Sunrun, founded in 2007, is America's leading residential solar and battery storage company. The firm offers solar panel systems and home battery storage to homeowners, typically with little to no money down; customers pay for the clean energy the systems produce rather than the equipment itself. The company's technical work spans residential solar energy, battery storage, decentralized energy systems, and grid integration.
The company operates across America and has built a significant scale, serving nearly 800,000 customers and deploying 5.7 gigawatts of clean energy capacity. In 2020, Sunrun acquired Vivint Solar for $3.2 billion, further consolidating its position in the residential market. Sunrun is vertically integrated, controlling the customer experience from design and installation through ongoing energy service.
Sunrun's work is driven by a vision of a decentralized energy future. Roles across the company support the deployment and maintenance of residential solar and battery systems, as well as the grid integration that underpins distributed energy resources.
