Our Story
Our President and Founder Tyler Uebelhoer knew the solar energy industry was for him from the start.
Working in the Western New York construction industry and as an electrician for a dozen years as well as growing up in Wyoming County surrounded by entrepreneurs he knew building a clean energy company that created greater value for customers and more jobs for Buffalonians like him was what he was born to do.
You can tell hes made for this business because hes rarely behind his desk. Hes onsite at customers properties personally doing site assessments providing thoughtful consultations elbow deep in the installs or out in the community building partnerships with other leaders in this industry.
Thats how Tylers wife and co-owner Alicia Uebelhoer felt about Tylers vision. Alicia with her classically Canadian people skills of friendliness and graciousness has been the face and heart of Buffalo Solars marketing and customer service from the start.
Happily investing their life savings into this venture Tyler and Alicia turned their South Buffalo living room into the first Buffalo Solar office and hired their first employee who is still with the company.
Today the operations have grown substantially beyond their home and they now enjoy expansive modern facilities.
