To Vivint Solar Customers: Focused on Achieving Our Mission
Dear Valued Vivint Solar Customers,
Im excited to share with you that Vivint Solar has reached an agreement to be acquired by Sunrun, a leading provider of residential solar, battery
storage, and energy services in the United States, and I wanted to tell you our customers what this means.
The two companies will continue
to operate as separate entities until the deal closes. During that time, the companies will continue business-as-usual.
This is a transformational opportunity, which will help us accelerate the realization of our mission of bringing clean power solutions to every home.
Together, the combined company will create and deliver better, more affordable products and services and make home solar and batteries more accessible to households across the country.
As a current Vivint Solar customer, your home is playing an important part in creating a better energy system where power is generated on-site and shared with neighbors, reducing the need for far-away, polluting power plants and expensive utility lines. You will continue to be our top-priority and nothing will change regarding your service or care due to this exciting development. Until the transaction closes, both Vivint Solar and Sunrun will continue to operate as separate companies.
Thank you for choosing Vivint Solar as your clean energy provider and for playing such an important role in building a more sustainable energy system.
David Bywater, CEO of Vivint Solar
