About Brooklyn Solarworks

Founded in 2015 by industry veterans, the company tackled New York City’s tight rooftop constraints with patented canopy systems.

Built a specialty division, 'Solar for Construction,' to embed solar early in new

build and renovation projects alongside architects.

Their patented Brooklyn Solar Canopy lifts panels above obstructions, unlocking solar potential on landmark and flat rooftops.

Engaged in policy innovation — influencing zoning and tax

credit legislation to expand urban solar deployment.

Typical projects span brownstones, multifamily houses, co‑ops, HDFC housing, nonprofits, and commercial buildings.

Known for fast installs (often one day), production guarantees, and standout NYC customer satisfaction and referrals.
