Solar Battery Installation & Commisioning

I recently had solar batteries installed at my residence to improve my solar system's efficiency. ES Solar installed the Tesla Powerwall 3 batteries and the entire process from design to installation went very well. After SMUD performed their final inspection and gave me permission to operate, ES Solar came out to commission my system. Ty'Andre from ES Solar handled my commissioning appointment. He turned on my system and made sure that it was performing as expected. Everything went very well with the test run. My system is now on and performing great. Next Ty'Andre sat down with me and thoroughly explained ehow to use the Tesla app to manage my system. Ty'Andre did a great job explaining the steps and documentation required to apply for the Tesla and SMUD rebates. My entire project process from the design phase to the final commission appointment which turned on my system went exceptionally well! Thanks to the ES Solar Team for a project very well done!!

Good work! Great customer experience with Danny Villegas. Great company to get solar from!

Great experience, very knowledgeable and helpful.

The value of the battery does not justify the price!

Our experience with ES Solar has been mixed, and unfortunately the negatives outweigh the positives. The salesman misrepresented the actual cost we would owe after rebates. He quoted us an interest‑only payment and made it sound like our final cost would be far lower than it truly was. Once everything was finalized, we learned the real numbers — and they were nowhere near what we were told. The battery system we purchased has not been worth the money. Based on the actual performance and the true cost, it will take far longer than its guaranteed lifespan to break even. Had we been given accurate information upfront, we would not have moved forward with this part of the system. To be fair, the installation team was excellent. They were on time, professional, and completed the work quickly. The workmanship was solid, and they did everything they said they would. But overall, the cost simply isn’t worth the squeeze. The sales tactics were misleading, and the value of the battery does not justify the price. I wish the installation team’s quality matched the honesty of the sales process.

ES solar review

Es solar did a fantastic job. They were easy to work with and made sure we had the right system at a great price. So glad we went with them!

ES Solar Sales Rep., Site Survey, Installation, Sys. Performance

Decided to have have ES Solar come out and do a site survey on solar panel installation for our home. Our sales rep. Korbin was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with throughout the installation. Installers were excellent and know their job well. We ended up with 32/400 watt panels on our home and the installation was fast, done well, and the installers taught us a lot about the system. We opted for a 10KVA backup battery to the system to reduce our use night time power use. The system has been about as transparent (user wise) as getting your power from the grid. We are generating significantly more power than we use back feeding the grid but our power bill for the last 20 months has been about $15.00! That's down from $350.00 a month enduring summer air conditioning bills. I have seen some of the complaints from customer feedback and I do not know or want to comment others peoples situations, all I can do is tell you of our experience. We had absolutely a great experience dealing with ES Solar and their entire sales team, installers, and the quality of the work. GREAT JOB ES SOLAR TEAM!!! Than you for our new solar system and the money we are saving!!!! Thanks again Korbin (our sales representative) for being there well after the sale and supporting us!

Great company to work with

ES Solar added a Powerwall 3 to my existing solar panel array. It is an amazing upgrade. They were professional and competent at every step of the process. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Buyer beware

What I was sold and told during my sales presentation is not even close to what i got. I was told for the same price as im paying for electrical services I can get solar panels. Not true. I was told no more electric bills and in some case that I would get money back from the power company, also not true. I was told the system is hassle free if there are any problems they have a team that will take care of it, again not true. My expenses so far is my solar panels cost 150.00 more a month than originally presented, my electric bill is still between 60-100 a month and my inverter has failed twice, my battery system has failed and been replaced and it’s next to impossible to get someone out and take care of it. I have sent several emails attempting to resolve issues and nothing has changed. So if you want to double your electrical cost for a system that consistently breaks and shuts down….then this is the company for you. (Sarcasm)

Hhh

Everyone we worked with was very helpful. They explained things that we didn’t understand. Appreciate your service.

We're pleased with our battery and looking forward to the benefits.

Installation experience

We just got our ES Solar installed with Tesla and their team was hands down amazing, friendly, smooth, quick service. Thank you from the install team, and commissioning team! Loved this experience!

Roofing and Sonnen Battery

Dallin and his roofing team impressed me with their professionalism, speed and quality. Was expecting a 2 day job, but they started early and finished by 3:30 pm on day 1. The roof looks great, they cleaned up really well and communicated just the right amount! The battery team did a great job with the battery install. Completing on time and provide all the details I needed to use the Sonnen system. Everything is working as expected today. Definitely recommend ES for roofing and Solar/battery installs in your home.

Great service

My experience with ES Solar has been flawless so far. They’ve taken care of all the details. My house is now generating electricity. They’ve been generous with their time to to make sure all of my questions are answered. Thank you!

Had the team come out and install panel and battery for us. They are quick and professional and the app is really easy to comprehend!

Great company to work with. Everything from install, roof and sales was great.

Poor customer service and lies

Would give this company a zero star rating if it would allow it. Everything at first was great until things that were promised to you in the sale and paperwork. Was told my payment wouldn’t be for six months when actually was only 90 days which made my payment double what was disclosed to me. I wasn’t supposed to have a payment tell after my tax rebate and all other rebates that were promised. All was told I would receive 500$ from the salesperson to help if I had to make one payment before the six months and also a 500$ welcome gift. I have tried contacting this business multiple times with no success no call backs no emails back. Poor customer service seams to be there place in this business. I feel like I was scammed big time by this company just so they could get there sale and dip out with my money.

Solar battery

Would give installation, project manger and commissioning groups 5 stars but lack of communication from salesperson and “enhanced services group”, I can only do 4 stars

My electrical bill is higher now

We went over by last years electric bill and we already had 21 panels on the house. we paid around $100-$150 a month. ES Solar salesman and engineer looked over everything as said we should add 8 more panels and a battery to get us down to just the grid fee. We decided to go with the plan and now we 29 panels and a battery, we only charge our cars during the time our panels are getting solar, we removed a garage fridge and stopped running dishwasher, and laundry when the panels get a charge. now are electric bill is higher than it was prior to making those changes. we pay over $200 a month, the solar edge app shows we are also giving power back to the grid after our battery is fully charged. we have called ES Solar so many times and nobody gets back to us but they say they are looking into it. I had to ensure the solar and the battery were installed based on the timeline they provided us and I had to call over ten times for the rebate check from ES Solar and for them to provide the power company the documents for that rebate check as well. poor company, all they want is to make a sale. The installers were great and polite.

Consultant Tanner

Tanner, was awesome. He explained everything so well and was so professional and answered all our questions. We appreciate Tanner so much!

NO BUSINESS FROM ME!

I had an appointment with ES Solar at 10:am on 6/18/25 and this company was a no show, no call, nothing! This is not the kind of company I want to do business with. Hope no one else has this kind of service. To have an appointment and have a no show for a consultation is not the way to start a business deal. If I did this to my customers, I would not have a business. If I could put negative stars I would.

System failure within 4 months of installation

ES Solar has been a fantastic company to work with. However, within 4 months of a $26,000 battery backup installation the system has quit working. The Solar Edge system no longer produces any power of any kind. The biggest issue is there is no support from Solar Edge to fix the issue. ES Solar is trying to help fix the issue but as of this point the $26,000 investment is a waste of time.

Great Experience

Great company to work with. Ruben and Kyler were great with communication and setting expectations and following up. Install was good, crew cleaned up and explained everything as they went along.

Battery Backup installed by ES Solar

I contacted ES Solar after seeing an add on UTube. ES Solar connected with me by phone within hours and we set the ball rolling! All the people we worked with and talked with were polite, respectful, listened well and responded to our questions and concerns. The purchase went very smoothly, with ES Solar recommending Credit Human Credit Union as the financial institution handling the loan. The actual installation went as smooth as possible, even though it was interrupted by sever weather conditions! Inspections were done in a timely manner and we were well informed when the Inspections took place. We are very pleased with our purchase, very pleased to have selected ES Solar as the company to work with for this project! Thank you to all the nice people we worked with: Jaeger, Jamie, Mica, Jared, Enoch and several others!

My experience with ES Solar gave me great confidence in the product. Customer Service always responded quickly via email and phone. My husband and I appreciated the knowledge that technicians brought to the table. Adding the Tesla Powerwall 3 will greatly expand our power abilities during daily use and especially during power outages.

These guys are great to work with. Good communication, very polite installers, and knowledgeable staff. They got my project handled quickly. Looking forward to continuing with them.
