"Kyocera aims to bring our 37 years of global experience to work, increasing the number of long-term, productive solar installations in the U.S.," said Steve Hill, president, Kyocera Solar Inc.

"With input from installers, we've developed this program to help them get started with confidence. In addition to great prices, training and exclusive promotions, Diamond Partners have access to financing programs and our experienced, reliable team to help ensure seamless installations - whether it's for a smaller, residential development to enormous stadiums or universities."

Kyocera's Diamond Partner Program is ideal for new solar installers, such as residential and commercial developers, high-end home remodelers and general contractors who are interested in diversifying their product offerings, or any installers who need guidance growing their solar businesses.

Kyocera Diamond Partners have exclusive and protected sales territories, sales and technical training and targeted lead-generation programs provided by Kyocera Solar.

All program members receive access to Kyocera's interactive design and proposal tools that make quoting new projects simple and efficient.

Kyocera partners with some of the largest and most dependable resources in the industry to provide an unmatched portfolio of solar solutions and services for Diamond Partners.

Online and hands-on certified technical training is provided by National Solar Trainers while ModSolar provides an online interactive design and proposal tool available to Diamond Partners.

In addition to creating world-class solar modules, Kyocera has partnered with other best-in-class manufacturers Unirac, SMA and Enphase to provide total package solutions as well as a la carte offerings.

These products are available from warehouse locations in California, Arizona and New Jersey to reduce shipping costs and lead time to the job site.

"Both industry veterans and new entrants to solar will see benefits from the Kyocera Diamond Partner Program," Hill continued.

"Kyocera has been a solar industry pioneer for 37 years and knows how to succeed in this market. We're offering the tools and experience necessary to help our partners expand their business in this sector."
