COMMERCIAL & INDUSTRIAL (C&I)

We offer comprehensive energy solutions for REITS and other owners of and landlords for commercial and industrial properties.

Morpho Energy collaborates with owners of commercial and industrial (C&I) real estate to harness the advantages of a transition to clean energy.

The C&I real estate sector is poised to participate in the clean energy shift. With deep experience in CRE, Morpho brings together its technologies, knowledge, assets, and operational approach to expedite this transition, delivering the sought-after solution of scaling renewable energy profitably and swiftly across the C&I landscape throughout the United States.

Morpho’s solar energy installations on rooftops, parking lots, and facilities of commercial and industrial (C&I) buildings can offer numerous benefits for C&I real estate property owners and landlords as well as their tenants, chiefly including cheaper power hedge against historically increasing rates locked in with power purchase agreements (PPAs), plus opportunities for additional revenue through lease payments (effectively solar as a tenant):

• Cost Savings: Solar panels can significantly reduce electricity bills, helping property owners and landlords save money on energy costs. This can lead to long-term financial benefits and improved profitability.

• Additional Revenue Streams: Property owners can generate additional income by leasing (for increased net operating income, NOI) rooftop or parking lot space to Morpho as an energy provider and through power purchase agreements (PPAs) securing savings over the long-term.

• Increased Property Value: Installing solar panels can enhance the overall value of the property, making it more attractive to tenants and potential buyers who value sustainability and lower operating costs.

• Tenant Attraction and Retention: C&I tenants are increasingly looking for ecofriendly spaces. Offering solar-powered facilities can attract environmentally conscious tenants and encourage existing tenants to stay longer.

• Environmental Benefits: Solar energy systems reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help combat climate change, contributing to a more sustainable and responsible corporate image.

• Energy Independence: Property owners can become less reliant on the grid, reducing vulnerability to energy price fluctuations and potential power outages. This can enhance business continuity.

• Net Metering: In many locations, excess electricity generated by solar panels can be fed back into the grid, earning property owners credits or reducing their electricity bills further through net metering programs.

• Marketing Advantages: Solar-powered commercial and industrial properties can be marketed as environmentally friendly and socially responsible, appealing to customers and investors who prioritize sustainability.

• Long-Term Economics: Solar panels have a long lifespan (typically 25 years or more), providing a reliable source of renewable energy and, with power purchase agreements (PPAs), locked in energy costs over an extended period.

• Diversification of Income: Adding solar energy systems diversifies a property owner's income sources, reducing reliance on traditional rent and lease income (Morpho in many cases will lease that portion of the property where the solar is installed), offering additional Net Operating Income (NOI).

• Regulatory Compliance: In some areas, there may be regulatory requirements or incentives for property owners to adopt renewable energy solutions, making solar installations a compliance strategy.

It's important for Morpho and our the property owners with whom we partner to conduct a feasibility study, consider local regulations and incentives, and assess the potential return on investment before deciding to install solar energy systems. Additionally, working with Morpho and our experienced solar installers and energy consultants can help maximize the benefits of these systems for commercial and industrial properties.

In Summary
Morpho Energy empowers C&I real estate owners to capitalize on the global clean energy shift, all without having to delve into the energy sector. Today, renewable energy systems, increasingly including electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, not only boost property value through increased revenue but also provide coveted amenities for tenants, aligning with corporate ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) objectives.

As a comprehensive partner in the clean energy transition, Morpho offers financing, installation, ownership, and operation of integrated solar, storage, and EV charging systems at zero upfront cost for our CRE partners. We shoulder all financial and operational responsibilities associated with developing, owning, and managing renewable energy assets, streamlining the process to ensure substantial financial and sustainability gains are effortlessly realized.
