We are extremely grateful to be named the 2020 Best Solar Company in Yolo County, as selected by Davis Enterprise readers. Our appreciation is buoyed by a singular emotion: We love what we do, and we take great pride in helping members of our community go solar. The trust our community places in Repower fuels our ambition to work harder and amplify our impact. Thank you!
From The Enterprise’s Best of Yolo issue:
“Wow,” said Chris Soderquist, who owns RepowerYolo along with John Walter. “We are beyond honored to be selected as the No. 1 solar company in our community. Our commitment to help property owners go solar — with the highest quality equipment, workmanship and service — is galvanized by the trust Repower homeowners place in our work.”
Since its inception in 2014, Soderquist says Repower has helped more local homeowners go solar than any other (local or national) solar company. In 2019, its business doubled — they helped more than twice as many homeowners go solar. “Since we do not advertise, market or employ salespeople,” Soderquist said, “we are thankful for the trust homeowners place in Repower. In total, we have helped more than 350 property owners in our community go solar.”
Repower’s mission is to simplify the process, improve the quality and reduce the cost of going solar for Yolo County property owners. It have a triple bottom line: When property owners go solar, they reduce PG&E costs, shrink their carbon footprint and support the community (through the YoloShines program, which donates $500 to the property owner’s favorite local nonprofit).
What makes them special? “We are hyper-focused solar geeks,” Soderquist said, “simpletons who do one thing: Solar PV systems for Yolo County property owners.”
Past accolades include the city of Davis’ 2018 Environmental Recognition Award and NextDoor’s No. 1 rated solar company in Yolo County. YoloShines has made more than $125,000 donations to local nonprofits.
