Over the course of roughly the last 15 years, residential solar has gone from being something of a rarity, where today it is estimated that of all of the areas in the US which are approved for solar, 1-in-20 homes (and counting) are solar energy dependent.

In July of 2025 the Federal Clean Energy Credit, also known as Regulation 25d was repealed, and shortly after a vast number of Companies within solar decided to close their doors permanently.

For those areas with an abundance of households with solar panel installs, it would be the expectation that there would not be as vast of a decline of providers in these areas, creating an expected marginal decline of the overall number of providers since these households will require post-install servicing.

It is typically expected that these systems are to be serviced every 3-4 years, and in most cases service providers will require a specialized and highly specific knowledge of solar and related technologies.

The State of Florida ranks 2nd only to California when it comes to overall household or residential installs, and in 2025 Florida surpassed California in new utility-scale solar installations.

We are representing a unique and multi-talented, horizontally-integrated Solar, and Heating, and Battery Back-Up Installer operating in the Northwest Region of the State of Florida.

Over the course of the past two decades, the Company has been able to develop processes and service lines which have allowed the Company to maintain operations through the ebbs-and-flows of the solar industry and overall economy. In developing systems, creating processes, and in positioning themselves as the premier experts in these several verticals, their longevity in the space speaks volumes; within these markets they have essentially created a recession proof operation.

An interesting phenomenon in the State of Florida among the competing providers in the State,up-to this point in time the majority of the other solar operators were more or less door-to-door, advertising, and marketing firms with little to no capabilities in installation, servicing, or ancillary services. It’s estimated that 8-out-of-10 of the solar Companies who were in the State were all essentially marketing Companies, who have now all permanently closed their doors.

In addition to the marketing firms closing their doors, the once prominent nationally recognized firms who have either over extended themselves or mismanaged their finances, are also implementing a significant downsizing, nearly all having essentially vanished which has resulted in something of a mass exodus– leaving hundreds-of-thousands of these solar households with very few established and capable service providers.

To add to the above, for those households with solar panels, it is estimated that only 5% of these solar households also have an accompanying battery back-up system. Where in recent times many of these households are recognizing the necessity of a battery back-up system. It is also estimated that in the Company’s immediate area there are ~15,000 solar households, who:

? Will be in need of post-installation servicing
? Will more than likely in the very near future be in the market for a battery back-up system as battery back-up power is being recognized as more-or-less a necessity in the State
? Who may also be in need of the Company’s addt’l services creating cross-selling opportunities for the Company

While it is the expectation that solar sales will decline in the coming years (the Company estimates that the demand for solar panel installations will decline to the tune of 40%-50% in 2026), when it comes to new solar panel installations the Company has pre-orders through Q2 of 2026.

Moreover, the Company is one of a handful of installers with large-scale commercial and governmental contracts to date, and has spent several years cultivating these relationships which will be passed on to a new Owner.
