Our emphasis is on the financial engineering before we even begin the electrical engineering. Eos creatively designs a system and a financial approach that makes clean and free solar power a reality for your business or home.
Eos became a Founding B Corporation to both enjoy the business advantages of the association, and to support the Triple Bottom Line standards that B Corp promotes. We believe that our contribution to the early growth of the B Corp concept is not only the right thing to do, but is also a smart business decision. We also believe that the structure of B Corp membership uniquely affords real leverage for business owners to sustain their triple Bottom Line ideals and practices, even when a business dramatically scales up and into a new capital structure.
We help our commercial and residential clients reduce their energy consumption by installing the solar panel system that is most compatible with their individual needs. As a part of this holistic approach, Eos provides utility billing trend analysis and energy audits for demand side energy management. We are based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and are also actively engaged in projects in California, Florida, North Carolina, and Maryland.
The Change We Seek®
The change Eos seeks is society's conversion from a carbon-based energy economy to a more sustainable model in which solar power plays a pivotal role. Eos will be a substantial advocate in this societal conversion by accelerating the commercial acceptance and application of clean solar power.
