Key Solar Recognized as a Top Solar Contractor in Massachusetts

Key Solar, LLC, the fastest growing commercial installer and developer in New England, announced today that they have been recognized by Solar Power World Magazine for its contributions to the industry, especially in Massachusetts. Key Solar ranked 6th on the Top Solar Contractors in Massachusetts and 122 out of 450 in the United States.

The Top Solar Contractors list is developed annually by Solar Power World to recognize the work completed by solar contractors across the United States. The Top Solar Contractors list celebrates the achievements of U.S. solar developers, subcontractors and installers within the utility, commercial and residential markets, and ranks contractors by kilowatts installed in the previous year.

"Solar Power World is very excited about the 2018 class of Top Solar Contractors," said Kelly Pickerel, Editor in Chief of Solar Power World. "Our 2017 list showed impressive installation numbers after 2016's huge rush to meet ITC requirements, and many companies were hesitant to show unavoidable installation dips after last year's high. We're happy to feature a strong group of thriving U.S. solar installers, including Key Solar, on the 2018 Top Solar Contractors list. These companies truly are at the top of their markets."

“Key Solar is honored to be part of the 2018 Top Solar Contractors list,” said Kevin Price, Managing Partner and Co-Founder of Key Solar. “The solar industry continues to outpace other sources of energy, and we’re proud to be a part of this growth. Every day we show building and business owners that the return on investment (ROI) in solar is greater than most other investments. We look forward to the continued industry growth and being part of it.”

The U.S. solar market had its biggest year ever in 2016, installing more than 15,000 MW. Although installations in 2017 dropped to 10,608 MW, the total still represents 40% growth over 2015 numbers. The year-over-year downturn can be attributed to the large influx of 2016 projects rushing to meet the anticipated expiration of a 30% federal tax credit that was eventually renewed. Last year also saw uncertainty surrounding potential Section 201 tariffs on imported solar panels, which may have led to delayed or canceled projects.
