— Michael Cocozza, Owner at Trinity Custom Homes

Our partnership with leading builders like Trinity Custom Homes showcases the innovative and integrated solutions we deliver. We’re incredibly proud of our collaboration on the Bays Isles Modern home, where our solar design was a key factor in the home receiving the prestigious Best in Show for Sustainability award. We also powered an ambitious completely off-grid project in DeSoto County, Florida, creating one of the largest residential solar arrays with battery back-up in the country.

Living and raising our families here in Sarasota, we are deeply invested in our community. We believe in 100% accountability and stand behind every installation with unwavering integrity. This award is a milestone, but our legacy is in the lasting change we help create - one solar panel, one family, one business at a time. Thank you for helping us power Southwest Florida’s sustainable future, right now.
