About Us
Edward Rivers
Principal/ President
Gulf Coast Renewable Energy Solutions LLC
With over 13 years of experience in Hospitality maintenance and 8 years specializing in solar energy, I founded Gulf Coast Renewable Energy Solutions LLC with one mission: to provide reliable, high-quality, and affordable renewable energy solutions to families and businesses across the Gulf Coast.
My background started in large-scale property and facility maintenance, where I developed a deep understanding of electrical systems, efficiency, and long-term equipment care. Transitioning into solar energy was a natural step—and a passion. Since then, I’ve led hundreds of residential and commercial solar installations, earning industry-leading certifications and partnerships along the way.
I’m NABCEP Certified and hold the ETA PV Installer Certification, both of which reflect my commitment to safety, quality, and staying current with the latest solar technologies. I’m also a licensed electrical contractor in Texas with additional certifications in battery storage systems and smart energy solutions.
Through partnerships with Tesla, Briggs & Stratton, and Generac, I help my clients get the best in energy storage, backup systems, and solar performance. I’ve also developed two custom products:
• Solar Shine™, a professional-grade panel cleaner
• Grid Guard™, a squirrel and critter protection system designed to prevent costly damage
Whether you’re new to solar or need expert maintenance, I take pride in delivering service that’s honest, certified, and built to last. When you work with Gulf Coast Renewable Energy Solutions, you’re getting more than panels — you’re getting a partner who understands energy from the ground up.
