Rooftop Power started in Warwick, Rhode Island in 2017 with a simple conviction: going solar should be honest, local and built to last. Seven years and more than 3,027 installations later, that is still the whole playbook. We Are The Renewable Generation.
We did not arrive in New England with a national sales machine. We grew here, one referral at a time, from our headquarters on West Natick Road in Warwick. Today our own crews have completed more than 3,027 residential installations across Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Connecticut, with more than 5,065 solar projects on the books overall.
The model has never changed. Our electricians, roofers and installers are Rooftop Power employees. When we grow, we hire people, not subcontractors. That is why we were named a Top Work Places company in Rhode Island, and it is why the crew on your roof answers to the same name that is on your agreement.
Family owned and locally run means the people who sell the job, install the job and service the job all work under one roof. There is no national call center, no handoff to a stranger, and no chance that the company disappears when you need a warranty honored. We live where we work, and our reputation is the only marketing that has ever mattered to us.
The solar industry runs on subcontractors. Most of the big names sell you a system, then hire whatever roofing and electrical crew is cheapest that week to bolt it on. When something goes wrong, you are stuck between a salesperson who has moved on and a crew that was never really yours. We built Rooftop Power to be the opposite of that.
Because our crews are employees, accountability never leaves the building. The person who designs your array, the roofer who preps the deck, the electrician who ties in the panels and the tech who services it years later all wear the same badge. There is no finger-pointing, because there is no one else to point at. If a panel underperforms in year six, that is our problem to fix, and we do.
That structure is also what lets us hold a real craftsmanship standard. We are not passing a job to a low-bid crew and hoping. We train our own people, we set our own quality bar, and we inspect our own work. It is slower to build a company this way, and it is the only way we were willing to build one.
A few years ago, national solar companies collapsed and left Rhode Island homeowners stranded mid-project, with panels on the roof and nobody answering the phone. NBC 10’s I-Team covered what happened next. Rooftop Power stepped in to help finish jobs we did not sell and did not profit from starting.
We did it because those homeowners are our neighbors, and because somebody local had to. Some of them had paid in full for systems that were never switched on. We got them connected, got them producing, and got them a company they could actually call. If you were one of them, you already know our service team.
That is the kind of thing you can only do when you are rooted in one place. A company selling in forty states cannot show up for a stranded customer in Cranston or Coventry. We can, because this is home, and because the whole point of being local is that you do not get to walk away.
Rooftop Power is led by people who have spent their careers in renewable energy and still walk job sites. Beneath them is a bench of installers, roofers, electricians and coordinators who make the work real, and they are the reason our name means what it does in this market.
A driving force in the renewable energy movement, with experience at industry leaders like Tesla and SolarCity. Hyrum’s focus is simple: clean, affordable power for every homeowner who wants it, delivered with technical rigor.
Years of renewable energy expertise and a passion for helping New England families take control of their energy future. Scott has helped countless homeowners lower their bills while doing right by the planet.
Electricians, roofers, installers, service techs and coordinators, all Rooftop Power employees. They are the reason hundreds of homeowners rate us 4.8 stars, and the reason we can stand behind every roof we touch.
Most homeowners meet us for solar, but Rooftop Power is built to handle the whole energy picture for a New England home. We install residential and commercial solar, battery storage for backup power, EV chargers, standby generators, and we replace roofs, because a solar array belongs on a roof with real life left in it.
Being a roofing company as much as a solar company is not a side business, it is the point. When a roof needs work, we replace it and install the panels as one project, on one timeline, under one warranty, instead of coordinating two contractors and hoping they agree on who owns a leak. It is one of the biggest reasons homeowners pick a local installer that owns the entire job.
That full scope also means we can grow with your home. Start with solar, add a battery when you want outage protection, add an EV charger when the new car arrives, add a generator for the deep-winter nights. Because we designed the original system, every addition is clean, and every call comes back to the same company.
From that first conversation through installation day, we guide you with transparency, education and support. We put real numbers in writing before you commit, we pull the permits, we handle the utility interconnection with Rhode Island Energy, Eversource, National Grid or United Illuminating, and our own crews do the work, usually in one to three days on site.
We do not run a high-pressure sales floor. If solar does not make sense for your roof, your shading or your usage, we tell you before you sign, not after. A company that says yes to every house is not being straight with you, and we would rather lose a sale than earn a bad review from a system that never should have gone up.
And after your system is connected we do not walk away. We monitor performance, handle service and warranty claims locally, and teach you how to get the most out of your system. Solar is a 25-year relationship, and we build every part of the company to still be here for year 25.
The best way to understand who we are is to look at the work and the people who left the reviews. Here is where to start.
