Paramount Energy Solutions Hits 1000th Solar Sales Mark

Expects to Double Growth in Jobs in 2011

ROSEVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ParamountEnergy Solutions, the solar division of Paramount Equity, has hit a major milestone with the sale of its 1000th PV solar panel system. This landmark goal came just eighteen months after the solar division was established in July 2009. Paramount Energy Solutions was developed to help homeowners utilize renewable energy and save money on utility costs by using a “solar made simple” approach. The company attributes its growth and success to a unique financing option known as SolarLease®, high customer satisfaction and a hard-working, dedicated sales team.

The groundbreaking SolarLease is a result of a partnership between Paramount Energy Solutions and SolarCity®. SolarLease can allow homeowners to pay less for solar electricity than they pay for electricity from their power company. The partnership with SolarCity provides a one-stop, streamlined process for busy homeowners that includes financing, custom design, solar installation, permits, rebate paperwork and ongoing solar system monitoring. Paramount Energy Solutions makes SolarLease available to homeowners in California and Arizona.

Customer satisfaction has played a key role in the rapid growth of the company. One satisfied customer, John Finegan, remarked, “The whole process has been amazing and simple in terms of explanation, requirements, and paper work. The people at Paramount Energy Solutions made the process so easy. What was the best part? I save about $200-$300 a month on my electricity bill! It really was a great experience from start to finish.”

The savings made simple philosophy and high customer satisfaction has created new jobs in the Sacramento region, too.. “It has been very exciting to see this company grow so quickly. We started with just five employees and have grown to 28 in a very short period of time. Our growth in sales volume has made us one of the largest residential solar companies in the state of California and we’re just getting started.” says Hayes Barnard, owner of Paramount Equity. Paramount Energy Solutions recently expanded into a new headquarters facility in Roseville, California, to accommodate their plan to double in size within the year.
