Dan Hecht Chevrolet & Toyota was facing a challenge familiar to many businesses: rising utility costs that continued to increase overhead and reduce profitability year after year. With both a main dealership building and a separately metered body shop, the dealership explored solar energy as a solution. However, several proposals they received failed to address critical factors such as system sizing, municipal requirements, electrical interconnection constraints, and roof attachment considerations, putting the feasibility of the projects at risk.
Tick Tock Energy guided the dealership through a comprehensive project development process that uncovered these challenges early and created a solution designed to perform as promised. By combining technical expertise, transparent communication, and real-world experience, our team developed a solar energy system tailored to the site’s unique needs. One year after installation, a post-project analysis confirmed the results: the system offset 99% of the body shop’s energy costs and 77% of the main dealership’s energy consumption. Today, Dan Hecht Chevrolet & Toyota benefits from significantly reduced operating expenses, helping the business remain competitive by controlling one of its largest ongoing overhead costs.
