Panasonic names first class of residential solar installers in its new Elite tier

Panasonic created an Elite tier for its ever-expanding Residential Solar Installer Program as a carrot for only the highest-performing Panasonic installers, those providing superior customer service and have established successful and longstanding partnerships with Panasonic (i.e. crushing Panasonic sales). Twenty-two standout installers from across the country have been promoted to Elite status, granting them access to exclusive perks.

“The solar industry continues to heat up across the country, and as a result will only become more crowded,” said Mukesh Sethi, Director, Solar and Energy Storage, Panasonic Life Solutions Company of America. “We are proud to equip Elite installers with benefits and tools they need to grow their businesses in increasingly competitive markets.”
