Solar Design Associates (SDA) is North America's oldest, largest, and most respected building design firm dedicated to the artistic integration of solar energy in homes and buildings.

For over 25 years, SDA's architects and engineers have incorporated renewable energy systems - such as solar electric power - into the design of commercial buildings and custom homes.

Solar Design Associates' combination of building design and PV systems engineering expertise, coupled with its unmatched record of field experience, makes the firm uniquely qualified to support architects, electric utilities, private clients and PV manufacturers in the development and commercialization of solar electric components and systems used in building-integrated applications.

Fees for design, engineering and planning services are often negotiated based on a percentage of project cost and depend on the scope of the project and the degree of specialized engineering required. Short-term assignments and consulting work are often undertaken on an hourly basis.

Each and every decision we make can help to build a sustainable society. Your new building will last for many decades - perhaps for generations. The effort and resources you invest in its design and construction will be returned to you every day for years to come.
