🚀 Wand Solar Launches: Utility-Style Solar Billing for Landlords
Wand Solar recently launched!
"Enabling Solar Revenue for Income Properties"
TL;DR: Wand Solar — Bill Tenants for Solar Energy Like a Utility
Founded by Idan Shahar & Itai Peri
🔥 The Problem
Solar wasn’t built for rentals.
Today, landlords invest in solar systems for their rental properties, but tenants get all the savings.
Landlords pay tens of thousands upfront—and see no return. ❌
They spoke with dozens of landlords who installed solar on their house, but when they moved out and kept it as a rental, they had no way to bill their tenants and recoup their investment.

⚡ What They are Building
Wand lets landlords bill tenants for solar energy—just like a utility.
- 💰 Tenants pay what they normally would for electricity (or less)
- 🏠 Landlords finally earn from the solar systems they paid for
- ⚡ Same utility line items and tariffs. Full transparency
- ✨ Want to offer a deal? Set your own discount (e.g., 10%, 15%)
- 💳 Tenants pay by credit card—just like any other utility
- 🏦 Landlords get paid via wire transfer
No additional hardware. No tenant disruption. Just new income from the sun.
You earn first, they only earn when you do - they charge 10% of the solar revenue you collect.
🔄 How It Works
- Add your property and connect your solar system - just enter basic property info and link your solar setup.
- Wand tracks solar usage in 15-minute intervals - they measure how much solar energy your tenants use—accurately, throughout the month.
- They generate monthly solar bills using your utility’s rates - the bills reflect the same line items and tariffs your utility company uses.
- Tenants receive transparent, familiar-looking bills - nothing confusing—just clear, itemized solar billing that looks like a standard utility bill.
- Tenants pay, you get paid - tenants pay by card, you receive automatic transfers. You keep 90%, they take 10%.
💡 Why They Built This
Before Wand, they built a DevOps startup. But they wanted to work on something with deeper impact—something that could actually move the needle on climate.
Then they saw this stat:
55% of electricity in the U.S. is used in rental properties.
Yet solar adoption in rentals is almost nonexistent—because of the split incentive problem: landlords pay for solar, but tenants get the savings.
It’s a broken system. And it’s a massive opportunity—both for reducing carbon emissions and unlocking billions in untapped properties across the entire value chain.
They built Wand to fix it. Now, landlords can finally earn from solar, and tenants still benefit from clean, affordable energy. Win-win.
