B.C. companies unite to expand renewable energy options

Companies from Kelowna and Kamloops have joined forces to provide new solar energy options for residents.

Kelowna’s Krueger Electric and Riverside Energy of Kamloops are involved in the joint venture.

“The world is waking up to solar energy, a clean and renewable source of electricity and we are pleased to be part of expanding the availability of solar energy systems in the Okanagan,” said Peter Sherba, President of Krueger Electric.

Sherba added a growing number of customers are benefitting from solar energy as the costs of solar panels have dropped dramatically over the past 10 years.

“The payback to the customer starts the minute they flip the switch. Environmental degradation and increasing electricity costs are driving the demand for solar energy as our society is beginning to understand that renewable energy is attainable and more affordable than ever.”
