The company states that Harris brings to the company many years of international business experience in the solar electric industry along with successful entrepreneurial and corporate management experience in emerging technology markets.
"I have had the opportunity to be involved with many aspects of the solar business in the U.S. and around the world. To be successful in our industry you need the ability to rapidly respond to changing international market requirements, government programs and regulations," Harris said. "PV Powered’s scalable product platform, talented team and flexible manufacturing capabilities uniquely position us for success and will allow us to help move the U.S. solar industry forward. Our residential and commercial inverters will set a new standard for reliability and performance."
