Our History
|
Our story begins in 1995 with our first system installation. Over the years we have installed hundreds of solar array systems. Today, we are striving to make the Finger Lakes region solar friendly and energy independent. Our future is looking bright as renewable energy is the way to power the future.

Our Start as a Solar Energy Provider QwikSolar was founded in 2010 in Albuquerque, New Mexico by Ryan Wallace. The roots of the company however started much earlier as Ryan installed his first system in 1995 at his family's cabin outside Grants, New Mexico. Ryan took the company on the road, helping electricians learn how to install solar power. After 130 systems installed in 16 states, Ryan settled the company in Geneva, New York. New York Operations QwikSolar moved to New York in 2012 and began installing systems in the Finger Lakes region. QwikSolar welcomed a new Mananging Partner, Brian Mosch, in 2014. Brian's engineering background brings a new perspective on the operations, developing a streamlined process to install a solar array system quickly while keeping it affordable. QwikSolar purchased a Pauselli post ramming machine in 2015 which allowed for installations in a timelier manner and reduced costs on the installation. We passed those savings onto our customers making Qwiksolar one of the lowest cost installers in the region. |
