Built Well Solar Named in U.S. 2013 Top 250 Solar Contractors List

Built Well Solar was recently named one of the “Top 250 Solar Contractors” in the U.S. by Solar Power World magazine. The leading U.S. solar contractors are ranked according to various factors, including influence in the residential, commercial or utility solar market, total installed mega-watts, and location. Built Well Solar earned the ranking of 212.             All told, the Top 250 Solar Contractors have installed more than 7.8 gigawatts of solar capacity combined and employ 73,000 people nationwide. “Whether it’s a global enterprise or a family-run business, the 250 companies on our list are chasing after the bright future of solar,” Frank Andorka, editorial director at Solar Power World said “These contractors have worked hard to build an $11-billion industry, and this is the recognition they deserve.”     “We were surprised and honored to be included,” BWS president Dan Sabia said. “We suspect it’s because of our longevity here on Long Island, and the hard work and dedication we bring to every system design and installation we do.”      Solar Power World is considered the industry’s leading source for tech-nology, development and installation news, reaching an audience of 13,000 professionals involved in the solar energy industry.
