Imperial, Missouri (August 1, 2012)—Imperial-based electric contractor Mid-America Electric, Inc. is a newly announced “Authorized Integrator” of Syndicated Solar, Inc., a national solar energy provider for residential and commercial clients.

    Mid-America has served the residential and commercial electrical contracting market in the greater St. Louis area for 13 years.  Its reputation for quality work and sound business practices came to the attention of Syndicated Solar and led to a formal agreement between the two, demonstrating both companies dedication to bringing solar the St. Louis metropolitan area.

     Under the teamwork arrangement, solar system design, engineering, financing and product procurement will be handled by the national office of Syndicated Solar.  Mid-America will provide installation, operating and maintenance services using its highly qualified local staff.  At the same time, given its strength and reputation, Mid-America will play an important role in lead generation and customer development, for the local market.

    “From our standpoint, this is the best of both worlds,” said Larry Burmeister, president of Mid-America Electric.  “It allows Mid-America to leverage the technical expertise, buying power and project financing tools of a national solar electric company.  We put it all together for the customer using our installation savvy and experience, giving solar electric customers confidence that their contractor is a local and proven firm.”

    Syndicated Solar’s Mark Clifton, Director of Integrator Development, confirmed the value of the program for local customers.  “By aligning our broad corporate strengths with the experience and reputations of companies like Mid-America, it’s fair to say that while we operate nationally, we take pride in implementing locally, working with local businesses is key to our success.” 

     Clifton added that in a market as new and evolving as solar energy, confidence provided by the teamwork approach distinguishes the Syndicated Solar business model.  “In this case,” he added, “Mid-America is an integral part of the local business community, and that gives customers a welcome sense of trust and confidence in both the technology and Syndicated Solar.”
