SunnyMac Solar

In 2009, Matt MacFadden started hearing about advancements in the renewable energy industry and left law school to become a solar installer and start his own business in Delaware.What began as a one-person operation in Wilmington has grown into one of the Mid-Atlantic region’s most respected solar installers, now completing over 15,000 installations across Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. The company’s journey reflects the evolution of the solar industry itself. After a short stint as a turnkey solar solutions provider, SunnyMac morphed into an installation-only operation, working with big companies like SunRun, SunPower, and SolarCity and installing over 4,000 systems between 2011-2017. However, when many of these larger enterprises began to struggle or file for bankruptcy, SunnyMac made the decision to resume providing turnkey solutions.This pivot proved prescient—today, SunnyMac offers complete end-to-end service as an EPC solar provider with multiple in-house teams managing the engineering, procurement and constructionof every project. For homeowners in Wilmington and across the First State, SunnyMac brings deep local knowledge to every solar installation. The company is a NABCEP Certified installer and a SolarEdge Preferred Partner, and their reputation has earned them recognition far beyond Delaware’s borders. SunnyMac has been ranked among the Top 10 Residential Solar Contractors in the entire country by Solar Power World, a national recognition that reflects the company’s commitment to stability, sustainability, and trusted service.The company has also earned the 2025 Delaware BBB Torch Award for Ethics, demonstrating their commitment to doing business the right way. What sets this Wilmington-based solar installer apart is their comprehensive in-house approach. All site survey technicians, installers, and inspectors are SunnyMac employees, and back-office teams handle project management, design, permits, interconnection, tree removal, installation, and rebates.This means homeowners work with one dedicated team from initial consultation through system activation—no subcontractors, no handoffs, no confusion about who’s responsible. SunnyMac’s service portfolio extends beyond solar panels to include battery storage systems, EV charger installations, and a full-scale roofing division. The company has been recognized by Owens Corning with three prestigious awards for roofing excellence and holds Owens Corning Platinum Contractor status, one of the highest designations in the roofing industry. For Delaware and Pennsylvania homeowners planning solar installation, this means the option to pair a new roof with solar panels under one comprehensive warranty. The company’s commitment to the community runs deeper than installations. In 2025, SunnyMac designed and donated a 98-panel solar system to the Ronald McDonald House of Delaware in Wilmington, and has partnered with the National Forest Foundation to plant over 16,000 trees.Every solar installation and every tree removed for optimal panel placement results in another tree planted, reinforcing SunnyMac’s dedication to environmental stewardship. With home solar becoming increasingly important as electricity rates rise across the region, SunnyMac helps homeowners navigate Delaware’s strong solar incentives, including the Delaware Green Energy Program rebates and Solar Renewable Energy Certificates. Their teams handle all the paperwork, ensuring customers maximize available savings. For homeowners in New Castle County, Kent County, or Sussex County considering solar energy, SunnyMac offers the stability of a company that’s been serving the region since 2009, backed by a comprehensive 25-year warranty on solar products and installation.
