✨ The first #Pride was an uprising! ✨

🌈 Uprise is out, proud, and solar-powered at the #WorldPride Parade today! While some companies step back, we’re stepping up. Because showing up for LGBTQ+ rights isn’t seasonal — it’s essential.

Check out this recently installed solar array in #ChevyChaseDC 🛠️ With #solarpanels on multiple sides of the roof, this wasn't a simple job, but that didn't daunt our experienced team! Thanks to DC's #solarincentives, the customer's estimated payback time is less than 3 years. Another solar win! 🌞

How does #netmetering work? We're glad you asked. Check out our graphic to see how electricity flows between your #solarpanels and the grid. Any excess power your panels generate is sent to the grid, and you receive credit from your utility company.
