Lumos was born in Boulder, Colorado when a group of solar installers realized there had to be better ways to integrate solar energy into everyday life without waiting around for tomorrow’s technologies. We set out to make the equipment we wanted to install: products that are faster and easier to install, products that were stronger for industrial applications, products with less embodied energy, products with a style that gives solar energy a contemporary appeal, and products that provide a futuristic solar solution for today’s budgets. As a result, Lumos owns the value innovation position in the solar energy marketplace.  Looking for a new solar panel option? We call our approach Maximum Value Point Tracking. MVPT means that when all factors are considered, including energy production, price, aesthetics, and ease of installation, Lumos products are the best value available.

For example, our flagship product for 2010, the LSX Module System is poised to dominate design awards in 2011 and demonstrates perfectly why Lumos is the value innovation leader in the solar marketplace. The revolutionary, frameless, integrated wiring and racking module system offers these advantages:

• LSX replaces a standard solar panel and offers competitive energy production in every application including utility, commercial and residential applications.
• LSX features a sleek, contemporary design in three different color options to give clean energy buyers more choice in the aesthetics of an installation.
• LSX reduces installation time and cost with a click and go wiring and racking system.

This means the LSX Module System has superior appearance, industrial performance, plug-and-play installation efficiency, less embodied energy, and a competitive price tag. Look around; there is no better value in a solar panel. That’s the Lumos way.

The rest of the Lumos line is designed with the same MVPT philosophy and includes:

• Solar electric products - Our high-quality, cost effective solar panel selections provide reliable solar energy at an affordable price.
• Engineering support - We have professionally certified and trained engineers on staff to provide design consultancy and answer technical questions quickly and accurately.
• Lumos Solar's corporate responsibility mission is shaped by a basic company philosophy, which is to "do good by doing well".
