We recently sailed passed a 1000 happy green solar customers the first quarter of 2011! Congrats to the clean energy heroes at Paramount Energy Solutions, they passed this milestone in less than 2 years, which is a huge feat! The explosive growth further strengthens our solar division’s position in the residential solar market, and with ally SolarCity® at the ready – we’re set to double the growth this year!
Paramount Energy started with just 7 employees in late 2009 and now employs 28 people in Roseville, CA and serves customers in California, Oregon, Arizona and Colorado. Homeowners who purchase solar from Paramount Energy are able to enjoy the benefits of solar for as little as $0/down through the innovative SolarLease® program. By providing an all-in-one solution, which includes design, install, financing and monitoring, homeowners now don’t need to invest heavily upfront to receive the benefits of clean energy.
We recently let our employees know about our intention to partner with Guthy-Renker at our annual company event (Huddle 2011). With news coverage and even Sacramento Mayor, Kevin Johnson stopping by, the atmosphere was electric! Check out the video and head on over to the press room to read the full press release.
Hey Rocklin, did you know that Paramount Energy along with it’s partner SolarCity claim 1 out of 3 homes in Rocklin going solar?! We’re at the top of the list out of 50 solar companies in the area! We’re eager to help more homeowners in Rocklin make the switch to clean green renewable energy – give us a ring and we’ll help you go green and help you save some green!
Let the SUN power your next fundraising event. With Paramount Energy’s SUNraising program we can help your non-profit organization raise money while making a positive impact on the environment.
According to the CA Solar Initiative, residential solar installations are growing over 30% a year. That’s a lot of households going solar! Our fundraising solution taps into this ever growing market. Paramount Energy Solutions, along with our partner, SolarCity®, allows families to go solar for $0 down and start saving money in the first month of service while providing much needed funding for their school or charity.
In Northern California, it’s not uncommon to spot wild turkeys wandering past the windows, or see a bluebird alight gently onto the perch of his birdhouse. On a daily basis, we hear the quack-quack of mallard ducks as they fly overhead, and hear the splash as they land in the stream flowing through a grassy meadow. In springtime, we are serenaded by the sunshine-infused cheers of a chorus of songbirds.
If this sounds more like a habitat refuge to you than a corporate headquarters, you’re right.
Last fall, Paramount Equity’s executives spent 8 days in Mali, Africa helping to build a schoolhouse. Customers, employees and friends raised $37,000 for buildOn, an organization which builds schools in developing countries.
“As the father of three young children I believe all kids should receive a basic education to help them rise above poverty,” said Hayes Barnard, president of Paramount Equity. “I’m elated that my co-workers and our customers share the sentiment and am so proud of our team for taking part in this incredible effort to help the world’s youth. I encourage everyone to be a good global citizen and help others any way they can.”
Here is a short video with photos and film clips from the trip:
Paramount Equity was able to give us the complete package-refinance, solar and lowered our insurance rates. The entire transaction took under two weeks. Paramount Equity has staff that is very knowledgeable in all areas, insurance, mortgage and solar and they made it very easy for us. I would recommend them to all of my friends.”
