Rising Sun Solar Electric  is a Maui-based, locally-owned solar electric company dedicated to  increasing the health of our environment by bringing clean,  reliable, and affordable renewable energy technology to homes and  businesses in our community.

Specializing in professional design, sales, and installation of solar electric photovoltaic systems (PV) and solar hot water systems, Rising Sun has pioneered solar net-metered systems in Hawaii.

Since 1986, Rising Sun Electric has operated as licensed electrical contractor (C-26822, formerly C-13046) in the State of Hawaii. In 2003, RSSE expanded their business to include solar electric, and have since installed more than 50 PV systems island-wide. We have installed for Hawaii Electric Light Company (HELCO) and Maui Electric Company (MECO) for their Sun Power for Schools program, and in 2004, we were chosen by HELCO and Hawaii to install a 495-module system at the Natural Energy Lab in Kona.

Sharp, the world's #1 producer of solar panels, backs their products with a 25-year warranty, while SMA, the leading manufacturer of solar electric inverters, provides a 10-year warranty on their products. As a company, we work personally with our clients, providing the highest standards of customer satisfaction by offering free system estimates, design consultation, financial advice, and lifetime

Committed to Energy Independence

At RSSE, we are dedicated to working with the sustainable resources available to us today so that we may achieve energy independence in the future. We're also committed to raising public awareness about renewable energy in our community. To that end, Rising Sun Solar
founded a nonprofit coalition of businesses and homeowners promoting solar electricity (www.hawaiipvcoalition.org). We want to continue to provide the community of Hawaii with an easy way to purchase clean, affordable electricity that reduces our emissions output, and
eliminates our dependency on foreign oil. We hope to leave a better world for our children and grandchildren and to strengthen the economy through energy independence.
