Description Project Solar began when Trevor Hiltbrand, our CEO, shopped around for solar and was shocked by the price and the pushy sales process. As he dove more into the solar industry, Trevor realized that massive savings could be passed on to customers if door-to-door salespeople were removed from the process and customers purchased solar online.
Matt Smith joined Trevor and they co-founded Project Solar in 2021. By cutting out the door-knocking salespeople and leveraging the power of internet marketing e-commerce, Project Solar creates a more efficient solution that drastically reduces cost while simultaneously improving the customer experience.
We raised a $23M Series A round of financing in 2022 and currently have a team of about 80 dedicated team members who are based in our Utah headquarters, or working remotely across the US and Canada.
