Shine Up Solar, established in Roseville, CA in October 2010, specializes in cleaning solar panels for commercial, residential, and utility applications, as well as providing vegetation maintenance and pest prevention services. Founded by Jimmy Hodges, the company emerged from a need for improving the efficiency of solar energy production. With an impressive track record, Shine Up Solar has cleaned over 10 million solar panels and serviced more than 5,000 acres, helping clients enhance their energy output by up to 66%. Initially, the company focused on residential solar cleanings, but quickly pivoted towards larger commercial and utility-scale projects after recognizing their growing demands.
Operating primarily in the Southwestern United States, Shine Up Solar is committed to enhancing the overall solar production efficiency worldwide. They ensure that their cleaning technicians undergo comprehensive training to utilize correct and safe cleaning methods. Recognizing that dust, pollen, and other environmental factors can drastically reduce solar panel efficiency by 10-30% between cleanings, Shine Up Solar prioritizes regular maintenance to protect their clients' investments.
Today, the company is one of the largest solar panel cleaning and vegetation maintenance firms in the country, boasting an impressive clientele that includes military facilities, educational institutions, and commercial enterprises. With aspirations to expand internationally, starting with Australia, Shine Up Solar is dedicated to fostering eco-friendly practices while helping clients save money and energy.
