Our team has over 30 years of solar experience in Maine's solar industry.

We’ve built roof-mounted solar, concrete and steel ground-mounted solar, and since developing the Maine Solar Shed have come to see how often it’s the best solution. Maine Solar Sheds is a project of Upright Energy in collaboration with Backyard Buildings.

Thinking about solar but not sure your roof is up to it? You're not alone, and it's a great reason to look at a solar shed. Before you commit to anything, we'd suggest asking yourself three honest questions:

1. How much electricity do you actually use? Start with your bills. Knowing your numbers makes every other decision easier.

2. What does your property offer? Look at sun exposure, open space, and whether your roof gets enough light. If shade or roof limits are holding you back, a solar shed can put the sun to work from the ground.

3. What do you want it to do? Power, storage, a workspace, or some combination? A solar shed can give you usable space and energy generation from the same footprint, which is hard to beat.

If your answers point toward more energy and more space, we'd love to show you what's possible. Our Amish-crafted, solar-equipped sheds are built for Maine properties, and many customers find they pay for themselves in around ten years. Tell us what you're working with and we'll walk through the models that fit your situation.

Your roof isn't the only option. Maine properties come in all shapes, and the cheapest upfront quote can cost you more down the road if the placement doesn't fit your land.

Ground mounts, rooftop systems, and solar sheds each have trade-offs in cost, space, and labor.

Tell us about your property and we'll help you figure out which setup actually makes sense.

Ever wonder if a solar shed actually pays off? We ran the numbers so you don't have to guess.

Here's the simple version: what you're spending on power today goes down once a solar shed starts generating. Add in grid-tied credits, and the upfront cost gets chipped away month by month. For most of the systems we've installed across Maine, the break-even lands around the ten-year mark.

The math comes down to three things:

• Your current energy bills
• How much power your shed produces
• The credits and savings that come back to you

Exact results depend on your property, your sun exposure, and how you use power. That's why we'd rather show you real numbers for your situation than promise a one-size-fits-all figure.

Want to see where your break-even point lands? Tell us a bit about your energy use and we'll put together a quote with your own numbers. Save this post so you have the breakdown handy when you start comparing options.

Fall is the season to get your place ready for Maine winters. Gutters, firewood, storm windows, maybe a last look at the furnace. We'd love to hear what's on your list.

Here's something to add: your solar shed is built to produce power through the cold months, too. A quick fall check keeps the panels clear, the connections sound, and the system running at its best when the days get short and the snow starts to fly. Renewable, cost-effective power all season long takes very little effort once you've got the routine down.

Tell us in the comments what you already do to prep. Homeowners and small business owners always have a few tricks worth sharing, and we'd love to learn from you.

Maine farms already run on tight margins, and storage and power eat into what's left. We build pre-built solar sheds, hand built by Amish Craftsmen and fitted with solar technology, so you can store your equipment, get a workspace, and generate your own power on land you already own.

Think about the tools, feed, and gear you're keeping in sheds or barns right now. What if that same structure was also producing electricity for your operation? That's the idea behind a solar shed. Over 100 have gone up across Maine, and many pay for themselves in around ten years.

Every farm is different, so sizing and cost depend on your site, your load, and your goals. We're happy to walk through the numbers with you. Tap 'Get a Quote' and we'll help you see whether a solar shed fits your farm.

Most Maine homeowners we talk with assume solar payback comes down to how many panels fit on the roof. Here's the part that often gets overlooked: the credit rate you receive for power your shed sends back to the grid through net metering is what really sets the timeline.

When your grid-tied solar shed produces more than you use, that excess energy gets credited against your bill. The higher that credit value, the faster your investment earns its way back. That's how our pre-built, Amish-crafted solar sheds are often able to pay for themselves in around ten years, even on properties where a roof install just isn't practical.

We're curious: what do you think your rate is per kilowatt-hour? Take a guess in the comments, or send us a message and we'll walk through your numbers with a personalized payback estimate for your property.

We've installed over 100 solar sheds across Maine, and we love helping Mainers turn underused space into energy-producing workspace. Whether it's storage, a garden shed, a he-shed, or a business space, we're happy to answer your questions.

Your roof has limits. Your ambition doesn't.

We've built over 100 solar sheds across Maine-each one a solution for homeowners and business owners who refused to settle for 'that won't work on my roof.' A solar shed is how you take control: your space, your energy, your independence.

What would you build with the extra space?

Your electric company can change what electricity costs. The sun hasn't sent us a rate-increase notice yet.

A Maine Solar Shed lets you generate energy right on your property, helping offset what you buy from the grid—and giving you useful space at the same time.

Somehow, every year your house gets another kayak, three more totes of holiday decorations, a snowblower, gardening supplies, and about 47 things nobody wants to throw away.

You could just get a shed. Or you could get a shed that helps pay your electric bill. ☀️

Maine Solar Sheds give you the storage you need and a grid-tied solar array that generates energy for your home. Same backyard. Much harder-working building.
