Founded in 2009 and a Certified B Corporation since 2018, SunBug has installed over a thousand solar systems across Massachusetts, from Great Barrington to Cape Cod. We design and build all types of solar systems, ranging in size from 1kW to over 1MW, including residential, commercial, carports, and ground-mounts.   As an employee-owned business, our team is invested in delivering the highest-quality solar solutions and with the best possible customer experience for each of our clients. Our emphasis on practical solar solutions has resonated across the Bay State, as evidenced by a host of satisfied residential, educational, institutional and small commercial customers. 

Our Values

• Responsiveness is the practical application of an organizations knowledge and experience in a respectful and timely fashion. SunBug has an extensive track record of delivering solar energy solutions to residences, commercial businesses, landowners, and non-profit organizations across the state. Weve done so by meeting the individual needs and requirements of each of our clients, rather than trying to impose off-the-shelf, cookie-cutter packages upon our clients in a generic fashion, as some solar installers are known to do. We are fastidious about our communications with our customers, both proactively and responsively.
• Resourcefulness is more than just the creative application of an organizations knowledge and available resources to solve a problem. Because our collaborative work environment is staffed by teammates with experience in a variety of fields, we are able to find creative solutions to seemingly insurmountable obstacles. SunBugs project teams creatively apply knowledge, expertise, and resources to solve our customers problems and deliver appropriate solar solutions.
• At the core of Reliability is the honesty and integrity required for successful long-term relationships with customers and partners. SunBug honors its commitments. We reliably say what we do, and then do what we say. Reliability also means that well be there over the long haul and not quietly disappear as soon as a SunBug solar system gets built, nor will we cut corners or skimp when we encounter an unanticipated installation challenge.
• SunBugs “high-touch,” consultative, and partnership-oriented approach to customers is central to why we are the only solar installer serving Massachusetts to have earned the coveted Angies List Super Service Award every year since 2012. We are proud of our extensive track record of “A” client ratings that we have received for the quality of our workmanship, the responsiveness of our communications, and the professionalism of each and every member of the SunBug team.

Before finalizing your solar design, its imperative that we:

• Understand the opportunities and limitations presented by your property;
• Analyze your current electric utility rate(s) and consumption patterns;
• Determine your eligibility for various governmental incentives;
• Review viable financing options;
• Investigate the utility power infrastructure that serves your property, taking careful note of the locations and specifications of major components such as meters, transformer, breaker panels, and switching gear.
