Solar Integrators

What Solar Integrators does

Solar Integrators is a privately held, founder-led solar photovoltaic (PV) installation company headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, founded in 2008. The firm designs, engineers, and installs commercial-scale solar arrays for agricultural, commercial, and industrial customers, providing end-to-end services including detailed site analysis, energy production estimates, investment proposals, structure analysis, financing coordination, project engineering, and post-installation monthly monitoring. The company uses Tier 1 components — Heliene, LONGi, and TrinaSolar modules, SMA, Fronius, and Yaskawa Solectria inverters, and Power Peak and RBI Solar mounting systems — and contracts with local electrical and mechanical subcontractors for installation labor, with an explicit preference for American-manufactured equipment.

The business operates a B2B, project-based revenue model with two streams: one-time installation revenue from designing and engineering custom solar arrays (equipment procurement, installation, and interconnection with the local electric utility) and a smaller recurring subscription revenue from monthly monitoring of installed systems. Sales are generated through phone outreach (1-319-631-2006 and 1-855-476-1695) and website quote requests, with no disclosed digital marketing or formal reseller channel. The company is bootstrapped, with no external funding, parent company, subsidiaries, patents, certifications, or social media presence recorded; the leadership team is two people — principal Tim Dwight (13 years in solar, 10 years as president of the Iowa Solar Trade Association) and Karen Pollock (15 years in solar finance and accounting). The company serves only the Iowa market within the United States, and no revenue, headcount, or pipeline figures are publicly disclosed.
