What is the end to end process of working with Lumen?

Deploying clean energy across a real estate portfolio can feel complex—but it doesn’t have to be. At Lumen, we streamline the path to solar and battery deployment with a data-driven, turnkey process that puts your goals first.
Here’s how it works:
1. Prioritize
We start by evaluating your entire portfolio in seconds. Using energy load data from public and proprietary databases, Lumen’s platform identifies the sites with the highest potential for net operating income (NOI) from solar and battery storage. No guesswork—just a clear roadmap to your best opportunities.
2. Qualify
Next, we validate feasibility. This includes site-level assessments of roof condition, utility rate structures, incentive availability, and more—all matched to your internal investment criteria and ESG goals.
3. Transact
When your team is ready to move forward, Lumen runs a transparent, competitive bid process with top-tier developers and EPCs. We normalize bids across term lengths, pricing, and contract types (e.g., cash purchase, PPA, or lease) so you can make the most informed decision.
4. Deploy
Once a provider is selected, you move forward directly with them. Lumen stays involved throughout implementation, ensuring alignment from contract to commissioning.
From data to deployment, we make clean energy actionable.
