LEHI, Utah, Feb. 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Vivint Solar (NYSE: VSLR), a leading provider of residential solar systems in the United States, announced today that it is now offering residential solar leases to homeowners in the State of Utah. Headquartered in Lehi, Utah, the company currently employs nearly 1,000 in its corporate offices and plans to hire approximately 60 additional employees on sales, installation and operations team to support Utah homeowners. The company is approaching 3,000 employees nationwide.

"Vivint Solar is proud to call Utah its home as we have become the second largest installer of residential solar energy in the United States," said Greg Butterfield, CEO of Vivint Solar. "We are now providing energy consumers in the State of Utah with the opportunity to change the way they create and consume electricity, by affordably connecting homes and businesses to the sun through our solar lease and cash purchase programs."

With a Vivint Solar lease, Utah homeowners can lock in a fixed monthly lease payment for a rooftop solar energy system with no down payment or upfront costs for installation and permitting.
