About Us

Powering the Future,
Built on a Legacy of Excellence.

With a foundation rooted in integrity, innovation, and family values, we deliver solar solutions that protect your finances, reduce your reliance on the grid, and help you achieve true energy independence.

Our Story

Every great story has a spark—ours ignited over 54 years ago with a bold idea and an unstoppable drive. Option One Solar was born from a legacy of innovation, led by our founder, Jerry Thomas, whose career spans NASA’s Apollo program and groundbreaking advancements in electrical safety. His passion for pushing boundaries and solving big problems is the DNA of everything we do.

Fast forward to today: we’re a team of thinkers, doers, and trailblazers who bring cutting-edge solar solutions to life. Family-owned and three generations strong, we’re not just installing panels—we’re building a brighter, more sustainable future for our customers, our community, and our planet. Whether it’s a rooftop system for your home or a custom design for a massive project, we dive headfirst into every challenge with grit, creativity, and a whole lot of heart.

When you join the Option One Solar family, you’re not just another customer—you’re part of a movement to take control of energy and redefine what’s possible.

Our Mission

We’re on a mission to do more than install solar panels—we’re here to transform the way you power your life. Our goal is simple: to help you break free from skyrocketing utility bills, protect your family from outages, and give you total control over your energy future.

We believe no two homes or businesses are the same, and that’s why cookie-cutter solutions just don’t cut it for us. Every system we design is tailored to fit your needs, your space, and your goals. With us, it’s all about saving you money, building your energy independence, and giving you the confidence to power through anything.

Because at the end of the day, we’re not just solving energy problems—we’re putting the power where it belongs: in your hands.

Our Team

The soul of Option One Solar is our team—a passionate crew of go-getters who thrive on solving problems and smashing expectations. We don’t just think outside the box; we reimagine it entirely to craft tailored solar solutions that fit your life perfectly. With a unique mix of creativity, grit, and deep expertise, we’re here to make your journey to energy independence smooth, exciting, and completely hassle-free.

At Option One Solar, no challenge is too big, no detail too small. Every project gets the full force of our energy, innovation, and drive because that's how we deliver results that truly shine.
