A Different Way to Think About Power
McCormack gives property owners the tools they need to better manage their energy consumption, and potentially monetize their interconnection to the grid by becoming an energy hub within their local community.
Energy Procurement
We help commercial property owners qualify for and shop for more competitive energy rates through California’s Direct Access program.
What is Direct Access? Direct Access (DA) is an electricity service option that enables qualified commercial customers to purchase power from a non-utility entities called an Energy Service Providers (ESPs) within their service. Under the DA program, the customer’s utility is still responsible for the transmission and distribution.
Self Generation Project Development
We help commercial property owners develop on-site power generation systems.
These systems offer a way to (a) reduce existing energy expenses, and/or (b) create new revenue streams from the sale of self-generated power to tenants and the community at large.
Technology We Deploy: Rooftop solar with single axis tracking, carport-integrated solar, ground mount solar, and battery energy storage systems (BESS).
EV Charging Station Development
We help commercial property owners develop new revenue streams and new ways of attracting patrons to their property through EV Charging Station Development.
What Makes McCormack’s EV Charger Solutions Different?
- Universal charging at Tesla Super Charger speeds
- Ability for property owners to earn a higher percentage of net income than what is customarily available via developer partnerships
- Ability to promote on-site offerings through large display screens
Energy Capacity Hosting
We help commercial property owners develop new revenue streams by contracting to host utility scale battery storage units at their site.
How This Model Works: We pair property owners with large-scale battery developers who are seeking sites with established utility interconnections.
The developers that we work aim to build 20MWH + battery projects, which are design can help utilities meet their “electricity capacity” requirements.
Agricultural Solar Energy Systems
Farms have the most to gain from going solar. Savings on energy costs can translate into a significant increase in net income.
McCormack offers a turn-key program for farms looking to produce their own clean energy. Our service package for farms includes: (1) grant application completion, (2) origination of system financing, (3) assistance with tax credit resale [if necessary], (4) system design and engineering, (5) material procurement, (6) construction, (7) system commissioning, and (8) completion of the “permission to operate” process with the utility.
The long-term benefit of clean energy systems for farms can be huge. These systems can help farms hedge against inflation, be more competitive in the marketplace, and present themselves as more sustainable.
Hybrid Solar + Fuel Cell Systems
With certain applications (like hotels, office buildings, and certain medical buildings) there just isn’t enough available square footage for solar to produce the amount of energy that’s necessary.
In these applications, a hybrid solar + fuel cell system can be optimal. The fuel cell can be used to cover the base load of the facility that runs 24/7, and the solar can be used to cover any additional power needs that occur during daylight hours. Solar can also be paired with energy storage to help cover peak power in the evening, when the fuel cell is still running.
Most fuel cells currently run off of natural gas, but they are considered a form of clean energy (and are subsidized as such) due to their extremely low emissions as compared to traditional generators.
In the future, fuel cell demand may increase further in California, as our state is trying to incentivize the use of hydrogen (which can be used as an alternative fuel source to natural gas).
