About Us

About Distributed Sun in 2012

Distributed Sun LLC (D-Sun) is an industry-leading commercial solar developer.  Through its Solar Energy Investment Companies (SEICs), D-Sun develops, finances, constructs, owns and operates commercial scale solar energy systems throughout the United States.  D-Sun and its SEICs provide all the development capital required to take a project from selection to completion using sponsor equity, tax equity, and syndicated construction and term debt finance.

D-Sun uses a suite of sophisticated and proprietary tools for project selection, financial analysis, risk underwriting, and facilities management.  Together, Acquiris™, Sunrise Database, Azimuth Panel, Radiance Dial, SOL Index, SEIC Dashboard, Luminous and TruSolar™ enable D-Sun to approach solar project development in a way that is systematic and consistently profitable.

We have power commissioned in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and recently announced our award to develop the renewable energy systems for Cornell University’s $2B technology campus on Roosevelt Island.  Through this partnership with Cornell University, D-Sun will develop clean energy generation systems that include geothermal systems, fuel cells, and New York City’s largest commercial solar array.

In Q1 2012, D-Sun formally launched the Distributed Solar Network™ (DSN) to create partnerships with EPCs and other downstream developers throughout the solar industry.  DSN offers members the benefits of D-Sun’s project selection tools, underwriting expertise, and financial analysis in exchange for access to project pipelines in need of finance and development.

In 2012, the Company emphasizes four growth paths: 1) deploying DSN nationwide; 2) ramping-up sunFOUR and sunFIVE, our dedicated, programmatic tax equity facilities; 3) expanding key real-estate portfolio partnerships in the Southwest and other new regions, and; 4) replicating our recent successes in major project development.

Project Types

Commercial rooftops are prime real-estate for solar photovoltaics. Distributed Sun converts this unused space into energy savings.

Solar carports provide shaded parking using an array of solar panels, keeping cars cool in the summer while harvesting energy from the sun.

Vacant land can be turned into large solar farms using ground mounted solar arrays that generate revenue.
