Simple. Local. Solar.

In 2008, not long after we’d heard Van Jones speak about the coming Green Collar Economy at the Academy of Natural Sciences, we launched with a dual-mission to educate and install. We knew that, in order to accomplish our objective of making the rise of solar a benefit to all' in our communities, we had to design a business model that wasn't industry standard.

Solar is coming. Our concern is "how will it come?". As you'll see below, every new installation with Solar States fuels free education programs, local hiring, outstanding employee benefits and treatment, local advocacy, and access to solar for low-moderate income residents. Our success is everybody's success.
