Leading Solar Distributor, groSolar, Selected to Represent Xunlight

“The key to groSolar’s success and credibility in the solar marketplace is thanks largely in part to our focus on helping dealers expand their markets with new high quality products and services,” said groSolar Co-Founder and CEO, Jeff Wolfe.  “We select our product lines carefully.  Every product we offer has a rock solid track record and is of the highest quality.  Xunlight’s portfolio of high quality and affordable flexible a-Si thin film modules provides yet another profitable opportunity for our dealers.”

 By offering Xunlight’s product line, groSolar’s dealers will instantly broaden their markets.   Traditional mono and poly silicon PV modules require only about half the amount of roof space as Xunlight modules for the same amount of power.  However, Xunlight modules don’t require racking, as they roll out and attach to a wide variety of roof types, using their proprietary adhesives, eliminating the cost of racking and extra associated labor costs.  Xunlight modules also operate in low light conditions and weigh less than a pound per square foot.  They can be mounted on roof tops not capable of handling the weight associated with traditional silicon modules.  

“We’re really excited to have groSolar as our distribution and sales partner.  This will allow dealers and independent solar contractors to have full access to Xunlight’s product line at a one-stop-shop,” said VP of Sales for Xunlight, Chuck Parker. With our headquarters and manufacturing facility in Toledo Ohio and offices in California we are ideally positioned to work closely with groSolar’s sales team to bring training and application, design and sizing support to those dealers in a timely and efficient manner.”

“There are business owners out there who are ready, and willing to make the switch to clean, affordable solar electricity, who are unable, maybe because of weight restrictions or shading issues,” said Wolfe.  “Due to their low weight, simplified installation, and superior low-light performance, Xunlight’s modules provide a competitively priced solution which can bring solar energy to these businesses.”
