Hi, I’m Howard Baylen aka Howie the Solar Guy.

My focus is on educating homeowners about solar and breaking the myth that it’s expensive. Spoiler alert: many homeowners can go solar with no out-of-pocket cost. Solar can help lower electric bills, reduce your carbon footprint, and create long-term energy savings all while investing in a cleaner future. I work remotely and on your schedule, offering consultations by phone or Zoom. No door knocking, no pressure.

​

Before solar, I spent more than 16 years building a successful career selling medical supplies to hospitals, where trust, education, and long-term relationships mattered. That same approach is what I bring to solar today.

Outside of work, I’m a proud dad of four boys (25, 19, 15, and 7). Born in the ’70s, my kids keep me grounded, motivated, and always learning.

 

Education:
Northern Illinois University — Bachelor of General Studies
A true “jack-of-all-trades” degree earned while figuring out where I fit best.
