Baker Electric continues to strengthen its position as a leader in renewable energy, earning two significant distinctions in Solar Power World’s 2026 industry recognition programs.
In the 2026 Top Solar Contractors rankings, Baker Electric was recognized as the:
- #8 Electrical Subcontractor in the United States
- #2 Electrical Subcontractor in California
Solar Power World’s annual Top Solar Contractors program ranks participating companies based on the amount of solar capacity they were involved in installing during the previous year. The 2026 list evaluates work completed during 2025 and categorizes companies by market, service type, and geography.
These rankings reflect more than installation volume. They reinforce Baker’s ability to execute complex renewable energy projects with the technical expertise, field resources, and disciplined project delivery required at scale.
Built for Complex Renewable Energy Projects
Baker supports commercial and utility-scale renewable energy projects through capabilities that span engineering, procurement, construction, electrical integration, battery energy storage, and commissioning.
For utility-scale projects, Baker delivers front-of-the-meter solar and battery energy storage infrastructure for utilities, independent power producers, EPC partners, and community choice aggregators across the Western United States. Baker’s renewable energy capabilities also extend to commercial solar, behind-the-meter battery storage, and microgrid solutions for businesses, schools, healthcare facilities, and industrial customers.
This breadth is strengthened by the One Baker approach, which brings specialized teams together under one coordinated organization. Electrical construction, renewables, civil, systems technology, controls, transportation, and other Baker capabilities can work together to support increasingly complex energy and infrastructure projects.
Recognized for Leadership in Renewable Energy
Adding to the 2026 recognition, Baker Electric has also been nominated for Solar Power World’s Leadership in Renewable Energy program in the Installation category. The program highlights organizations helping advance the renewable energy industry through their work, capabilities, and leadership.
Baker’s nomination highlights its work across both commercial and utility-scale renewable energy. Solar Power World’s nomination profile specifically recognizes Baker’s technical depth, multi-trade integration, EPC capabilities, battery energy storage expertise, and approach to complex electrical integration.
Continuing to Build What’s Next
The renewable energy market continues to evolve, but Baker’s approach remains consistent: bring experienced people, specialized expertise, and strong execution together to deliver reliable results for customers.
Being ranked among the nation’s leading solar electrical subcontractors and receiving a 2026 Leadership in Renewable Energy nomination are meaningful acknowledgments of the work Baker teams deliver every day.
They also represent something bigger.
One Baker. One standard of excellence. One team helping build the future of energy.
