Solar Site Design was founded in January 2013 by Jason and Samantha Loyet. With well over a decade of solar experience, Solar Site Design was built to gather information about solar projects to be instantly shared with all stakeholders in the project. Our team understands that soft costs of the solar industry are a road block in the development of new solar projects. Soft costs include installation, customer acquisition, permitting, etc., and can cost as much as 60% of a solar project. So, our team built Solar Site Design to help streamline the process of sharing information, all while empowering new solar originators to enter the industry and help reduce expensive soft costs.

Our team has completed both a clean-tech accelerator and a social enterprise accelerator, hosted and produced by Village Capital/Venture Well and The Nashville Entrepreneur Center, respectively. We also participated and were chosen as a winner of the 2015 U.S. Department of Energy SunShot Initiative.

 

 

About the SunShot Initiative
The U.S. Department of Energy SunShot Initiative is a collaborative national effort that aggressively drives innovation to make solar energy fully cost-competitive with traditional energy sources before the end of the decade. Through SunShot, the Energy Department supports efforts by private companies, universities, and national laboratories to drive down the cost of solar electricity to $0.06 per kilowatt-hour.
