In March of 2009 I setup the LLC for Skywire Electrical Systems, I was working at Beaman Electric at the time. I had an opportunity presented to me for a first job down in Louisiana... I took the opportunity and ran with it. At that time, I cashed out my IRA and used that to survive on ramen noodles and popcorn while embracing the challenges of starting and running a business. I can easily say that for the first few years my life consisted of no weekends and I averaged 80 hours per week minimum. Wearing all of the “hats” was difficult and eventually I was able to pass a few hats to very important key people that are extremely good at what they do. That was a big leap at that time, all I could think was hours that weren't on a job meant hours that were not billable which meant "where is this money coming from to pay them... eeek" But everything has always worked itself out even when I wasn't sure how close we would come to making payroll on a few various occasions.

In the first year I knew that I needed a niche and I was always interested in solar, and at the time, solar was a slowly emerging market with very little, to no prospects. I decided to max out my credit card and fly to California to get the only solar training/certification I knew of at that time. Coming back to Missouri I just kept my ear to the ground for any and all potential solar jobs that might be available. I came across a gentlemen in the green building sector that introduced me to a lovely couple that were building a revolutionary off-grid home. I was able to bid on the home electrical portion and wire that home. At the same time I designed and installed the off grid solar solution pro-bono so that I could have my first portfolio job.

If you know anything about solar you know that an off grid system is the most complicated that you will deal with compared to a grid tie system or grid tie with battery backup. Everything from that point forward was smooth sailing with having started on the most complex of solar systems. Over the years we were able to build up electrical clientele with a few very big custom home builders, while at the same time word of mouth led to a solar job here and there. With enough solar systems under my belt, and enough class room time I was then able to start the long process of getting NABCEP certified which is the ONLY national standard for solar installation companies.

How Solar Energy Systems Work

With the plentiful sunshine in the Ozarks, most homeowners can easily tap into this abundant energy source with solar power systems. All that is needed is either a good location on the ground for a ground mount solar system or adequate roof space for residential solar panel systems in a generally south-facing orientation. Although direct southern exposure is optimal for residential solar, southwest or southeast are almost as good. Even east or west facing residential solar systems can capture enough sunlight for electricity generation and sound investment returns.

Shading is a critical factor to consider when positioning your solar energy system. Trees, and even the shadow of a utility pole can diminish the output of residential solar panels. Don't forget that we are the Ground Mount Experts, lets put it on the ground first in a more optimal location. Trimming or cutting down trees that cast even a brief shadow will vastly improve the output of residential solar energy systems. Let us determine whether your property is appropriate for residential solar power.

Solar Installation Process

• There are several steps to take before the actual solar panel installation. The first thing we do is analyze your past year’s energy usage. We use your previous 12 months of electricity bills to determine your total kilowatt-hours, allowing us to account for seasonal variations. Then, we implement our unique efficiency-first approach that has the potential to save you thousands of dollars on your solar energy system. We identify cost effective ways to lower your energy usage and suggest improvements that will be energy saving. This allows us to build the solar power installation that is just right for you, maximizing your savings in energy and money.
• Want to maximize your investment in a solar system? An energy audit can provide a detailed analysis of where your home is wasting energy. This allows you to make home improvements that can increase your solar investment for minimal cost
• Once the materials arrive on site, our team of solar panel installation experts is ready to install your solar energy system. The timeline to complete installation depends upon the size and complexity of your system, but it can take as few as three days. Once this phase of the work is complete, at least two inspections are required. The first is by your local Department of Building and Safety if applicable in your area. The second is completed by your utility company. Upon completion of the utility inspection and receipt of your new meter, your system can be turned on to generate electricity. Skywire Solar submits all final documentation.
• Once your system is installed, we provide regular monitoring and system checks to make sure your system is performing at its highest level. As we analyze the data from your systems we will make any necessary tweaks to make sure your system is running at peak performance. You will get decades of reliable, clean electricity production from your solar panel installation. The addition of environmentally friendly solar power to your home or business is just one step in sustainable living.
