Residential solar is great. Individual energy consumers choosing ownership, resilience, and self-sufficiency, all while contributing to the sustainability of life on this planet – great.
But large organizations – businesses, non-profits, governments – have much more impact.
The average home in the US uses just under 900 kwh per month.
The average commercial property in the US uses over 6,000 kwh per month.
That's nearly 7 times as much energy usage.
Which means that when we convert large organizations from traditional resources to renewable energy...
We are creating nearly 7 times the positive impact on the planet.
[Not to mention the influence larger organizations have on politics, economics, & the collective mindset. When businesses and institutions flip the solar switch, they're not just turning their own solar energy system on, they're turning everyone else on to the possibility and potential of choosing renewable energy.]
That's why Surge was born.
So, join Surge to generate more revenue.
Join Surge to install more MW.
Join Surge to save our planet, one panel at a time.

Surge is a platform that connects solar sales pros and their C&I leads to vetted EPCs. We built this platform because most residential sales reps are not able to sell commercial – whether it's because they're not trained in the nuances of the commercial sector or their EPC or sales network only does residential – and because most large-scale EPCs & installers struggle to generate consistent high-quality leads in a cost-effective way.
As a rep with Surge, for a minimal monthly subscription, you can submit your commercial leads to trusted installers, get vetted proposals and financing options, track project progress in your pipeline, learn how to sell commercial from the pros, and earn much higher commissions than what's possible with just resi. (What are you waiting for?!)
As an EPC with Surge, for a minimal monthly subscription, you can access an endless supply of pre-qualified C&I scale leads, pick and choose your "sweet spot" projects, set your own margins, and close more revenue than ever before without the hassle of hiring a huge sales team, buying leads, or running online ads. (What are you waiting for?!)
Absolutely! We encourage all Surge users to invite their existing team members or partners. If you're a rep, bring your EPCs; if you're an EPC, bring your fellow installers and reps! Here's why. If you invite new users to the Surge platform, you are then linked us as their sponsor. As sponsor, you'll earn fully passive revenue share on every deal they bring in (as a Solo user) or install (as an Enterprise user), even if you never touch the deal yourself.

Not one. It's just $84/month or $840/year if you're a sales rep. It's currently $497 one-time if you're an EPC or contractor.
And hey, to all you EPCs out there... we don't charge you per lead. It's $497 to lock in your membership and get unlimited opportunities in the pipeline (along with a ton of other benefits). Whatever leads our sales network loads in are first-come first-served (and yes, you get notified immediately of each new lead)! You don't pay out commission until the permits are submitted (20% milestone) and the install is completed (80% milestone).
Reps earn 70% commission on Surge's gross margin. You will be aware of your total commission on a deal during its proposal phase, and you'll be able to approve or decline proposals based on the finances presented. Once a deal is closed, prior to contract signatures, Surge does a final quality audit on the deal to confirm all numbers are correct with all parties involved.
Our full current revenue plan is linked here.
As for how you get paid in a more practical sense, when you join Surge, you'll be added to our payroll system and asked to add your direct deposit info. You'll then be paid commission at two key milestones on every deal – permits submitted & installation completed.
EPCs keep 70% commission on their gross margin, and are invoiced by Surge for the remaining 30%, which then becomes Surge's own gross margin from which we pay our reps (lead originators), stakeholders, and sponsors. You will be required to share the gross margin on each deal during its proposal phase, and you'll be able to modify that by 5% either way as the deal is negotiated and finalized. Once a deal is closed, prior to contract signatures, Surge does a final quality audit on the deal to confirm all numbers are correct with all parties involved.

As for how you will pay commissions in a more practical sense, when you join Surge, you'll be added to our ACH debit system and asked to add your direct debit info. You'll then be debited for the 30% commission at two key milestones on every deal – permits submitted (20% of total) & installation completed (80% of total).
Nothing. 🤷♂️ We're here to make life simpler. Leads go into pipeline, deals get sold, commissions get paid. It's that easy.
