With the U.S. solar market booming in 2024, Green Power Energy continues to shine as a leader in the renewable energy sector. As of February 2024, over 4.2 million American homes have gone solar, making up nearly 5% of all single-family residences. This surge, driven by the Inflation Reduction Act and an 80% drop in solar costs since 2010, has created a thriving landscape for innovative companies like Green Power Energy.
This year, Green Power Energy has climbed the ranks in the 2024 Top Solar Contractors list, published in July by Solar Power World, reinforcing its status as a major player in America’s energy transformation.
The Top Solar Contractors List, curated annually by Solar Power World, highlights the achievements of solar installers across the United States. The rankings are based on installation volumes from the previous year, with companies categorized by services, markets, and states.
Green Power Energy’s 2024 rankings include:
- No. 172 National Solar Contractor
- No. 5 Connecticut Contractor
- No. 19 New Jersey Contractor
“Solar projects are growing in scale and complexity, from residential installations to large utility-scale ventures,” said Kelly Pickerel, editor-in-chief of Solar Power World. “The Top Solar Contractors List is a great indicator of how strong individual companies are in their local markets.”
The U.S. solar market’s resilience and growth are projected to continue, with companies on the Top Solar Contractors List, including Green Power Energy, poised to meet the increasing demand for solar installations.

Mike Sobiesiak, Vice President of Operations at Green Power Energy, featured in the latest Top Solar Contractors publication, commented on the rising demand for energy storage in the residential solar market. “Our customers are increasingly looking for backup power solutions due to extreme weather events and aging grid infrastructure,” he said. “They want reliable, quiet, and clean options for their homes. Besides providing backup power, homeowners are using stored energy to manage and offset rising energy costs, aligning with their sustainability and cost-effectiveness goals.”
Sobiesiak also highlighted regional incentives driving adoption: “In Connecticut, demand at Green Power Energy is surging, thanks to programs like the CT Green Bank’s Energy Storage Solutions Program, which offers up to $16,000 per project. Once customers learn about these benefits, they often wish they had adopted energy storage sooner.”
Green Power Energy’s move into the top 5 Contractors for Connecticut and its rise from 189th to 172nd nationally demonstrates significant growth and strengthens its position in both local and national markets.
