SUNPOWER OF ARIZONA has been serving Southern Arizona continuously since 1981.  We have a reputation for providing only the best products and services.  Most importantly, we have a track record of reliably and consistently delivering what we promise not just during the initial planning and installation but for years…and decades… after the sale.

• Mission Statement.  To provide the finest solar and energy efficiency products and services in Southern Arizona.  To build a high integrity, customer focused, growth-oriented company that is a positive factor:
  • in our employee’s lives,
  • for the customers we serve,
  • in the communities we operate
    
    
• We have an engineering, technical, and administrative staff with extensive experience covering all aspects of solar energy systems design and installation.  Our principal owner has a B.S.E.E. and M.S.E.E. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Arizona, is a Arizona licensed Professional Engineer, and has done graduate level work in control systems, power distribution, and renewable energy.  Our lead technicians average over 20 years of solar and construction industry experience.  They are certified by the State of Arizona and the Arizona Solar Energy Industry Association.    
   
• We use only the most reliable, highest quality products which have proven themselves in over 4,000 installations throughout Southern Arizona over the last three decades.  The quality and responsiveness of our service over the years has made us the preferred repair and service provider by insurance companies for solar hot water systems regardless of the manufacturer or original installer.  We are also the primary solar contractor for some of the most experienced builders and architects in Southern Arizona.  Our customers find it reassuring that we, and the companies we represent, have a history that exceeds the length of the warranties we provide. 
  
  
• We are a locally owned company with deep roots in Southern Arizona.  We expect to be here for many years to come and are committed to being active members of the community who give something back.
