Black Platinum Solar & Electric: Phoenix's Trusted Energy Experts

Black Platinum Solar & Electric operates as a cornerstone electrical and solar contractor for the greater Phoenix metropolitan area. For nearly two decades, this family-owned enterprise has provided comprehensive energy solutions from its Glendale headquarters. The business maintains active membership with local professional associations and focuses primarily on residential modernization and efficiency upgrades for homes across Maricopa and Pinal counties.

Key Electrical & Solar Services for Phoenix Homes

The company's services are tailored to the specific demands of Arizona's climate and housing stock.

Home Electrification & Panel Upgrades

Older Phoenix-area homes, common in neighborhoods like Arcadia and the Coronado Historic District, often have outdated electrical panels insufficient for modern loads like pool pumps and air conditioning. Black Platinum specializes in panel upgrades and installations to handle the intense summer demand.

Electric Vehicle Charging Station Installation

With Arizona's high EV adoption rates, the company installs dedicated charging stations, ensuring homes in communities like Ahwatukee Foothills and North Scottsdale are prepared for the future.

Backup Generator Installation

Monsoon season storms can cause power outages. The company installs home standby generators, a critical service for residents in areas like Cave Creek and Fountain Hills.

Complete Solar Energy Systems

Given Phoenix's 300+ days of annual sunshine, solar panel installation is a primary service. The team designs systems that maximize energy production on the varied roof types found in the Valley, from tile roofs in Mesa to flat roofs in Central Phoenix.
