Exactly one month after initially announcing its acquisition of Sunpro Solar, ADT has now completed the acquisition. With the acquisition finished, the company is formally debuting ADT Solar, which will provide customers with rooftop solar and energy storage solutions to increase their energy independence and help them save money on their energy expenses.
Founded in 2008, Sunpro is a leading provider of rooftop solar systems in the United States. Sunpro markets, designs, sells, installs and maintains solar power systems on residential and commercial properties through its 3,600-person, full-time workforce of solar energy professionals with 56 locations in 22 states. Now, ADT planning on expanding the brand into more markets across the United States soon.
“The closing of this transaction and the introduction of ADT Solar unlocks our ability to respond to customer desire for sustainable energy solutions they can use independently or combine with ADT’s smart security systems for a safer, smarter, and more sustainable home or business,” says Jim DeVries, ADT president and CEO. “We are especially pleased to have completed the transaction quickly, which allows us to swiftly begin to realize the great benefits of this combination for our customers, employees, and shareholders.”
“We have nearly 4 million ADT customers in our solar service area, and in a recent survey1, more than a quarter of ADT customers surveyed expressed interest in purchasing rooftop solar panels for their homes,” DeVries said. “This sizeable customer segment is an early opportunity for us to grow ADT Solar organically while also expanding to new customer markets for ADT Solar. I want to thank the dedicated teams at Sunpro and ADT for their incredible efforts in helping us reach this exciting milestone.”
As previously announced, Sunpro Solar founder Marc Jones and the Sunpro management team will now lead ADT Solar, with Jones serving as ADT executive vice president, Solar.
