Old Country Roofing Dives Further Into Solar

Old Country Roofing Dives Further Into Solar

Vacaville-based Old Country Roofing formed a new solar division that will focus on providing homeowners and home builders a one-stop solar shop.

OCR Solar Solutions will provide design, installation, warranty and integrated customer service for solar roofs. The company said it expects to become the largest installer of residential solar energy systems in California.

Aaron Nitzkin, vice president of solar operations, will head the new division, whose launch is part of Old Country Roofing's expansion into a new and larger facility. Earlier this month the roofing company announced deals with Vancouver-based Xantrex Technology Inc. and San Jose-based Fat Spaniel Technologies to offer comprehensive solar energy conversions and monitoring to Old Country's customers.

The 40-year-old Vacaville-based company serves more than 100 home builders throughout Central and Northern California, and recently partnered with BP Solar, a unit of the British oil giant BP (NYSE: BP) to offer BP Solar's roof-tile solar modules.
