North Peak Solar was founded by the Bowman brothers—Jeff, Jack, and Sam—who brought together their complementary skills to create a family-owned solar installer in Princeton, Minnesota. Jeff, a Master Electrician who started at Anoka Technical College and worked through apprenticeships in residential, commercial, and industrial settings, developed a specialty in solar installation for both its technical and aesthetic rewards. Jack came from a software engineering background at Anywhere Real Estate, a Fortune 500 company, where he led infrastructure and automation projects before applying those skills to solar operations and systems design. Sam rounds out the team with project coordination and customer management expertise. The company officially launched in 2024, though the business traces its operational roots to 2022. North Peak Solar operates from their Princeton headquarters and serves homeowners and businesses across Minnesota—from the Twin Cities metro including Minneapolis, St. Paul, Minnetonka, and Blaine, to rural communities throughout the state. As a solar installer in Princeton, the company focuses on transparent pricing and line-item proposals so Minnesota homeowners understand exactly what drives the total cost of their solar installation. Their licensed in-house crews handle residential and commercial solar panel installations, battery storage systems including Tesla Powerwall and Enphase IQ batteries, EV chargers, smart electrical panels from SPAN and EcoFlow, and backup generators. North Peak is ChargePoint certified and serves as the only ChargePoint EV certified installer in Minnesota, maintaining all ChargePoint charging stations statewide. The company designs commercial solar to NABCEP standards and offers off-grid solar solutions combining panels, battery storage, and generators for remote locations. They hold Minnesota electrical license EA807281 and building license BC807666, and their BuildZoom score ranks in the top 7% of Minnesota licensed contractors. Building permit records show the company has completed over 40 permitted projects. Reviews consistently praise their communication, with customers noting weekly project updates, clean job sites, and first-time inspection passes. North Peak manages the entire process in-house—engineering, permitting, utility interconnection, and installation—without subcontractor handoffs. They provide 5-year workmanship warranties alongside manufacturer warranties of up to 25-30 years for solar panels. The company works with tier-one equipment brands including Tesla, Generac, Enphase, SolarEdge, Q Cells, REC, Span, JinKo Solar, and SMA Solar. Their approach emphasizes helping Minnesota homeowners navigate state-specific incentives and net metering under Minnesota Statute 216B.164, which requires utilities to purchase excess solar power at retail rates. For commercial clients, they align federal tax credits, REAP grants, rebates, and depreciation strategies to improve project payback. North Peak’s mission centers on making home solar and energy independence accessible through personalized service, clear proposals, and systems engineered specifically for Minnesota’s climate and regulatory environment.
