Gaia Energy Systems

Hardy Kuenzl immigrated from Germany in 1981. After living off grid for many years, designing and installing many PV systems, and obtaining his electrical contractors license, he founded Gaia Energy Systems in 1994. When Hardy and Kate Collins married, Kate added her expertise in business management and finance to the business, becoming a partner in 2003. As a team they have built Gaia Energy Systems into the full service solar company that it is today, serving all of northern California, with expertise in all aspects of on-grid and off-grid residential and commercial solar design and installation.

As an experienced commercial solar solutions company Gaia Energy Systems provides integrated services to design, finance, install, and maintain solar power projects for large and small businesses, schools, offices, wineries, commercial storefronts, municipalities, non-profits, health providers, and more. Commercial solar installations often require specialized design considerations. It is essential to work with a team that is well versed in a range of solutions, such as ground mounts, pole mounts, trackers, micro inverters, and real time monitoring.

Effectively designing for solar will increase the potential for energy generation and decrease the installation costs, yet many architects miss significant opportunities to optimize for solar, or design for solar incorrectly. Let us help you to help your clients. We are always happy to assist architects in optimizing for solar. Give us a call today, and we'll be happy to have one of our experienced designers assist you in optimizing for solar.

At Gaia we are experts in all types of residential solar installation. From urban center to remote off-grid, we have the experience to handle all types of system design and installation, all roof top styles, ground mount systems, tracking systems, inverter systems and battery systems. For most people who are currently connected to a power provider such as PG&E, SMUD, or a local municipal power provider, a grid-tied system is an ideal solution. Grid-tie systems are simple, cost effective, and very reliable.
