Commercial Solar FAQ

EPC stands for engineering, procurement, and construction. As an EPC, Ferrius Energy handles all three phases in-house under one contract, from PV design and equipment sourcing to construction and commissioning, so you have a single point of accountability instead of a chain of subcontractors.

Ferrius Energy is headquartered in Saugus, Massachusetts and serves eight U.S. states: Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Maine, Vermont, Florida, and Texas.

We work with hotels, condominiums and HOAs, industrial facilities, supermarkets, retail, and office properties, as well as landowners and investors developing utility-scale solar farms.

Most projects, from contract signing to PTO (Permission to Operate), take between 3 and 9 months depending on system size, utility timelines, and permitting requirements.
