Cold-Climate Winterization & Snow-Load Protection

New England freeze-thaw cycles are hard on rooftop hardware. We specify cold-rated conduit runs, sealed flashing, and proper snow-load racking, and winterize attic-mounted inverters and battery equipment so your system performs reliably through Massachusetts winters.

EV Charging & Battery Storage Integration

Pair your array with Level 2 home EV charging and battery backup, sized to your actual usage. We upgrade service panels where needed and configure storage to cover outages and shift your solar credit into evening hours.

Permitting, Code Compliance & System Monitoring

We manage municipal permits, state stretch-code electrical requirements, and utility paperwork across Somerville, Cambridge, Medford, Arlington, Malden, and Boston β€” then set up app-based monitoring so you can watch your daily production and net-metering credits in real time.

β€œUnbelievable. Marc is THE person to talk to about solar. He did not sell me. He mentored me so I could make the best decision. And then my Solar ended up producing better than he had predicted. I have a credit on my electric bill already (and I charge my electric car too!). The installation was flawless and on time. I highly recommend Brightway. Ask for Marc!”
