Energy Concepts

University of Wisconsin-River Falls

I am pleased with the PV system installed by Energy Concepts on the University of Wisconsin-River Falls campus. Craigs engineering background was helpful in working through the technical requirements of a State Facility Project. He made good suggestions to improve the project and offered a good value.

Ran into a ridiculous number of issues with Sunpower, and eventually with the financing, but Energy Concepts did its part to solve the issues. It was also odd that I had to pull the building permit, but that wasn`t a big deal. My only real problem was communication. They didn`t seem to want to reply to all on an email, so I would often get similar responses from multiple people. Sometimes not all questions I asked in an email were answered. Jon can be hard to get a hold of. Any single issue wasn`t a big deal, but all of it added together made it frustrating.

Our system was very large, rather novel, and as such required major design work which was done very professionally. We have both 1) a large thermal solar heating system and 2) the PV system which supplies about 1/3 of our electricity. Energy Conceptsd, and their work partner Steiner Heating and Air Conditioning are very pro. Contractor helped me but I filled out the incentive paperwork.

this was the second installation they have done for me.
