Blue Ridge SunP.O. Box 583, Max Meadows, Virginia, United States

​Founded in 2008 and located near the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia, Blue Ridge Sun is a licensed and insured Class A contractor for alternative energy products, offering design and installation services for solar energy systems in Virginia and the Carolinas.

The founder of Blue Ridge Sun, Walter Benda, is certified as a PV Installation Professional by the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP), one of very few installers to hold this certification in the western region of Virginia.

Blue Ridge Sun uses an installation team that is experienced and licensed in the electrical, building, and plumbing trades. Its portfolio of alternative energy projects includes grid-tie, off-grid, and off-grid with battery back-up systems, for ground mounted as well as rooftop mounted systems.

There has never been a better time than now to invest in alternative energy. Not only is it good for the health of our environment and everything that lives in it, but because of declining costs and improved efficiencies, as well as tax credits and other favorable programs that are available, such as net metering, it can be a very wise long-term financial investment. In addition, programs are available for financing residential solar projects for qualified home owners.
