Why solar?

Since 1977, Hue & Cry has stayed at the forefront of their industry by delivering innovative technologies and trusted services that protect homes and businesses in their community. That same commitment to innovation guided their decision to invest in solar power for their own operations.

Their goals were clear: reduce annual energy costs while making a positive impact on their community and the environment. Guided by Solectric Corp, a trusted installer with over 3,600 completed solar installations and 18 years of experience, Hue & Cry made the switch to solar. Today, they save an estimated $6,000 annually—savings that will continue to add up over time.

Why Enphase?

Solectric Corp is known for quality and customer service. Their approach includes careful selection of products and manufacturing partners to ensure every installation meets high standards. For this project, they relied on Enphase, a trusted name in solar technology.

The Enphase IQ8P-3P commercial microinverter offered the Hue & Cry project greater design flexibility, ease of installation, module-level monitoring, and easy scalability for future expansion. Antonio Silva of Solectric emphasizes the benefits: “Safety is important to us, and these devices feature rapid shutdown for added security and comply with advanced safety standards.”
