panasonic,
Mitsubishi, and Fujitsu, as well as ducted forced hot air conversions. All ultimately powered by energy
from your solar array!
Falmouth Solar is a pioneer in this area. The idea is to use a variety of
flexible energy sources to become independent of the grid on small residential scales. Highly customized
for each unique application.
optional preparatory services include reroofing, tree trimming or removal, and preliminary
design or professional structural engineering (PE) to ensure solar structural compatibility with existing
structure. We generally don’t work with solar thermal hot water or wind turbine technology as much as we
did 10 or 12 years ago.
There are three general groups of products which are generally recommended based on each individual customer’s needs. As we refine your goals and product selections the components usually fall within one of these three groups:
In the portfolio section you’ll find photos as well as in-depth case studies. Find a showcase of our previous solar work with before and after photos. See examples of our installations while under construction and note our attention to detail in every stage. The focus is the performance of the system, excellence in workmanship, and visual aesthetic. Check out some project case studies highlighting a variety of unique solar installations. In these case studies you will discover the hurdles and challenges encountered and how the experienced team at Falmouth Solar is able to overcome these obstacles. Just as there are no perfect people, there is no such thing as a perfect solar installation site. We have developed best practices to fine tune solutions to almost every situation. You can trust our highly refined and efficient processes for high-quality work at or below typical local installation costs.
Here you will find our company background, the “going solar” process, our referral program, and a little about some key team members. The About Us page will introduce you to the company’s history highlighting some stark differences between us and the competition. Here too you will discover the process for going solar from start to finish. The first step is gathering your contact information. We will then have a preliminary phone consultation setting up a visit to the site for a comprehensive solar site survey (SSS). On our second visit, you will receive the proposal presentation including all relevant project details and a spreadsheet estimating the financial benefits. Be introduced to some of the essential folks, their backgrounds, and the valuable contributions each will bring to your project. And if you love our work, please refer us and receive generous cash rewards using our referral program open to our customers or virtually anyone!
We are not as interested in sales volume as we are in doing the best job possible. We feel our customers deserve and expect this. Most of our work comes from referrals from our previous happy customers. Since we do not purchase expensive Internet leads that are often unfruitful, our cost of doing businessand overhead is low.
We help you own the system so that you qualify for the greatest net financial benefits.
We generally do not recommend using a power purchase agreement (PPA) for your residential or small-scale commercial solar projects. These arrangements are often somewhat predatory and are designed to benefit the third-party owner more than the solar customer. And contrary to their advertising there is no such thing as free solar. Your greatest net financial benefit will be owning the system yourself and keeping all incentives and benefits yourself. We don’t employ fancy-pants high-pressure salespeople who will try twisting your arm. We don’t need any such ninja moves since our solar projects essentially sell themselves.
The economics of going solar have never been more favorable than now. Just a few years ago the typical return on investment (ROI) was seven to nine years, recently it has been reduced to four to six years.
So, congratulations! You have found a local, well-established, well respected, experienced team at Falmouth Solar who will work hard to provide you a stress-free experience.
