StraightUp Solar is ready to help your business implement solar power.

Our combination of expertise (NABCEP certification), experience as an electrical contractor, and multiple commercial solar installations positions us to make solar power integration a straight forward and rewarding experience for you and your business.

"As a representative of Quaker Oats ( A Division of PepsiCo ) we spent a long time researching solar panels but when we finally decided to take the plunge, we weren't sure how to compare solar powered installation companies and costs. Although, as I spent more time with a direct focus on identifying the ideal installation company, I was able to get several companies that install solar in the Mid-Missouri region to provide prices on the job, and hands down, StraightUp Solar (formerly Missouri Solar Living) was the company of choice. The professionalism, knowledge, ethics, prompt follow up, non-pressured sales tactics and service after the sale, is what Quaker Oats has experienced over the course of our solar relationship with StraightUp Solar. Quaker Oats Columbia, Missouri could not be more pleased with the service we received as a result of hiring StraightUp Solar to install our PV project as well as our Solar Hot Water Heater. "

Solar incentives improve your company's initial and long term solar power investment:

1. 30% Federal Tax Credit (receive as a grant until the end of this year!)
2. Rebate (Prop C Rebate = $2/watt for Ameren and KCP&L Missouri customers)
3. Rapid Depreciation (5 year)

Businesses also receive the benefits of leadership recognition in the community. Many customers recognize a business' efforts to improve our local environment through "green" technology such as solar power.

You can show your customers the environmental benefits of your solar energy system with a web-based monitoring system. In addition to showing how much energy you're saving, the monitoring system demonstrates specific environmental benefits of your system such as cars taken off the road or trees planted. See examples on Our Projects page.
