“Securing this investment from Warburg Pincus, one of the world’s leading private equity firms, is a major validation for Mosaic and provides an open runway for growth,” said Billy Parish, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Mosaic. “They are a uniquely qualified equity partner given their deep experience in the energy, technology and financial services sectors, and strong track record in supporting management teams to build businesses of scale – all of which will be invaluable to Mosaic as we pursue our vision to make clean energy accessible and affordable for everyone.”

“The U.S. residential solar market is set to grow rapidly for the foreseeable future,” added Saurabh Agarwal, Principal in the Energy Group at Warburg Pincus. “Mosaic has quickly become the preferred partner for installers and consumers alike across the nation, and we look forward to working with Billy and his team to build the Company and meet the growing demand in this space.”
