The Albany Gazette - MARS Energy Group Completes 10th Acquisition, Deepening Its California Footprint in Solar and Roofing Markets

ROCKLIN, CA / ACCESS Newswire / May 6, 2026 / MARS Energy Group ("MARS"), a national energy infrastructure company, today announced its acquisitions of Solar Savings Direct (dba Solar and Roof Direct) and Sequoia Roofing & Construction (collectively, "SSD & SRC"), a leading California-based provider of roofing and solar solutions serving both homebuilders and homeowners.

The acquisitions further solidify MARS' integrated platform across the solar and roofing markets, strengthening its ability to deliver end-to-end solutions spanning roofing, solar, and battery storage to homebuilders and homeowners in Northern California. With the addition of SSD & SRC, MARS now offers a more coordinated service model across both new construction and retrofit markets, including reroofing and residential solar installations.

SSD & SRC will continue to operate under their existing leadership during the transition, with Jeremy Read, Jessica Gluck, Kyle Baker, Gabriel Munoz, and Robert Williams remaining in key roles. The business will retain its current branding in the near term and is expected to transition to MARS Home Solutions in the future.

"MARS invests in high-quality operators with strong execution, customer focus, and the ability to adapt in dynamic markets," said Manvendra Saxena, Chairman & CEO of MARS Energy Group. "Jeremy and the SSD & SRC team have built a differentiated platform serving both homebuilders and homeowners. Their ability to continue growing the business in a post-NEM 2.0 environment is impressive and reflects the innovation and resilience of the team."

"Our customers should expect complete continuity in relationships, service, and delivery," said Jeremy Read, CEO of SSD & SRC. "What changes is our capacity to scale. With MARS's support, we are positioned to expand into new markets, increase installation capacity, and continue delivering the level of quality and reliability our partners expect."

Kyle Baker, CRO of SSD, added, "California requires partners who can execute consistently across individual homeowner projects. The retrofit market is crowded, and many companies have struggled to scale in this environment while SSD & SRC have been able to maintain quality and reliability. With MARS, we are even better equipped to expand our retrofit capabilities and meet rising demand with the infrastructure, resources, and operational support needed to scale efficiently."

Together, MARS and SSD & SRC are aligned in their focus on execution, safety, and long-term value creation, supporting the continued growth and resiliency of California's residential energy and housing markets.
