What does high performance look like in solar? Sun Light &amp; Power has been working out that answer since 1976, evolving from solar thermal to PV to storage, with each shift driven by a commitment to complete, well-designed energy solutions.  
  
In this episode of The High Performance Edge, Peter Troast sits down with Chris Mink, Sales &amp; Marketing Manager at Sun Light &amp; Power, to talk about what it takes to build a solar company designed to last. With California's latest changes to net metering and the federal solar tax credit gone, that resilience is being tested. They discuss the financing innovations keeping residential solar moving, including SLP's recent addition of PPAs, how the residential customer mindset is evolving, and what being an ESOP means to a business when conditions get tough.
