Start prepping now for this upcoming winter- contact: Wild Peak Energy

Is your solar and backup power ready for winter? 🌧️⚡

NOAA is forecasting a potentially very strong El Niño for the 2026–27 winter, and we're already hearing from homeowners preparing their roofs and electrical systems for the season.

We've been getting more calls from people who need help with existing solar systems—particularly SolarEdge systems—as well as solar that needs to be removed and reinstalled for roof replacement.

I have years of experience diagnosing and repairing SolarEdge systems, including systems installed by companies that are no longer around or no longer provide service.

Wild Peak Energy can help with:

• SolarEdge troubleshooting & repair
• Solar systems that aren't producing properly
• Inverter & system diagnostics
• Solar removal & reinstallation for roofing
• Battery storage & backup power
• Standby generators
• Existing solar & electrical system upgrades

We also provide complete residential and commercial electrical services throughout El Dorado, Placer & Sacramento Counties.

Don't wait for the first major storm to find out your solar or backup system isn't working properly.

BREAKING NEWS!! THE PRESSURE IS BOILING OVER.

County Supervisor Lori Parlin is now publicly calling out Mosquito Fire District directors over misinformation and delays surrounding the shared services agreement with Garden Valley Fire.

Parlin says both districts had reached an agreement—but a previously rejected issue was reopened, preventing the proposal from moving forward.

How much longer can Mosquito residents afford to wait for leadership to stop the delays and deliver progress?

It was an honor to gather with firefighters, friends, and community members at the Recognition BBQ celebrating Chief Edward Dwyer and his dedicated service to our community.

The event also commemorated the Little Free Library purchased by the Mosquito Firefighters Association in 2021 with generous donations from community members. We’re excited that it will soon be installed at the station for everyone to enjoy.

Thank you, Chief Dwyer, for your leadership and commitment—and thank you to the Mosquito Fire Safe Council for supporting the firefighters in hosting this special event.

The Mosquito Fire Protection District Board meeting has been rescheduled just one day before its originally scheduled date due to an agenda-posting issue.

The Thursday 8/27 meeting will be postponed to 9/1 at 7:00pm - this will allow for residents that are typically unable to attend the meetings during working hours to be present.

What’s really holding up the Shared Services Agreement?

After months of speculation, Garden Valley’s latest meeting may offer the clearest indication yet.

This Thursday at 3:00 p.m., the Mosquito Fire District Board will consider Director Maria Rodriguez’s proposal to replace either Trent Williams or Bill Buhnerkempe on the negotiating committee.

Read the update and join the conversation about securing a fair, workable agreement for Mosquito Fire.
