groSolar Rewards Dealers for Amazing 2011 with a Caribbean Vacation

“2011 was a pivotal year for the PV industry.  groSolar’s dealers played a big part in helping to significantly lower the cost of PV, making the investment more viable and within reach for more home and business owners,” said Jeff Wolfe, CEO, groSolar.  “We select our dealers carefully and appreciate the partnership they bring to the table.  We decided to offer this trip as a token of appreciation for their hard work, commitment, and dedication to our procurement division in providing high quality PV installations from coast to coast.”

groSolar procures products for its dealers from a long list of the solar industry’s highest quality PV, inverter, racking, and balance-of-system manufacturers, including Canadian Solar.  Canadian Solar has become the module-of-choice for groSolar’s dealers.  groSolar selected Canadian Solar as its partner for this incentive program because of the value it brings to groSolar’s business model and the rest of the U.S. PV industry.

“groSolar is a leader in solar dealers’ support and services, and Canadian Solar-one of the top-tiered solar manufacturers--is dedicated to long-term support of groSolar’s  program,” said Alan King, General Manager of Canadian Solar (USA) Inc.

The contest period runs from January 16 to March 15, at which point winning dealers will be contacted.  The vacation is scheduled for April 19-22 in the Dominican Republic.  For more information, including contest rules, please visit this page.  Talkin’ Sun in the Sun contestants must be groSolar dealers.  To apply to become a groSolar dealer, please visit this page.
