Solar Power World recognized StraightUp Solar as the 163rd largest solar contractor in the United States on their 2023 Top Solar Contractors List. We are proud once again to be top 200 in the nation and a top solar installer for homes and businesses throughout Illinois and Missouri.
Last year, StraightUp Solar installed 9.4 MW (Megawatts) of solar energy for homeowners, businesses, governments, nonprofits, and educational institutions across Illinois and Missouri. Since our company’s founding in 2006, we have installed 54 MW of solar power from over 3,000 projects.
The Top Solar Contractors list is developed each year by industry magazine Solar Power World to honor the work of solar installers in the United States. Solar firms in the utility, commercial and residential markets are ranked by number of kilowatts installed in the previous year. Companies are grouped and listed by specific services, markets and states. Solar Power World is the leading online and print resource for news and information regarding solar installation, development and technology.
“Renewable energy accounts for a quarter of U.S. electrical generation, now far exceeding electricity produced by burning coal,” said Kelsey Misbrener, managing editor of Solar Power World. “Solar power is an important member of that renewable makeup, and companies on the Top Solar Contractors List are contributing to our country’s shift to cleaner electricity. We are honored to recognize them each year for their necessary work putting green kilowatts on roofs, over parking lots, in desert locations and across water reservoirs. Every project is making a difference.”
The United States reported its strongest first-quarter ever in Q1 2023 for solar panels installed, and industry analysts expect the solar market to triple in size over the next five years.
We thank our incredible team of installers, project managers, and operations professionals, and of course, our valued community of solar PV system owners who made this ranking possible! We are on pace for an even stronger 2023!
