Even as U.S. solar faced a tumultuous year, installer confidence “improved significantly” over 2016, according to a survey conducted by EnergySage and the installer certification organization the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners.
“From speaking with our installers across the country, we believe there are several reasons for continued optimism,” said Vikram Aggarwal, EnergySage’s CEO and founder, in a statement. “Given that prices remain competitive and the solar tariff is expected to have only a limited short-term impact, solar installers have much to look forward to in 2018 and beyond.”
