Your Options for Solar Leasing
Leasing your property for solar energy projects offers a unique opportunity to transform unused land or rooftops into a steady income stream while contributing to an energy resilient future for your local community.
PureSky Energy installs and operates the solar power system on your property. In exchange, you receive regular lease payments over the term of the agreement, which can last 20 years or more.
Farm or Land Leasing for Shared Solar
Lease out a portion of your land for a large-scale solar project, typically 30 to 40 acres. If you have less land, you may be eligible for energy storage hosting.
Large-scale Roof for Solar Installation
Lease out your commercial rooftop for a rooftop solar project for behind or in front of the meter energy.
Lease Your Parking Lot for Solar Canopy
Provide a better experience for customers by leasing your parking lot for a solar canopy.
our partnerships with landowners
Who We Work With
We form long-lasting partnerships with multiple types of landowners from small family-run farms to large corporate owners.
FARMERS AND LARGE COMMERCIAL OPERATORS
Solar projects are typically built on farmland or pastureland, as these areas are often flat, open, and well-suited for solar panels.
PRIVATE LANDOWNERS
Many individuals or families, who own large parcels of land, especially in rural or semi-rural areas, appreciate the steady source of income, without significant effort or investment on their part.
CORPORATIONS OR BUSINESSES
Solar leasing turns otherwise idle assets into revenue generating spaces, such as industrial sites, parking lots, or large rooftops.
MUNICIPALITIES AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
Solar leasing makes productive use of non-developable land, such as vacant land, brownfields, or landfill sites.
INDIGENOUS TRIBES
Many indigenous groups see solar leasing as opportunity for adding an additional source of income and increasing energy resilience in their community.
INSTITUTIONS AND NONPROFITS
Schools, universities, and nonprofits often see solar leasing as a way to align with sustainability goals and generate additional income.

— Mike, Landowner in California
PureSky Energy made the entire process straightforward and easy
“As a landowner, I was initially cautious about leasing my property for a battery storage project, but working with PureSky Energy made the entire process straightforward and easy. From the very first conversation, their team was professional, transparent, and responsive. They took the time to clearly explain each step, thoroughly answered my questions, and carefully reviewed my land to confirm it was well suited for development.”
— Duane, Landowner in New York
I would not hesitate to recommend them
“Overall, I found PureSky Energy to be professional, easy to work with, and trustworthy, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to other landowners considering a similar opportunity.”
— Gary, Landowner in New York
Working with PureSky has been much easier than I anticipated
“We thought about several options for our land. We weren’t inclined to continue to farm it or sell it for development, so we decided that a solar farm was the best option. We all have to do our part to be environmentally responsible, and what better way to do so than hosting a solar farm?
Working with PureSky has been much easier than I anticipated. They’ve been professional from start to finish and are very responsive whenever I’ve reached out.
— Bill Landford, Landowner of the Elmbrook and Cedar Hill Solar Farms in New York
We would have had to sell the land for development if we didn’t have the extra income from hosting solar.
“I’ve been hosting solar for about a decade, because I think, environmentally, it’s the right thing to do. Solar is more beneficial than trees, and that’s a hard thing to take as a landowner, but I know I’m doing the right thing by hosting PureSky’s solar farm. We would have had to sell the land for development if we didn’t have the extra income from hosting solar.
PureSky has been a great partner. The local team they assigned us have been so personable, so concerned, and so interested in what people and the town care about. They live right next door, and that’s important. They’ve been so conscientious, thoughtful and caring. I’m just totally impressed.”
— Cinda Jones, Landowner in New York, President at W.D. Cowls Inc. – Host of the Ware-Palmer Solar Farm in Ware, Massachusetts
