“Sunrun is rapidly expanding its lead as America’s clean energy company. We are seeing a tremendous acceleration in storage attachment rates on new sales, in California and across the country, which provides increased customer value and superior margins for Sunrun, while building a foundation of controllable generation assets that enables a clean energy future for all,” said Mary Powell, Sunrun’s Chief Executive Officer. 

“Recent sales performance in California is encouraging and sales growth outside of California remains robust, allowing us to reiterate our guidance for 10% to 15% growth in new installations this year, which we believe represents strong market share gains.

Sincerely,

Ian Cooper
