Rosendin
Electric Continues to Rise in the Annual Rankings of the Best Solar
Contractors in North America.
San
Jose, Calif. (September 13, 2014) -- Rosendin
Electric, the nation's largest private electrical
contractor and an employee-owned company, has earned the third place
ranking in Solar Power World's list of the Top 400 Solar Contractors
in North America. The publication also ranked Rosendin Electric
number one among the top 100 solar contractors in California; number
two among the top 50 solar specialists in engineering, procurement,
and construction (EPC); and number three among the top 25 utility
solar contractors.
Solar
Power World compiles an annual list that ranks solar contractors
throughout North America based on a variety of criteria, including
number of megawatts installed for the year and specific markets
served (e.g. utility, residential, or commercial). To date, Rosendin
Electric installed solar systems capable of generating 478 megawatts
(MW) to make the company number three in North America.
In
congratulating Rosendin Electric, Frank Andorka, Editorial Director
of Solar Power World, wrote, "Only a tiny fraction of the
nation's companies have demonstrated such remarkably consistent
excellence, particularly in the difficult economic environment of the
past few years. This achievement truly puts you in rarified company."
Rosendin
Electric's Solar Division specializes in installing utility-grade and
distributed generation (DG) solar projects. The company designs and
builds mid- to large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, including
substation design and installation, prefabrication, energy storage
systems, and ancillary systems. Rosendin Electric's Solar Division
has installed PC systems for commercial, hospitals, schools,
universities, and government facilities as well as utility-grade
solar farms. Project sizes range from 100 kW to more than 200 MW. And
Rosendin Electric performs more than 85 percent of its own EPC, which
mitigates risk for investors and makes contracts more viable for
financing since the company maintains total control over solar
project deliverables.
"Ranking
number three out of the top 400 North American contractors is a real
milestone for our solar group," said David Lincoln, Director of
Solar Operations for Rosendin Electric. "We are now installing
utility-grade solar systems across North America, as well as in
Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. Our growing reputation and EPC
capabilities continue to bring in new clients who see the value of
having Rosendin Electric on their team."
