Recognizing 500 U.S. solar contractors is a real honor each year for the entire Solar Power World staff. <\/p>\n<p>Over the years, we\u2019ve developed lasting relationships with solar contracting companies that we\u2019re always happy to revisit each summer. We learn about your successes and struggles from the past year, and we enjoy shedding light on the unique things you\u2019re doing in the pages of this special edition of Solar Power World. We love seeing you share your milestones, and we congratulate everyone\u2019s progress in this ambitious industry.<\/p>\n<p>We want to thank all the friendly faces on this list for helping Solar Power World\u2019s editorial team learn and understand this evolving solar sector. We appreciate that many of you are always available to chat for a few minutes and provide us with feedback on what issues matter most to U.S. solar installers. We hear it all the time\u2014at shows, in interviews\u2014solar contractors are competitive with one another, but everyone is most interested in moving the industry forward. If you have a question about anything, call your solar neighbor. We do it often!<\/p>\n<p>That generous and supportive nature will help us get through the predicted small dip in the U.S. solar installation forecast for 2017. We\u2019ll see most, if not all, of you back on this list next year when we\u2019ll be ready to share even more good news with our audience.<\/p>\n<p>So, let\u2019s celebrate another successful year! Thank you for being part of the extended Solar Power World family. You\u2019re driving this industry into the future and we commemorate your efforts in the 2017 Top Solar Contractors list.
