Combining solar power and energy storage technology is becoming an increasingly attractive approach to help commercial and industrial (C&I) energy users reduce energy spend. In fact, many C&I energy users have access to financing options that provide access to this technology without making an upfront investment.
However, with complex market dynamics in a constantly evolving energy world, many C&I energy users are still unclear on the opportunities available to them, or how exactly they can capitalize.
