WS Continues Market Leadership in Solar Sector

March 11, 2011

Woodruff Sawyer today announced that it continues to expand its leadership position in the solar market with both developers and manufacturers by providing customized insurance solutions that address real business issues facing the industry.

In addition to the recently announced 25-year Performance Warranty insurance program, Woodruff Sawyer continues to innovate through collaboration with key partners in crafting insurance products that address the needs of the parties to a successful solar deal.

“We have been on the cutting edge of understanding the types of risk faced by the financers, developers and manufacturers in the solar space,” says Wade Pederson, Account Executive and member of Woodruff Sawyer’s Clean Technology Practice.

“Working collaboratively with our solar clients to solve their business issues when there is not an ‘off the shelf’ solution at hand is a challenge but one that we’re committed to seeing through,” says Steve Sawyer, Executive Vice President at Woodruff Sawyer. “It is exciting to bring new solutions to the market.”

Woodruff Sawyer formed their Clean Technology Practice in 2009 with Mr. Sawyer as the Principal in Charge, and the group’s client list has been growing steadily ever since. They provide Management Liability Insurance, Employee Benefits and Property & Casualty and specialized insurance solutions for firms of all sizes.
