Services
Land Leasing
Our land leasing program transforms agricultural properties into revenue-generating solar farms. Landowners receive immediate income through competitive annual payments while maintaining property ownership. We handle all development aspects including permitting, construction, and ongoing maintenance. Lease terms typically range from 25-45 years with annual escalators to protect against inflation.
Solar Farm Development
We develop utility-scale solar energy projects from initial site assessment through construction and commissioning. Our services include grid interconnection studies, environmental permitting, and power purchase agreement negotiation. We specialize in creating community solar gardens that provide clean energy benefits to local utility customers while delivering long-term value to property owners.
Power Purchase Agreements
Our customized power purchase agreements help businesses achieve sustainability goals while securing favorable energy pricing. We offer both physical and virtual net metering arrangements with contract terms from 5-35 years. Our solutions include price stabilization mechanisms and performance guarantees to protect against market volatility while supporting ESG objectives.
Land Acquisition
We provide expedited land acquisition services for property owners seeking immediate liquidity. Our streamlined process delivers 60-day closings with competitive cash offers for eligible properties. We specialize in purchasing land suitable for renewable energy infrastructure including solar farms, battery storage facilities, and transmission corridors across North America.
Ground Lease Buyouts
Our ground lease buyout program offers property owners a lump sum payment in exchange for terminating existing solar lease agreements. This solution provides immediate capital while eliminating long-term obligations. We handle all legal documentation and provide clear, transparent valuations based on remaining lease terms and future payment schedules.

At lease expiration, we remove all equipment and restore the land to its original condition.

We had a great experience with YSG solar! Would highly recommend them to any friends/family that are looking for the same. Work for us was quick, effortless, and pain free as possible compared to other horror stories we have heard from other vendors.

YSG are the go to solar guys. Two of my colleagues had systems installed by two of the bigger name companies and both of them have had non stop issues since their systems were installed in 2017 and 2018. I had a hard time finding a solar contractor after listening to their experiences until I met YSG at a trade show out in Staten Island in 2019. After about a year of going back and forth we finally pulled the trigger and had our system installed January 2020, right before the pandemic hit. Throughout all the shut downs and issues out of their control YSG was able to keep me in the loop and the

My Tesla is now being charged from the sun! thank you YSG Solar. In September we started searching for a solar panel company. My neighbor used another company that we met previously who came to our home to provide us an estimate. We started the process and after months nothing occurred, my husband ended up cancelling. We called YSG and within one day of calling we received the estimate. From the day the paperwork was signed until the panel system had been installed was just weeks. This was a big relief. It was not an easy decision for us to go electric with our car. YSG even installed our Tesla

The team to install led by James and Eric were awesome. They accommodated the ideas I had about the system install and even accommodated some semi last minute equipment changes my husband wanted to make regarding different looking panels. The work looks great and they cleaned up very well. Really nice guys, they even took the time to go over the system with my son so he can keep an eye on it when we're out of town for half the year. We had our system installed in June 2020 and have already banked a good amount of power with Coned above what we used, which used to be around $250/month. Couldn't

Where do I start from? My Awful Experience with YSG began back in February 2020. After numerous of phone calls with Kenneth, the sales associate, pushing to sign the contract to have YSG install my solar. Upon our conversation he promised that the system will be fully installed before April of 2020 which of course it never happened because YSG doesn't have installers. FYI, YSG sublease their contracts, which means you are not dealing with installers that directly work with them.
Finally, they scheduled dates in June of 2020, I would call out of work, but they would not show up for various

I don't actually think I've ever dealt with a less competent company. The odd thing is, their incompetence is almost equally matched with arrogance and rudeness. I ordered solar from YSG in July of 2019. It was an entire Brooklyn roof of panels. 26 panels, about 26k for the entire install, before rebates etc.
It's now February, 2021 and YSG still hasn't completed the work. They've missed or broken dozens and dozens of appointments and promises. I literally have been calling, emailing, screaming and fighting with this company for almost two years. I've seen employee
