Peninsula Solar is proud to call Marquette home. Our headquarters is at 550 Hawley St, and since 2011, we've designed and installed solar and battery storage systems for homes, businesses, and off-grid properties throughout Marquette County and the surrounding U.P.
If you're a Marquette homeowner or business owner, you already know what UPPCO territory brings: long winters, heavy lake-effect snow loads, and power outages that can stretch for days after a bad storm rolls off Lake Superior. Solar paired with battery storage isn't a lifestyle upgrade up here; it's practical insurance against a grid that isn't always dependable.

Why the Greater Marquette Area Chooses Peninsula Solar
Local, not outsourced. Every phase of your project — design, electrical engineering, structural work, wiring, and commissioning — is handled in-house by our licensed Marquette-based team, not subcontracted.
Built for UP winters. Our systems are engineered for extreme snow load and cold-weather performance, not just installed and hoped for.
Grid outage protection. With lithium iron phosphate battery storage, your home or business keeps running through UPPCO outages — no generator scramble, no frozen pipes while you wait for the utility.

Local FAQ
- Does Marquette get enough sun for solar to make sense? Yes. Marquette's summer daylight hours and clear-sky winter days provide strong solar production potential, and battery storage covers the gaps during Lake Superior's cloudier stretches.
- What happens to my solar system during a UPPCO outage? Without battery storage, grid-tied solar shuts off automatically during an outage for safety. With a battery system, your home or business keeps running independently — this is one of the main reasons Marquette customers add storage.
- Do you offer financing for Marquette installations? Yes — we're an Authorized Contractor of the Michigan Saves Loan Program (MiSAVES), which can be used for residential systems.
- Is my Marquette business eligible for the commercial tax credit? The 48E federal commercial clean energy credit is available for qualifying commercial systems placed in service before December 31, 2027. Read our full financing guide →
