Premier Power Renewable Energy, Inc., a global leader in design, engineering and development in the US and European solar markets, announced the reports for 4Q08 and fiscal 2008.

The 2008 revenue totalled US$44.2 million, which is a 165% increase from the year before with gross profit margins at 12%, compared to 25.4% in 2007.  European sales were up 650%, mostly due to increased commercial rooftop sales, while those in the US grew over 100%, aided by the opening of a Southern California residential sales office.  With the financial crisis in effect globally, more customers are switching to cleaner, cost-efficient sources of energy, giving Premium Power an opportunity to take in plenty of revenue.
