        "text": "Integrating solar-ready features during a renovation typically involves a marginal increase in the upfront project cost compared to a standard build. However, this initial investment is often significantly less than the expense and inconvenience of retrofitting these elements into an existing structure later. The added cost primarily covers structural reinforcements, electrical upgrades, and conduit installation. As a design-build partner, AKN Design Group provides upfront estimates and uses value engineering to ensure these preparations are handled efficiently, offering a clear understanding of the investment and its long-term benefits.",
