Energy Design

Our home required a fairly complicated analysis of options and Jeremiah Chavez was just fantastic to work with. He really worked hard and creatively but in the end had to recommend not proceeding because a project wouldn't make economic sense in our particular and somewhat unusual circumstances. I am rating Energy Design with five stars because the experience was really very positive and it is so important to work with someone who will give you honest information and work with your best interests in mind. I highly recommend contacting Energy Design If you are contemplating a solar project.

Great Experience

One of the lowest quotes I got out of about five, maybe second. But I also chose them from great reviews I heard personally from other customers, the quality of the quote experience, and they were one of the most local options. Jeremiah took the time to answer all my questions patiently and without making me feel rushed. The install finished ahead of schedule, on budget, and the whole crew was friendly. Easy to recommend highly.

I spent a lot of time getting bids from rooftop solar providers, from regional, national, and local companies. Many of these companies promised a far larger system than my roof could accommodate, because they didn't send anyone to look at my actual house. Energy Design spent time carefully looking at my house, my roof, and the surrounding trees, and gave us a carefully crafted bid. Jeremiah ended up creating multiple plans to accommodate our various "what ifs." He was excellent at explaining what could and could not be done at our address, and why. He was clear about various state and federal rebate programs and was able to optimize our rebates to make the system affordable. The crew that installed the system showed up on time, explained what they were doing, and did an excellent and efficient job. We are 100% satisfied with the system we got from Energy Design and would wholeheartedly recommend them if you are considering a solar project.

From the first day Jeremiah came by to look at my roof and explain the assessment that had been done until the last detail of the project had been completed, Energy Design was an absolutely incredible company to work with. They were efficient, stuck exactly to the timeline they had given me at the outset, did the work in a totally professional manner and left me with a system that couldn't be working better. I highly recommend them to anyone considering adding solar panels to your home or business.

My husband and I highly recommend Energy Design for those able and interested in getting rooftop solar. It was great working with Jeremiah to figure out how to get the most electricity out of panels on a fairly unusual roof. I get the sense that Energy Design cares a lot about the organizations and people they work with. They clearly tried to keep the price as low as possible, especially because they knew we would not qualify for federal solar rebates. They were clear and accurate on the date that they would begin work. The crew showed up promptly and worked efficiently to get our system finished in a couple days and seemed to enjoy working with each other. Hana in the office was very helpful and quick answering questions, sending out invoices, payment requests and receipts. Our roof with panels is now producing lots of electricity, which will wind up saving us on our EWEB bill. It was a joy to work with Energy Design.

We loved working with Energy Design at all stages! During initial discussions, design, installation, and followup. They were friendly, kind, knowledgeable, honest, and did great work. We love the solar array they installed on our residential house, and they were very honest and straight forward about what we needed, and what we didn't need. We appreciated that and felt very positive about proceeding with them. Thanks, Energy Design!

Great to work with

Had a system installed years ago. They we're easy to work with, professional and flexible with my needs. System is still woulrking well and has come in handy numerous times during power failures. Would recommend.

Energy Design did an absolutely top-notch job. The sales person was also the technical manager and really knew his stuff having worked in the field for many years and with many different types of solar systems. The design staff that surveyed the site and came up with the detailed design were also very good - and the design was detailed enough for the installation staff and required no changes. The staff that actually did the installation were excellent - did it right the first time and were perfectionists in their work. One can`t go wrong with Energy Design.

I was extremely pleased with the technical performance of energy design. Their work saled thru the County and Power Company inspection with no required fixes.

We did have a problem in that the installers initially installed a few too many support-frame footings. However, the company worked with us to come up with a cost effective and quite satisfactory solution. The inspector was very impressed with the installaation.

I am not sure what you mean by purchase incentives. We got a $ 1 per kW rebate from our utility. We also got a USDA Energy grant for 1/4 of the cost. These two grants together made the project financially feasible for us.

Great company, well trained staff very helpful dealing with the electric company and the county permits and inspections clean install, all components well labeled

Vince McClellan is the ideal contractor - very experienced and knowledgeable, thorough, careful, fair and personable. Our installation was highly praised by other contractors `What a clean installation!` `Wow, great work`, the same contractors who charge 20% more for their work. The rising costs of utilities have made hot water and small PV systems in Oregon wise investments with better long term return compared to a bond investment
