Puget Sound Solar

Description

Pamela Burton. Jeremy started Puget Sound Solar in 2001 with 30 years of construction contracting experience, and a desire to turn Seattle on to solar energy. What began as a vague notion has gelled into a firm commitment to establish solar energy as a viable and permanent consumer choice. Jeremy believes that our customers often follow a path similar to the one he took, starting out with solar daydreaming, then progressing to education on the subject, and eventually leading to action. Along the way, Jeremy has become a NABCEP Certified Solar Thermal and Solar PV Installer, a Washington State certified Electrical Administrator, and a popular lecturer and teacher. What was initially a solo act is now part of a team effort, but his job description still includes providing vision and guidance to the company. Pamela Burton was Director of the Pacifica Radio Archives before moving to Seattle in 1997, and remained in the non-profit world as the first Executive Director of Seattle Tilth until mid-2004. As the volume of phone calls to Puget Sound Solar increased, she pitched in to help and became the ‘front office ’, taking messages at first, and learning solar fundamentals. Now she spends her day talking to prospective and current customers, utility people, suppliers, contractors, architects, and the like, dispensing information and advice, in addition to handling scheduling and customer paperwork and overseeing the treasury (whew). She served as President of Solar Washington for more than four years, developing the annual Solar Tour, helping to educate the public, and working to effect public policy. Now in its tenth year, the company continues to be a leader in the region, keeping a staff of 12 busy full-time. The coming months promise more growth, thanks to our fantastic customers and crew!
