As the first thoughts of autumn are upon us, you might be wondering what this new season means for your solar system. In some states that experience more precipitation and less sunshine, autumn can mean a dip in production. But in Colorado, you can still count on high production. While the trend is still turning towards shorter days and longer nights, our sunny Colorado weather ensures that you’ll still get good production, even in the dead of winter.

“On the solar side of things, working with people who have been here 15+ years has brought me up to a level I don’t think I would be with another company where there wasn’t as much knowledge. People like Jon Ernst on the design team, Tom Zwahlen in estimating, and Jon Wedel as the VP of Commercial have helped me so much. Just by being in proximity to them and learning from their technical expertise has been career elevating.” – Rachel Mountain, Director of Commercial Sales, on how Namaste Solar has helped develop her skills and career.

We’re the one of longest locally owned and operated solar companies in Colorado. As we approach 20 years of installing solar on the Front Range, we can’t help but be grateful to our communities that have allowed us to serve them for so long. Being a local company means that we have a vested interest in the work that we do. We live here. We work here. And we know that the work we do here directly impacts our wider community.

“The sooner you get solar, the faster you’re going to break even. The faster you get to the break-even point, the more money you can put towards saving for retirement, saving for experiences, or whatever is important to you in life. And the longer you wait, that “future” money just shrinks because you’re giving more and more money to Xcel or whoever your provider is.” – Brian Litchenheld, a financial planner with BSW Wealth Partners, on solar as an investment.

The national average for electricity rates in 1999 was about $.08 cents per kWh. This summer, the cheapest you can get electricity from Xcel in Colorado is at $.12/kWh and on-peak rates are a whopping $.32/kWh. If you could have locked in 1999’s electricity rates, would you have? Solar is the Costco of energy, letting you buy in bulk so you can save for decades. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/4ck9tKE

Investing in our people is in our DNA at Namaste Solar. And we love to partner with organizations who share similar values.
Getting our students hands on experience is crucial to what we do at The Masters Apprentice. Recently we got to show our students how Namaste Solar runs and how they work on a live job site. Experiences like these are so valuable and will set our students up for great success! Here are some of our favorite photos from the event!
