Any mechanism that can be ofered to the solar industry to help increase the proliferation of solar and help the market grow is a good thing. We believe solar group buy programs are beneficial for smaller contractors as they allow them access to equipment at prices they otherwise would not be able to negotiate as an individual entity. While this doesn’t negatively impact larger contractors like ourselves, it does increase the competition for access to those products at those prices and can play a part in our own negotiations. Overall, we are happy that group buy programs give purchasing power to new companies getting started, and we wish them success as our industry continues to thrive. — Kristen Drigon, senior VP of corporate operations for Trinity Solar (No. 39 overall) = EPC = INSTALLATION SUBCONTRACTOR = ELECTRICAL SUBCONTRACTOR = DEVELOPER = ROOFTOP CONTRACTOR = MANUFACTURER INSTALLER TOTAL KILOWATTS RES.

From my perspective, EnergySage provides a one-stop shop for homeowners interested in making the switch to solar. These online marketplaces help piece together the solar puzzle by ofering invaluable tools for prospective clients to learn everything from the basics to filling in the blanks on topics like of-grid installations. An online platform can be less intimidating than the initial face-to- face meeting with a salesperson. Solar companies can really benefit from the education EnergySage ofers like solar options and technology, ability to view multiple bids and view company ratings. All these things can help dismiss a homeowner’s hesitations about solar. — David Williamson, CEO Residential Install and co-founder of Titan 16.2 kW Solar Power (No. 42 overall) Goodyear, Arizona = UTILITY CONTRACTOR = RESIDENTIAL CONTRACTOR = COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL CONTRACTOR = OFF-GRID CONTRACTOR TOTAL KILOWATTS OVERALL RANK COMPANY RANK CITY STATE FOUNDED EMPLOYEES INSTALLED INSTALLED KILOWATTS IN 2017 MARKET 1 Titan Solar Power 42 Gilbert AZ 2014 265 75,845 46,922.1 2 PetersenDean 51 Fremont CA 1984 3,000 222,000 35,341.7 3 Semper Solaris 72 El Cajon CA 2012 305 63,370 19,370.3 4 Skyline Solar 83 Hamilton NJ 2010 85 51,337 15,033.4 5 ReVision Energy 94 Portland ME 2003 250 38,629 13,055.0 6 Baker Electric Home Energy 96 Escondido CA 2007 184 57,731 12,672.8 7 GRID Alternatives 102 Oakland CA 2001 350 42,957 11,235.2 8 Envirosolar 103 San Antonio TX 2012 125 31,595 11,140.1 9 Infinity Energy 110 Rocklin CA 2014 130 18,430 9,830.8 10 Sullivan Solar Power 115 San Diego CA 2004 101 66,607 8,823.0 11 Sunpro Solar 116 Mandeville LA 2008 142 31,788 8,788.4 12 Powerhome Solar 132 Mooresville NC 2014 250 45,119 6,892.9 13 LA Solar Group 137 Los Angeles CA 2012 75 19,464 6,502.4 14 Newport Power 139 San Clemente CA 2008 40 31,102 6,251.9 68 SOLAR POWER WORLD 7 • 2018 www.solarpowerworldonline.com Rooftop_6-18_Vs1.indd 68 7/11/18 11:56 AM Is your business more afected by national or state- level policies?

  • PG&E Signs Historic 800 MW Photovoltaic Solar Power
    PG&E Signs Historic 800 MW Photovoltaic Solar Power Agreements With OptiSolar and SunPower Solar Projects Would Supply Enough Renewable Energy Equivalent to the Energy Needs of 239,000 Californian Homes SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 14, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- Pacific Gas and Electric Company today announced it has entered into two utility-scale, photovoltaic (PV) solar power contracts for a total of 800 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy. This significant commitment to photovoltaic technology will deliver cumulatively 1.65 billion kilowatt-hours of renewable energy annually. This would be equivalent to the amount of energy needed to serve approximately 239,000 residential homes each year. PG&E entered into an agreement with Topaz Solar Farms LLC, a subsidiary of OptiSolar Inc., for 550 MW of thin-film PV solar power. The utility also signed a contract with High Plains Ranch II, LLC, a subsidiary of SunPower Corporation (Nasdaq: SPWR), for 250 MW of high-efficiency PV solar power. "These landmark agreements signal the arrival of utility-scale PV solar power that may be cost-competitive with solar thermal and wind energy," said Jack Keenan, chief operating officer and senior vice president for PG&E. "We will continue to explore such innovative technologies as we aggressively work to increase the amount of renewable energy we provide our customers." Utility-scale PV solar projects feature photovoltaic solar modules, which convert sunlight directly into electricity and produce the greatest amounts of power during the afternoons, when electricity demand is high. Both projects are contingent upon the extension of the federal investment tax credit for renewable energy and processes to expedite transmission needs.
