Why Independent Power Systems?
Solar Innovators and Pioneers
Since 1996, our team of seasoned solar professionals has been designing
and installing economical, aesthetically pleasing, and self-sustaining
renewable energy systems for residential and commercial customers in Colorado
and Montana. We pride ourselves on offering the premium solutions you
need to keep the lights on – anywhere and anytime. At the very heart
of all our power systems is excellence in electrical design and installation.
Our installations are top quality and each come with their own industry-leading
warranty as proof of our confidence in our services and products. Our
designs and installations are done by in-house engineers, licensed electricians,
and certified installers.
SunPower Elite Dealers consistently achieve high levels of customer satisfaction and exceed stringent performance standards in design, quality, and service.
We are deeply committed to helping our local and broader communities achieve energy independence by freeing us from the expense and environmental impact of fossil fuels. In addition to environmental groups, many of our employees are extremely active in their communities through various volunteer and activism groups as well.
Independent Power Systems was founded in 1996 by Tony Boniface, who had the vision to create a company that provided state-of-the-art renewable energy systems with exceptional design, installation, service, and support. Tony’s fascination with renewable energy began in 1988 when he was camping on Mount Jefferson and found a solar panel pumping water. The idea of a clean electricity source, powered by the sun, working efficiently without any visible source of conventional power inspired Tony to study alternative energy. Tony worked for a company specializing in solar PV and hybrid electric systems and completed his professional engineering license. As far as solar companies go, we are pioneers in this space with our long history of learning before grid-tied solar was even economically feasible.
Independent Power Systems has a highly trained professional workforce that has completed thousands of residential and commercial solar, energy storage, wind, and hybrid systems all over the world. We have worked with homeowners, nonprofits, small businesses, cities, multinational corporations, and the military to provide cost-saving and sustainable energy solutions.
