Helping American manufacturers create predictable energy costs
Create secure and predictable energy costs for decades to come with solar energy.
We help advanced manufacturing and industrial operations use solar energy to benefit from peak shaving, reduction in demand charges, and lower overall operating costs.
Types of operations we service:

DISTRIBUTION & WAREHOUSING | MACHINERY PRODUCTION
Peak shaving & demand reduction with solar and battery energy storage
See dramatic reductions in your energy costs with combination solar and battery energy storage systems. Generate clean energy when the sun is shining, use stored energy during peak times to reduce or eliminate peak energy prices.
We engineer and install solar-plus-storage systems that use a combination of powerful advanced energy technologies to reduce or eliminate costly demand charges.

The Energy of Leaders
Don’t take our word for it, hear from the business owners who are leading profitably with Ideal Energy solar solutions.
Here are a few of their stories.
DRIVING A $9000 MONTHLY ENERGY BILL TO ZERO
A Case Study
“Our energy costs were averaging about $9,000 per month. Our first bill after getting off the demand charge using solar was $13.48, which is acutally only a meter fee.
From the savings we’ve been able to add new benefits to our employees, purchase new equipment, and add to our service offerings. All of these things potentially could not have happened because the cash flow was not there before.”
JENNY STEFFENSMEIER, OWNER, STEFFENSMEIER WELDING &
MANUFACTURING
CONVERTING UNUSED LAND INTO PRODUCTIVE REVENUE
A Case Study
“We were looking at a projected at a five to six year payback on a very low-risk investment, with savings up to $113,000 per year.
I got to make my site look better, and from a green perspective, with renewable energy, how can you go wrong?”
