The Specialists in Renewable Energy Engineering, Consulting, and Design
Designs That Hold Up From People Who Show Up
Model Energy is a renewable energy engineering and consulting firm specializing in designs for solar, storage, EV infrastructure, and beyond. Every design is reviewed in-house by licensed professional engineers who stay involved from the first draft to the final inspection. From lone projects to regional rollouts, our clients know exactly who to call because we always pick up.
The Model Energy Pledge
Renewable energy is evolving fast and every project needs a partner who brings clarity, scrutiny, and accountability to the table. In our role as consultants, we turn complexity into simplicity. We lead with experience and stay grounded in what matters most—design integrity, team collaboration, and deliverable results.
How We Work
No matter the size or scale of your project, here at Model Energy we always bring our best. When you partner with us, you’re not getting a generalist. All of our licensed professional engineers specialize in renewable energy projects. Expect your consultant from Model Energy to:
Integrate with your team
We don’t subcontract and disappear. We consult, collaborate, and contribute.
Engineer with integrity
No rubber stamps. No cutting corners. Every design is thoroughly reviewed for quality, safety, and efficiency by our licensed professionals.
Communicate clearly
We anticipate problems, avoid surprises, and keep your project moving.
Specialize in energy systems
This is not a division of our firm. It’s our core focus.
Our Services
We specialize in renewable energy consulting and engineering with a focus on long-term performance, code compliance, and design integrity. Whether you need full permit sets or feasibility support, our work is grounded in experience and shaped by your goals.
Commercial Solar Design & Engineering
From municipalities and major facilities to utility-scale rollouts, we provide:
- Full permit sets with stamped drawings
- Structural letters
- Interconnection support
- Feasibility studies
- Ground-mount, rooftop, and floating array design
Most of our commercial clients engage us through trusted installer relationships, where we act as an extension of their internal team. Our structural and electrical engineering services are designed to reduce friction during permitting and inspection, and our designs are never outsourced, so that projects move from design to execution with fewer delays.
Residential Solar Design & Engineering
For contractors and developers who value quality over volume, we provide:
- Accurate, code-ready solar designs for roof type or ground-mount systems
- Direct access to your consultant with no generic portals or client shuffling
- AHJ and permitting expertise across dozens of nationwide jurisdictions
- Full integration with your internal team for lifetime continuity of service
Our residential designs are built with the same diligence and attention to detail as our largest commercial projects. We only stamp our own designs so that we deliver nothing but the best.
Post-Install Inspections
Required or not by any given jurisdiction, post-install inspections are still a best practice which help ensure the built project matches the design. We offer:
- Remote and on-site inspection options
- Structural verification letters
- Timely turnaround and clear documentation
We offer both structural and electrical post-install verification as required by AHJs or requested for internal quality assurance. Since requirements may vary by jurisdictions, this service is offered independently or as a part of an extended project lifecycle.
EV Charging Solutions
We support both new builds and add-ons, with engineering that includes:
- Complete permit sets and site layouts
- Trenching, conduit routing, and system integration
- Commercial, municipal, and multi-family properties
Whether part of a larger PV project or a stand-alone need, we guide you from design through approval. No matter the size or scope, we’ll help see it through to completion.
Wind & Other Renewable Energy Consulting
We provide renewable energy consulting and design services beyond solar, including wind and geothermal systems. We work with energy companies and developers seeking:
- Early-stage feasibility studies and site assessments
- System design and performance modeling
- Integration with broader renewable infrastructure
- Engineering consultation for commercial-scale and distributed energy projects
We can support early planning or integrate into a full project scope. Either way our team delivers clear, reliable guidance for the full range of renewable technologies.
Sustainability & Carbon Footprint Consulting
Sustainability is a natural part of our engineering process. We help clients improve efficiency, meet regulatory benchmarks, and support long-term performance goals through practical, code-aligned consulting. Our licensed professional engineers support clients with:
- Mechanical (MEP) reviews for improved energy efficiency
- HERS ratings and Department of Energy documentation
- HVAC and building systems optimization
We support developers and municipalities with the engineering documentation required for green building incentives, energy performance benchmarks, and certification applications. Whether you’re a municipality looking to improve the environmental performance of your building systems or a builder in need of certification for proposals, we help make sure your project meets the mark.
Support for Financing, Grant, and Incentive Procurement
Securing financing, grants, and incentives for renewable energy projects requires more than a good idea—it requires technical proof. Model Energy provides the licensed engineering expertise that allows you to transform funding applications from hopeful proposals into compelling, credible submissions that decision-makers trust. While we don’t write grants or broker financing, we can support you with:
- Technical documentation that meets the strict requirements that funding agencies demand for approval
- Credibility that demonstrates technical feasibility and reduces risk
- Seamless integration with your grant writers, financial officers, and project managers
Every funding opportunity has a deadline and competition. Let us handle the engineering foundation while you focus on strategy and outreach.
What Makes Us Different
No handoffs
You’ll know the name of your project manager. You’ll be able to reach them directly. If things change—and they always do—you won’t be stuck in a support queue.
Integrated collaboration
We don’t just fill in blanks. We consult, course-correct, and problem-solve alongside your team. Our clients stay with us because we show up when it matters.
Nothing overlooked
Every document is stamped by a professional who actually worked on the design. We don’t sign off on other people’s work. It’s not just about legality—it’s about accountability.
Licenses in 20+ states
National reach with local fluency. We stay current with AHJ requirements and jurisdictional nuances so your project doesn’t get stuck.
Expertise you can trust
This isn’t a new service line. This is what we do. With nearly 20 years of direct experience in renewable energy, we don’t dabble—we deliver.
The Bottom Line
If you’re looking for a firm that fills in a template, sends a bill, and moves on, that’s not us. If you need a partner who gets involved, sticks with you for the long haul, and solves problems as part of your team, then you’ve met your ideal renewable energy design specialists.
We’re Model Energy.
Let’s build something that works.
