Blue Raven Solar

Summary

Blue Raven Solar is a residential solar installation business founded in 2014, acquired by SunPower Corp. in 2021 for up to $165 million cash, then sold through SunPower's 2024 Chapter 11 process to Complete Solaria, Inc.. SunPower's 2021 release called Blue Raven one of the fastest growing residential solar providers in the US and cited 93% revenue CAGR — SunPower's announcement language.

Impact

SunPower's 2021 release called Blue Raven one of the fastest growing residential solar providers in the U.S. and cited 93% revenue CAGR — SunPower's announcement language, not an independent ranking (2021 PR). The Utah tie is Orem operations continuing under the post-bankruptcy SunPower Inc. shell rather than a standalone Utah startup brand today.

The ownership chain matters for anyone citing "Blue Raven was acquired by SunPower" in 2026: SunPower Corp. (CIK 0000867773) is not the same ongoing registrant as SunPower Inc. (CIK 0001838987) after the bankruptcy. Blue Raven survived as a division/business line bought out of Chapter 11, not as an independent company.

Bet: that a Utah County D2C installer with its own software stack (SunPower filings reference Albatross CRM separately from Blue Raven) could integrate into a national brand — if bankruptcy sales do not strip the operating culture that made the unit grow.

Utah Context

Orem is the documented operating address on the current SunPower-branded site capture. The company's 2014 founding in SunPower's telling is national D2C solar, with Utah as the visible headquarters node after acquisition — not "Provo startup" in the primary text (founding city not stated in the 2021 PR beyond "founded in 2014").

What They Need Now

Public careers/marketing on the SunPower-branded site emphasize residential sales, installation, and field operations; no separate Blue Raven careers URL was verified on capture. See https://us.sunpower.com/ for current postings.

Open Questions

• Final bankruptcy sale order vs stalking-horse $45M headline — press release terms; later court orders not pulled.
• Whether "Blue Raven Solar" remains a customer-facing legal name or is fully absorbed into SunPower Inc. marketing — the 2026 site capture shows SunPower Inc. branding only.
• Market-share / "largest installer" claims from the lead are unsourced here; 2021 PR uses "fastest growing" and "national top selling solar brand" as SunPower's words.
• Map coordinates are approximate geocode of the published Orem street address; not surveyed.
• Which registrant this page's cik should name is a real schema question, not a typo. It now records Blue Raven Solar, LLC's own CIK (0001657054, American Fork, UT — a Form D filer) rather than SunPower Inc.'s (0001838987), because a harvester following the parent's CIK would pull consolidated SunPower financials and attribute them here. **Identifiers:** has no successor key, so the ownership chain stays narrated above, where the three SEC filings support it.
