Maktinta Energy is a design-build engineering firm in Campbell, California. We started in 1999 as an engineering company, moved into solar thermal in 2005, added energy efficiency controls in 2015, and expanded into data center cooling in 2022. Every system we deliver is engineered in-house by the same team that commissions it.
That structure is unusual in this market. Most commercial solar work is split, one firm designs, another installs, and the gap between them is where schedule and performance go. We hold both, which is why our clients tend to be the ones with load profiles that do not tolerate guesswork: colocation operators, municipalities, school districts, and facilities with process heat requirements.
Design-Build Contractors You Trust
We manage the entire design-build process in house combining engineering precision with hands on installation expertise.
Commercial Solar PV Design-Build
Rooftop, ground-mount, and carport photovoltaic systems engineered against your actual load profile rather than a nameplate estimate. We handle Title 24 compliance, interconnection, and NEM 3.0 economics; including whether storage is warranted, which under current export rates it usually is.
Assessment
We measure your actual load: consumption data, thermal profile, roof or site constraints, and utility rate structure. No proposal is issued from assumptions.
Engineering
Our team secures permits and coordinates with building departments for smooth, on-time approvals.
Build & Commission
We install, commission, and verify against the model. If measured performance misses the design, that is our problem to solve, not a variance to explain.
