Hi Paul,

Sky’s the limit, this is sales! Most positions offer commission, some establish companies offer a base salary as well. I would guess the average salary for a solar panel salesperson is about $60,000.

I m moving to S.W. Florida in the near future and want to find a residential community already set up for solar usage.
I want to live energy free and hopefully sell
back some of my earned energy, get fed, credits, and state credits/rebates and anything else I can get to do my part to have
an energy efficient home. Any comments/suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I m even interestsed in investing in a solar power business.

David, if you could be a little more specific about what you’re looking to do, it’d be helpful.

I have enjoyed the automotive business for 30 years but I understand that the world is moving forward and I want to be apart of that progression.

To get forward in life, one must take risks. In this current moment, I am making plans to enter community college to pursue an associates in renewable energy. The focus is on solar.

I’m afraid I won’t be able to get a job after I finish school.. I’m desperately looking everywhere for companies that are seeking “solar technicians” but can’t seem to find zilch in my state (* New Mexico *).

I really don’t want to have to be forced to become an electrician to get the job of my dreams, however, if necessary… it may be my only venue.

To any others who are reading my comment, don’t get discouraged. Obama is pushing a “green” movement here in the U.S, or, at least he was a couple years ago – alternative energy is supposed to have received alot of funding from govt sectors.

I just moved to the Phoenix, AZ area and want to become involved in solar panel systems sales. I have over 25 years of experience as a construction superintendent and independent contractor. My people skills are excellent. I carry professional and general liability insurance policies. My resume and references are available upon request.
