Evergreen Solar, SunPower Among Solar Stars - Kaufman

I think that solar is a very regional industry. Here in the San Francisco area there seems to be a new solar installation company popping up every day. While Akeena is doing quite well, so is Marin Solar (who did our installation) and Solar City. Sunpower is well respected because it has the most efficient panels; the final assembly and shipping are local. Marin Solar only uses Sunpower and they do an awful lot of public and commercial installations. Sunpower also does solar-powered utility power plants; they recently completed power plants in Spain and South Korea. I'm holding on to my stock. Claire
