Electrum is a managed, online bidding platform for homeowners to find competitive offers on home solar, battery storage, and electrification products. The traditional solar sales process was too difficult for homeowners to navigate alone. Max and Chris made it their mission to simplify the process, drive down costs and provide the consumer advocacy necessary for home electrification to achieve broad market success. Electrum's marketplace makes great pricing from vetted installers available to all. Electrum was founded under the name PickMySolar in 2014 by Max Aram and Chris Blevins. In January 2021, PickMySolar rebranded to Electrum in order to capture the full scope of the home electrification offerings available today.
