Overview of EGT Solar Inc.
EGT Solar was founded in 2009 in Boise, ID as only the 2nd solar company in the state. Here at EGT Solar we are a fully licensed Electrical Contractor which means we do not hire any type of 3rd party contractors to do any work at all. We do everything in house from showing you how solar works all the way to the installation of the system. So everything from start to finish is done by EGT. Most homeowners would rather have a single contractor do all the work rather then have it subbed out to who knows who... Right? That said we have a 5 Star Rating on all Media outlets and an A+ with the Better Business Bureau. We are a locally owned and operated company right in Meridian, one of the only truly local companies in the area have been going on 12 years now. We are heavily involved in charitable organizations and always strive to give back to our community. You would rather work with someone local, right? Now the reason I say EGT Solar is a "Truly Local" company is because the popularity and demand of Solar is constantly rising out here so now, we are seeing Solar companies from out of state like Utah and a lot from California are starting to flood into the area and set up set up sales teams. Now of course they can sale you Solar but when a sales team from out of state moves into a new area it is not like they bring install crews and electricians with them. So what they do is hire 3rd party contractors to install the systems and that is where you run into the biggest problems. That is why it is so important to us at EGT Solar to do all of the work in house where we have all the proper training and licensing, so we can always take complete responsibility of the quality of your installation. Rest assured that EGT's vast experience will create a worry free solar experience!

Great Team at EGT Solar
The team at EGT was very helpful throughout the process of our installation. I had a number of questions for Dan, Jake and Casey; relating to the understanding the benefits of solars, how the system worked and how to effectively use the Tesla app on my phone. I have enjoyed having the Tesla Solar system; it has caused me to be much more cognizant of our electric power usage and how to manage our use. I certainly leave fewer lights on in unoccupied rooms. Also, like the idea of having back up power in the event we were impacted by an outage. I would recommend talking with EGT if you are considering solar. Last months bill was under $10.00.

From Beginning and Beyond, excellent customer service
We chose EGT after interviewing several other solar companies, EGT was the only company with a physical location in the area, The other companies hired sales reps to cover our area and were not very knowledgeable. I have talked to some people who have had other companies installed their systems and are forced to deal directly with the manufactures of the solar products that were installed for questions. EGT is there for you from the beginning and beyond. Burke at EGT was honest, very knowable, and pleasant to work with, he walked us through the process step by step, As are all the employees at EGT. I have had many questions since my system was installed. They are all very kind and patient, at the age of 70, I am not the sharpest with new technology.

I was very impressed with the service Austin provided to help me in a bad situation. He went out of his way to help me out since my installer went out of business. (nice of them to tell me)!! Austin was very professional, patient and friendly. I highly recommend them for any solar panel work should you choose to have solar panels installed.

Excellent, a hard act to follow!
It can be difficult in making a choice for Solar installation, I can tell you from my experience this company is outstanding. From the beginning of sales to end of installation the team was knowledgable, honest, courteous, responsible and eager to assist and get the job done. I live in a rural area where it is hard to get help or workers. EGT showed up on time, brought a crew who hit the ground running. They worked all day with a short lunch break and the installation was completed within the time period they anticipated. The inspector from Idaho Power, who has monitored solar installation for many years, told me they were one of the if not the best installers of solar power in the State. " They're a good outfit!", he said. I agree.

We purchased a solar array from SGT Solar 3.5 years ago. Their solar panels have been top quality. Whenever we have had questions or problems, they have been addressed quickly, and at no cost to us. The salesman offered complete transparency. We are satisfied and grateful for our purchase and their maintenence of our array.

Professional and Knowledgable
We chose EGT Solar over Blue Raven because of the professionalism and knowledge that Steve Harrel presented. He was clear and concise, he provided literature and panel options. He answered all of our questions with ease. Installation of our solar panels, solar fan and battery backup went as planned and the workmanship was absolutely stellar. When the city inspection was done, our inspector told us "This is a clean and professional job and spoke very highly about the quality workmanship he observed compared to other companies". EGT Solar's customer service is great, they always answer the phone with a smile. Recently, I contacted them regarding our $500 Panasonic Rebate Visa Card which had expired. We had family issues and dealt with an out of state death in the family. EGT checked to see if Panasonic would reissue the visa card, however they could not. To our surprise EGT sent us a $500 VISA card which totally blessed us. We highly recommend that you use EGT Solar for all of your solar needs.

EGT Solar Inc is the best
December 2021 ALL of the folks were very responsive and easy to work with, they did not continually contact me about the project after plan submission. After looking at about 4 different company's this is the one i choose and it turned out that it was a great choice. The system was installed 12/2021 and as of today 5/2022 I am on my second monthe of NO POWER BILLS! From the time i contacted EGT the sales rep and all of the folks in the office were extremely helpful in answering my questions even when walking into the office, they even proposed several installations based on my questions and concerns. The Master Electrician and installation crew were some of the most wonderful and professional folks i have worked with. It is one of the best experiences when a crew shows up on ahead of schedule and gets the job complete with no issues and ahead of schedule. If you are looking for solar installation then I would recommend you choose this company the uses there OWN contractors and employees to get the job done. THANK YOU ALL
Excellent company to work with!

Efficient, Professional, Courteous
We consulted with four solar companies before choosing to work with EGT. Rob was knowledgeable and thorough as he presented EGT’s proposed layout. We had many questions, but Rob was extremely patient and empathetic with our concerns. Once we had made our decision, every aspect of the project went smoothly - and surprisingly quickly, including just two days for complete installation. Megan in the office was efficient, responsive and courteous and made us feel that we were a high priority for them! We await Idaho Power’s visit to inspect so that we can be solar.

EGT Solar is the best!
EGT was wonderful to work with. Bryan answered all of my questions and explained everything so well. They don't try to sneak anything past you in the fine print like the other companies that I got bids from. The installation was even faster than we expected and they take care of everything for you. Megan was also very helpful in explaining how everything would flow seamlessly and it did! Outstanding local company and I highly recommend them!

Quality product, prompt service, and delivered as promised!
I chose EGT because their CEO responded promptly, held to his bid. Also, the sales presentation was clear, fair and honest. When their tech rep was here to finalize the plan, he was knowledgeable, and thorough. The installation crew was equally thorough and finished the install as promised.

A Great Customer Experience
The team at EGT Solar was great to work with throughout the entire process. From the initial inquiry through flipping the switch, they walked me through every step of the process. They took their time for me to make decisions, handled all aspects of the install, and provided several financing options to find the one that best fit our situation. They were professional and customer focused. You can't go wrong with EGS Solar.

Great upfront -- Great follow through
Even Green Technology was great from the initial contact. Completely professional the whole process with transparent pricing and payback modeled out; I knew exactly how to compare vs other bids. Moreover, anytime during the process/install where I had questions, prompt reply/solutions were given/implemented.

Great job! Everything was explained very well. Work was done on tine, in a timely manner, and project was left clean. They weren't the cheapest bid, but after spending 40 years in the construction business, I knew the job would be completed with out any issues. Love the five buck bill every moth from the power company!

My Solar System
I have had my system in operation for nearly five months at this time. I have been very happy with the system. During the sales process I felt the EGT people were very open and answered every question. They provided me with all the information I requested prior to making a decision. I have found that their energy estimates have been very accurate and the energy I have been getting from their system matches their projections very well. During the installation, I found a point of misunderstanding between me and the sales person. Upon further review we were able to resolve the issue to my satisfaction. Their installation crew was courteous and accurate. I was happy with their on-site work. I have been pleased with the system and with the people in the EFT organization. I like their system hardware much better than hardware I had seen from other providers. I think they understand solar and offer a product that is more useful in more situations. I would definitely choose them again.

They were able to provide a more efficient layout with less panels that were of a higher quality at a better price than their competitors. Everyone I dealt with from the office and install crew were great to work with as well. Communication was done effectively throughout the entire process.

Reliable and knowledgable
We'd been looking at several options for solar but at the end of the searching period, we decided to go with EGT because they had a local office, and for every question we asked they gave us solid, straightforward answers. When they came to do the inspections and install, everything was professional and very quick. It was great to just sign off on the work and have everything just come together.

EGT Solar Review
Installing solar panels was a big decision for my husband and me because we are in our 80’s and 70’s, respectively. However, Bryan explained things to us so well that it made perfect sense, both environmentally and financially, and now we couldn’t be happier. The installation was quick and easy, even though there was a bit of a wait for Idaho Power to get the meter installed. The system has worked perfectly since it was installed almost a year ago, and our bill has never been more than the $5.22/mo. for metering. It’s been amazing! Thanks to Bryan and the EGT team for such a pleasant and outstanding experience.
