Why Solar?

Backyard of a house with solar panels.

Choose Solar and power your every day with clean, green energy.

Solar energy accounted for more than 64% of all new energy added to the worldwide electrical grid last year. From individuals adding solar energy to their homes and businesses to major solar farms providing energy for utilities to balance additional infrastructure requirements, solar energy is in extremely high demand — and that demand is increasing rapidly.

You may ask yourself, why has this technology become exceedingly popular now when solar cells have been used on rooftops since 1893? It isn’t entirely political; it isn’t because of mandates or requirements from governments. Solar energy is frequently installed because of increasing costs for primary energy production methods, and a reduction in costs and increased recyclability processes for modules (solar panels) and components.

As technology improves, modules are able to convert more of the sun’s rays into electricity (module efficiency), allowing for fewer materials to be used to generate more energy.

Is Solar Affordable?

With recent breakthroughs in module efficiency and stringing methods, solar has become so affordable that most self-generating homes or businesses can save double or even triple the amount of money they’ll spend on installing their system vs. renting electricity from the profit-hungry utility monopolies over the next 20 years.

Installing solar with EGT makes the process simple, transparent, and comforting for our clients, who know they will receive the highest quality products and installation practices as well as top of the line care and maintenance of their system for the life of their products.

What Our Customers Say About Us

EGT did a good job of discussing with me what to buy and what the system would and wouldn’t do. They came when they said they would and did what they said they’d do. Rob was patient and informative when I asked many questions. They have a good understanding of what Boise city and Idaho Power require and they seem to be well regarded by both organizations. That didn’t seem to be the case with some other suppliers I talked to. I’d use EGT again.

Rob Black

Rob started in the solar industry with EGT in 2015 and quickly became a huge asset to the team, leading the charge for revenue growth and providing education to our community; Rob was tasked with learning all facets of this industry and implementing core procedures into the daily operations of EGT Solar, including but not limited to internal processes from permitting, finance, design, and battery integration as well as sales management and project intake. Rob was promoted to Vice President in 2019 and was responsible for all internal operations while maintaining a robust sales portfolio. Shortly thereafter Rob married his wife, Adrienne in 2020. Adrienne has provided a solid foundation of support and understanding, allowing Rob to make the sacrifices an INC. 5000 company demands of its executive management and key revenue producers.

Rob’s financial background prior to joining the solar industry has been a remarkable benefit to our clients as he continually strives to keep the cost to install solar as inexpensive and fruitful as possible. EGT Solar would not be where we are today without Rob’s tremendous dedication and work ethic and we are pleased to have Rob take on the CEO position and lead this company and this industry in Southern Idaho towards the tremendous growth we are sure to see in years to come.

Bryan M. Lawley

Bryan founded EvenGreen Technology Inc. (DBA EGT Solar) in 2010 when alternative energy products had a very small market in southern Idaho; with a mere fifty-four (54) Solar installations in the state.  Bryan knew the latest changes in technology would allow for growth in demand. As his intuition became a reality and the market started quickly growing in 2013 Bryan made a commitment to his community and his staff that above all else, honesty and transparency in all facets is the mode of operation for this company. This foundational culture quickly lifted EGT to the top-rated solar company in Idaho and it is still in this position today.

Bryan, born and raised in southern Idaho, has a true commitment to the strength and longevity of the Idaho solar market. Bryan is proud to offer a truly local option for Idahoans and prioritizes giving back to local community charities each year. Because of how he chose to operate EGT Solar, Bryan was nominated Idaho CEO of the Year (2016) and again in 2018. He is truly committed to his employees and ensures that EGT is an unbeatable company to work for. EGT has 5-star ratings on all social media platforms and is BBB A+ accredited since 2015. EGT has been named a Top 500 Solar Contractor 2015-2022; one of the only single branch operations to carry this accolade and the only Idaho-based solar company. In the last two years, EGT Solar has been listed among the INC. 5000 fastest-growing companies nationwide and continues to grow to this day thanks to Bryan’s continued commitment to his employees and this community.
