WE ARE AMONG THE MOST EXPERIENCED IN THE GAME
Solar isn’t a new technology, but rooftop solar energy became a viable industry only recently. Technology has advanced sufficiently in the last few years that rooftop solar actually saves you money, whereas before it was prohibitively expensive. We at KW Solar were in the business way back when solar was more of a hobby. WE OPTIMIZE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
AND DELIVERY
It’s like bringing the railroad to the frontier. Photovoltaic energy has been around for decades, but it has only recently become financially viable. The race for operational excellence is in its infancy, and we have the skill set to stay at the forefront. KW Solar is committed to maximizing our people’s effectiveness by continually systematizing every aspect of our business, through superior training, cultivating a strong company culture, and process automation. WE ARE OWNER OPERATED AND OPERATOR OWNED
Keeping ownership firmly concentrated in our company’s leadership allows us to effectively serve one master: our customer. KW Solar has intentionally shunned enthusiastic investors, instead retaining all decision-making power for the people who live the realities of those decisions in the day-to-day. Detached, profit-hungry investors often make the wrong call for the long-term health of the company, so we stay far away from them. We’re a bootstrapped, debt-free business focused 100% on our work. WE LOVE THE HELL OUT OF THIS BUSINESS
The holy grail of life in the 21st century is to truly love – and find purpose in – your job. Solar is environmentally, economically, and emotionally superior to other forms of energy production, and proliferating the world with clean sun power is easy to adopt as one’s life work, in addition to one’s business. WE EMPLOY A STRAIGHTFORWARD BUSINESS MODEL
The first rule of business is simple: buy it for x, sell it for more. We strive to make a profit, to keep our company healthy and our kids fed. But we’ve found that doing a good, honest day’s work is a fantastic way to limit our risk and maintain consistent, predictable finances. We offer premium solar panel installation services at a very fair price. No hidden fees, no rebates, no gimmicks. When you work with KW Solar, you get a beautiful, cost-reducing, planet-saving solar array, and we get fairly compensated for our efforts. WE OPERATE ON MARKET FORCES, NOT POLICY
The nascent solar industry is testing a variety of business models, many of which are likely to fail. Huge companies have bet the house on tax policies and creative profit structures, only to see fickle legislators suddenly cut them off at the knees. KW Solar’s economics are based simply on how much a solar system costs to install, and how much the market can afford to pay for it. The 30% federal tax credit, which was recently extended through 2019, is a big help to our customer base and opens the market considerably. But we stay far away from creative tax tricks, risky structures, and any gimmick that can be swept away by a congressman’s pen.
