This year, Citadel Roofing & Solar secured the #1 spot as the top Solar + Storage installer in California's commercial and residential market and ranked #4 nationwide. Additionally, Citadel climbed to #8 among the largest residential solar installers in the nation, up from #9 last year, underscoring their commitment to exceptional customer service and quality.  “Solar projects in every market — residential to utility-scale — are getting bigger and oftentimes more complicated in scope, financing, and permitting. That’s why it’s all the more impressive when so many top installation companies have banner years,” said Kelly Pickerel, editor-in-chief of Solar Power World. “The Top Solar Contractors List is a great gauge for how strong individual companies are in their local markets.”  **A Legacy of Excellence**  With over 30 years of experience, Citadel Roofing & Solar specializes in customized solar systems, energy storage, and roofing solutions.

Over the past nine years, they have completed more than 75,000 solar, roofing, and battery projects, solidifying their position as California's leading turn-key provider of roofing, solar, and battery solutions for homebuilders, businesses, and homeowners.  **Milestones and Innovations**  The past year has been a landmark one for Citadel Roofing & Solar, marked by several other significant achievements:  - **Introducing Market Leading Products:** Citadel became one of the first installers of the Tesla Powerwall 3 in California and showcased their ability to quickly adapt to several new energy storage solutions such as FranklinWH and Enphase IQ battery systems.  - **SGIP Success:** Citadel's Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) department successfully secured over $6 million in solar battery rebates for homeowners, demonstrating their expertise in navigating complex rebate programs, and making sustainable energy solutions more accessible and affordable for California residents.  - **Record-Breaking 5-Star Reviews:** The Citadel Roofing & Solar team achieved a new milestone in customer satisfaction by setting a record for 5-star reviews, thanks to their seamless guidance throughout the installation process.  **A Customer-Centric Approach**  Known for using top-notch materials, and advanced technologies, and delivering outstanding customer service, Citadel is trusted by thousands of homeowners, homebuilders, multi-family residences, and businesses for their responsiveness and dependability.  "At Citadel Roofing & Solar, we truly value our customers.
