Brooklyn, NY, July 23, 2024 – Brooklyn SolarWorks, Brooklyn’s leading rooftop solar developer and installer, known for their innovative Brooklyn Solar Canopy racking system, announced today it has been named one of Solar Power World’s Top Solar Contractors for the second consecutive year. This recognition solidifies the company’s position as a leader in the solar industry and underscores its commitment to providing specialized solar solutions for New York City rooftops.
Brooklyn SolarWorks has experienced rapid growth since its founding, fueled by its deep understanding of the energy market in New York City and their unique solar canopy designed for urban rooftops where codes and space restrictions make traditional racking systems unfeasible. The company has helped thousands of homeowners make the switch to solar, helping them save on energy expenses while reducing their carbon footprint.
“We are honored to once again be recognized as a top solar contractor by Solar Power World,” said T.R. Ludwig, CEO of Brooklyn SolarWorks. “This award is a testament to our team’s dedication to delivering innovative solutions like the Brooklyn Canopy that help homeowners overcome NYC’s rooftop challenges and maximize their solar potential.”
Solar Power World, the leading solar publication covering technology, development, and installation, publishes the Top Solar Contractors List annually. The list includes hundreds of solar contractors and developers in the United States, categorized by state/territory, service, and market.
“Solar projects in every market — residential to utility-scale — are getting bigger and oftentimes more complicated in scope, financing and permitting. That’s why it’s all the more impressive when so many top installation companies have banner years,” said Kelly Pickerel, editor in chief of Solar Power World. “The Top Solar Contractors List is a great gauge for how strong individual companies are in their local markets.”
