PROVO, UTAH, July 8, 2019 -- With renewable energy expected to be the fastest-growing source of U.S. electricity generation for at least the next two years, local solar installer ION Solar is happy to be contributing to the country's energy mix. ION Solar has been recognized by Solar Power World magazine for its installation efforts, achieving a rank of 79 out of 415 solar companies on the magazine's 2019 Top Solar Contractors list. ION Solar was also recognized as a top residential installer, ranked 11 out of 100 solar companies on the Residential Top 100 List. The Top Solar Contractors list is developed by Solar Power World to recognize the work completed by solar contractors across the United States. Produced annually, 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 enjoys assembling the Top Solar Contractors list each year, and our 2019 edition features hundreds of companies making big impacts in local energy markets," said Kelly Pickerel, editor in chief of Solar Power World. "Solar power is becoming competitive with traditional electricity sources in more markets, and cities and states are demanding more renewable energy options. It's a great time to be a solar installer, and we're happy to highlight the best installation companies in the country on our list. "The U.S. solar market is expected to see 14% growth in 2019, with over 12 GW of new solar power added to the grid this year — enough to power 2.28 million average American homes. This increase in installations is attributed to strong residential solar interest and a rush to get projects in before the 30% federal investment tax credit steps down to 26% next year. ION Solar employs 460 workers who installed 15,708 KW of solar power in 2018. Since its founding in 2013, the company has installed 86,333 KW of solar.
