Solar made simple, predictable, and profitable

Aligned with your energy goals

Electricity costs keep climbing. Outages disrupt operations. Solar gives your business control — lower operating costs, predictable rates, and protection from demand charges.

PRIVATE COMMERCIAL

Solar built around your business

Every project starts with your energy data. We model production, cash flow, and payback before any commitment — so you know exactly what to expect. Our in-house team handles everything from permitting and utility interconnection to installation and commissioning.

Financial Clarity Before You Commit.

Your actual energy usage, site conditions, incentives, and financing — modeled clearly. Payback period, cash flow, 25-year ROI. No surprises.

A&R Solar Employees

All In-House. No Subcontractors.

Our installation crews are A&R employees. Accountability stays in one place — from first site visit through final inspection and beyond.

A Service Division That Stays.

A dedicated service team monitors performance and maintains your system for the long run. Not a upsell — it’s how we operate.

PUBLIC & INSTITUTIONAL

Public agencies and utilities choose A&R.

When a school district, housing authority, or public utility puts a project out to bid, they need more than a competitive price. They need a contractor with the experience, compliance track record, and financial stability to see it through — on time, on budget, and audit-ready. A&R has earned that trust across more than 300 public procurements in Washington and Oregon.

RFP & Competitive Procurement

Deep experience with public competitive bid processes — school districts, housing authorities, utilities, and municipal agencies across WA and OR.

Prevailing Wage

Our team is well-versed in prevailing wage requirements. Public projects stay on schedule and in full regulatory compliance.

Financially Stable Partner

Employee-owned. No private equity, no acquisition risk. The company that wins your bid will still be here in year 15.

From feasibility to power-on — your project, handled.

Commercial solar involves a lot of moving parts. We’ve been doing this since 2007, and we’ve built a process that keeps your project on track without putting the coordination burden on you.

Earthbound Industries: A bespoke furniture maker chose solar to power their woodshop — because a business built on craftsmanship should power its operation the same way.
