Future Energy Savers

Terrific Future Energy Savers installation

I had my small Solar Panel system and Battery back up installed in late Fall 2025. The entire team from sales to installation were professional and mindful to all details. There was no pressure to sign a contract with James and he was careful and mindful for covering all details. The installation team that included Aaron and Connor as well as a third person I am now forgetting his name (sorry), were also some of the most conscientious contractor/workers I have ever had. Their focus on detail to meet HOA rules as well as local installation codes was flawless. I invested in the system to have the small battery back up system, in the event of an outage. It has worked flawlessly on at least two occasions. I still have not decoded the PGE savings after many months of watching Bills. Thanks to the Federal Rebates that were still in effect when I purchased the system the price was within reason. Unfortunately those have now be suspended but hopefully will return in the not so distant future. I highly recommend Future Energy Savers if you are shopping for a Solar Power System.

Fantastic Throughout

Future Energy Savers was fantastic to work with throughout the process. Actually met with them years ago and like the idea of solar but not in position to purchase at that time. They stayed in touch over the years (non-intrusive and never pushy), and when timing was right we purchased. We've now had our system in place for about 3 months and with weather turning warmer, we're now almost fully solar self sufficient. Monthly SMUD bill used to be right around $200 and most recent was around $40 and we're consistently banking excess credits with SMUD that will be used in months when we're not producing as much solar. As recent retirees, it's very comforting knowing that we should be insulated from increased energy costs moving forward. FES were great in keeping us up to date and informed re: next steps throughout the process and the actual install was seamless and FAST! Highly recommend Future Energy Savers for anyone considering solar.

We are satisfied with our newly installed solar sysetm

We are satisfied with our solar system installed in Dec. 2025 by Future Energy Savers. It cut our electricity bill by almost 60%. The sales representative, Aurelien Mogenros, is very friendly and professional. He reviewed our utility bill and recommended a system operated by Generac PWR Inverter and Battery module system with a 25-yr warranty. The installation staffs are professional and knowledgeable. The permitting and installation process are smooth. We are happy with the service and will recommend Future Energy Savers to our friends.

Future Solar Installation

We installed Solar with Future Solar. It was way easier than I thought. They took care of everything you would need to complete the installation. From the permits, city inspection, and submitting the plans with the HOA. They ask where I wanted to place the cable conduit on the house and in the garage to keep the esthetics of the house looking nice. During the installation I was taught about the whole solar system. I would recommend their services. Worth looking into if you want solar.

Great company and service!

About two years ago, I was in the process of looking at different solar companies so that I could reduce my utility bill. A person came to my door and I eventually agreed to purchase a leasing solar system. The next day, a representative from Future Energy Saver came to my door. Bruce began to explain the difference between leasing a solar system versus purchasing one. I immediately changed to buying my solar system from Future Energy Savers. It was one of the best decisions I’ve made. When James Krohn came to explain more details about solar and their system I found out that Future Energy Savers was a top dealer on the West Coast for Generac. I have a Generac generator that was not properly permitted. Staff from Future Energy Savers found the problem and was able to get the previous contractor to get the appropriate permit and approved by the city. Bottom line they were able to seamlessly integrate the solar system with my generator. This included backup batteries for the solar. I have had several power outages in my neighborhood. I have had plenty of battery back up that did not deplete the batteries during those outages. Given that PG&E is going up on all of their utilities I decided to add even more solar panels to offset price increases. I have also had an energy assessment done by Future Energy Savers and found out other ways to save energy. They have been very, very helpful in that process. I have other things that I need to do to save energy in my house, however, I am purchasing energy efficient Anlin windows from them that should substantially reduce heat from the sun and nearly eliminate UV rays. I would highly recommend this company to everyone.

Solid Solar Experience from Start to Finish

We first met Future Energy Savers in 2023 at a local Tri-County Home & Garden Show in Sacramento and scheduled an in-home appointment with James about a week and a half later. From the start, James was incredibly thorough and transparent. He walked us through the company’s history, general solar education, technical details of the panels and batteries, and what customer support looks like after installation. The initial meeting lasted close to three hours, and at no point did we feel rushed or pressured. Future Energy Savers was the third solar company we spoke with, and at the time, we truly wanted to move forward with them. Unfortunately, we had just purchased our home and our credit had taken a hit from the new mortgage, so we were not approved for financing. We were honest with James and let him know we would revisit solar in about a year. About a year later, James followed up. At that time, my husband and I still weren’t quite ready, but he remained professional and respectful. In mid-2025, with PG&E bills becoming ridiculously high and the solar tax credit set to expire at the end of 2025, we were finally motivated to move forward. Since our initial meeting in 2023, I had also done a lot of independent research and felt very confident in the quality, design, and performance of the panels and storage batteries Future Energy Savers offers. James came out again and tailored the meeting since we already had a strong understanding of solar. He provided an updated quote, answered our questions, and we decided to move forward. Prior to installation, a technical site visit was completed to determine panel placement and system components on our roof and around the house. After this visit, it was determined that we would not be able to install the originally quoted 14 kW system due to roof limitations and panel orientation, and we were advised to downsize to a 7 kW system. This was disappointing news initially, but this is where Rob, the General Manager, really stood out. Rob took the time to have an extended and thoughtful conversation with me about how to best address the downsizing. He patiently answered all of my questions and worked through different options with me until we found a solution that made sense. Ultimately, we increased our battery storage to help offset the reduced system size. In the end, we actually saved money on the total contract price and reached a resolution that felt fair and customer-focused. While the situation wasn’t ideal at first, I truly appreciated Rob’s patience, transparency, and willingness to find a solution that worked for us. Once everything was finalized, installation was scheduled about a month and a half later. The installation itself took two days, and the crew was excellent—on time, professional, friendly, and very careful with our property. They answered questions throughout the process and clearly took pride in their work. Future Energy Savers handled all permitting with the city and coordinated system activation with PG&E. From installation to full activation, it took a little over a month, which felt reasonable given PG&E timelines. Our system went live in July 2025, and we’ve been very happy with the decision to go solar. With rising energy costs, it’s reassuring to see monthly savings and feel more in control of our electrical usage. Post-install support has been solid. We’ve had two service calls—both for the same PV link issue. While it took a few weeks for a technician to come out each time, the second visit stood out because Future Energy Savers immediately replaced the part instead of going back and forth troubleshooting. Since then, we’ve had no further issues. Overall, we are very happy with Future Energy Savers—from the detailed and educational sales process, to consistent follow-up, a smooth installation, thoughtful problem-solving, and dependable post-install support. We would recommend them to anyone considering solar and looking for a company that genuinely puts the customer first.

A Job Well Done by All.

Future Energy Savers, out of Elk Grove is an Awesome company to work with. Very open and professional. From our first encounter with Frankie at the CA State Fair, to James the Salesman, Lisa in the office, Rob the Project manager, Generac our solar company and a several others, the Job was well done. The installation of the Solar looks Beautiful, We are already seeing savings and with the Battery installed, the system, worked as promised, when we had a power outage in our neighborhood last week. Future Energy Savers also helped use with a new roof installation before solar system was installed. They were a one stop operation for us. Future Energy Savers are Great people to work with. If you have ANY questions about anything during the project, and after wards, they are there for You!

Outstanding

From start to finish, Future Energy was fantastic to work with. The team was respectful, professional, and took great care to keep our property clean. We couldn’t be happier with our Generac battery system, and their customer service has been incredibly efficient and helpful. Overall a great experience. I highly recommend Future Energy for your solar system.

Top Notch Service and Products

We had a Future Energy Savers solar panel and Generac battery system installed in our home this past Fall. We are very pleased with the results and the total installation process. Our neighborhood experienced a power outage soon after it was installed and the system worked flawlessly in supplying immediate power to our home. We highly recommend Future Energy Savers for their top notch service and quality products.

I had a great experience with Future Energy for the sale and installation of my solar panels and battery system. From the initial consultation through to final commissioning, the team was knowledgeable, transparent, and easy to work with. They took the time to explain the system design, expected performance, and battery options clearly, without any pressure or upselling. The installation itself was carried out on schedule by a professional and tidy crew, and everything was completed to a high standard. Communication throughout the process was excellent, and any questions I had were answered promptly and clearly. Since installation, the system has been performing exactly as expected, and it’s reassuring to have the battery in place for energy savings and backup. I would happily recommend Future Energy to anyone considering solar and battery installation — a smooth, well-managed process with a quality result.

New solar

I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Future Energy Solar. The system has made a real, measurable difference. To put it in perspective: my electric bill in December 2024 was $422. This December, it dropped to $221 — nearly half — with no lifestyle changes. That alone speaks volumes about how well the system performs. From start to finish, the process was smooth and professional. The team was knowledgeable, transparent, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Installation was efficient, and any questions I had were handled promptly. If you’re on the fence about solar, I highly recommend Future Energy Solar. The savings are real, and the peace of mind is worth it.

Exceeded Expectations

After being approached by several solar representatives over the past six to twelve months who never followed up, we were fortunate to schedule an appointment with a representative from Future Energy Savers. He was knowledgeable and patiently answered all our questions. We especially appreciated the custom calculations that took into account our planned inground pool installation and existing electric car charger, clearly showing the potential savings. The entire installation took about three weeks to complete. The solar panels are nicely and perfectly arranged on the roof, and the system was up and running immediately. The Generac power cabinet and controller were carefully installed on the side of the house. We are extremely pleased with the professional and careful way all the equipment was installed. Communication throughout the process was seamless; the team was very responsive and available whenever we needed to contact them. All installation crews were professional, accommodating to our schedule, and always on time. They minimized noise to avoid bothering neighbors, and the work area was consistently cleaned upon completion. There was no damage to the roof or house walls, and they even painted the conduits to match the existing house paint. The system includes a user-friendly app that allows us to easily monitor energy production and usage from the solar panels and batteries, no matter where we are. Overall, the outcome was beyond our expectations, and we highly recommend Future Energy Savers. Installing the solar system is one of the best improvements we've made to our house, and we are also happy to be making a positive contribution to the environment.

The best experience with a contractor that we ever had!

Our experience with Future Energy Savers was incredible from the initial phone call to the final inspection and beyond! The meeting with the sales team was amazing. Brianna took the time to explain EVERYTHING in complete detail, and she provided written documentation to support her answers. We were very impressed with that, it showed us WE were important to her, not just the sell! We were on the fence about going solar, but after meeting with Brianna, we could not wait to get started. Future Energy Savers has dedicated team members for each phase of an install. We worked with many different employees, we would like to name them all personally, but to be honest we do not remember all of their names. What we do remember is that every one of them were extremely professional, knowledgeable, punctual, and so very, very nice. We are proud to be a part of the Future family! We are glad we choose the Generac battery system. It holds a good charge and is easy to use. We love the Generac app that allows us to see everything the battery is doing with a click of a button. It shows how much solar is being generated and it shows the state of charge of the battery. We can even see when we are using the power company and how much we are selling back to them. We love it when that figure is a lot larger than what we are using! We are so glad we finally went solar. We are saving a lot of money in electricity costs. Our last electricity bill was $18.34! We are also very glad we found Future energy Savers, the absolute best to work with.

This solar system really delivers as promised.

We interviewed a couple of different solar companies when we started looking to install a solar system on our home. We chose future energy savers because their services met our needs. And they would allow us to buy the system outright. They were very helpful in designing the system to our special needs. We wanted specific installation locations for both the panels and the box as well as our EV charger. They were very helpful and made excellent suggestions. The installation went very smoothly and quickly. They even ran the conduit at my request up under the eaves to hide them and I provided the paint and they painted them to match my house. The installers were very graceful, professional, and accommodating. We would highly recommend them. The only regret we have is we didn’t buy more battery capacity.

Fantastic Company with Excellent Service

Recently purchased solar (with a state of the art Generac system) through Future Energy Savers and the entire process was fantastic. They provided a fantastic overview at our initial conversation and were able to answer any questions my wife and I had about purchasing and onboarding Solar to our house. After purchase, the install was quick and super convenient as it only impacted us for about 5 minutes when moving some things around on power side. After installation, the cost benefits have been fantastic with a huge decrease to our energy bill. Additionally, the app to check energy usage really allowed my wife and I to get a better understanding of when we're using the most energy and how to best optimize our usage as our system is only setup for 70% coverage. Lastly, the battery backup was a great investment as we've been able to keep power going to our house during a power outage without any hiccup in our key devices. Service wise, Future has been fantastic at providing prompt, thorough, and helpful support for any questions we've had and making sure we were informed throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend them for anybody looking to add Solar to their house.

Excellent Work!

I used Future Energy Savers on an old property back in 2015. Had excellent service then so when it came time to change the roof and add solar to my current residence, they were at the top of the list. They quickly sent a sales team out to look at our electrical situation and to provide quotes for different sized systems, working with my future energy use plans as well as my current usage. They weren't the cheapest option, but I knew I was getting quality materials from their Generac system. The installation was quick but thorough, making sure everything worked and promptly replacing anything that didn't. They showed me how to use the Generac PWRview app on my phone to monitor my energy collection and use. Overall, they were amazing with everyone courteous, prompt, and knowledgeable. I don't plan on moving anytime soon, but, if for some reason I do, and need solar (or roofing), Future Energy would be my go to hands down.

Great Company-Highly Recommend

I couldn't have asked for a more efficient and safe company to install my new solar panel system than Future Energy Savers. From start to finish, the employees I interacted with were both helpful and knowledgeable, beginning with my sales rep Gabe. Gabe was very clear and through in going through all of the financial information. The lead Devin was great to work with, answered all of my questions, and provided me with plenty of information regarding how my system operates and what to look out for. There was a excellent four man crew that respected my property, and wore all of the proper safety equipment. They even went so far as to paint all of the aluminum conduit the same color as my house. It is this attention to detail that really stood out to me. I highly recommend this company and these wonderful employees from the office staff to the onsite installers, you are not going to find better customer service and work.

The instillation of Solar panels by Future Energy Savers.

I really wasn’t expecting to have solar panels installed on my house. After having Briana with Future Energy Savers explain the benefits to me, it made sense to go ahead with the installation. She explained the benefits of Solar with the cost of energy rising yearly, with increasing costs predicted over the next decades. Future Energy Savers installed a Generac system which is well known in the industry, and has a great warranty. This company has been around for a long time, and should be for many years to come if any problems arise in the future. Mitch came over for the pre install walk through and submitted all the paperwork for all permits that were required. The installation was completed very quickly, there crew was very professional, and made the installation very unobtrusive on my homes outside wall and roof. It is now producing power, charging the batteries, and selling the extra power to the power company.

Very Impressed

We had a new roof and solar installed by Future Energy Savers and were very impressed by everything. The staff was very attentive, they give you their full attention answering all questions, and prompt in responding. From beginning to end the work was done systematically and took much less time than we had anticipated. I would strongly recommend this company.

Highly Recommend Future Energy Savers

June 19, 2025 David Voelker and Jana Hall 1261 Parkside Dr, Tracy, CA 95376 To Whom it may concern, We were in the market for solar but not informed enough to move forward. I was impressed with the gentleman I spoke with briefly at the door who was the only person willing to leave some literature with me. We had limited time in our schedule to meet with companies, so were happy when Future Energy Savers worked with our schedule to meet with us. James was personable and represented his company well. He was respectful of our time and even came back a second time to ensure that we fully understood the concisely presented information we needed for this investment. We were impressed that Future Energy Savers had been involved with energy conservation since 1978; doors, windows, roofing. All employees including a design engineer who evaluated our current system needs, installers and office staff who scheduled and coordinated the inspection and permit were Future Energy employees. We were relieved to know that the system would be fully owned by us with no problems should we decide to sell our home in the future. The federal tax credit and quickly scheduled install were selling factors as summer was approaching and we also had travel plans we needed to work around. We have been impressed with the user-friendly monitoring App. When we noticed a minor problem with the system via our app, they were able to confirm the issue from their office and schedule the repair by a Future Energy Tech within a day or two. The 30-year warranty with a smaller company was exactly what we were looking for! Thank you! Dave and Jana

We couldn't be happier

A few years back my wife and I were curious about getting solar since PG&E kept increasing their cost. We had a company come out and sit down with us but when we asked how many panels we would need the gentleman basically told us that our whole roof would be nothing but panels. Be aware that our house is barely 1000 square feet so we told him NO... Move forward to the end of September 2024 when one of FES's canvassers came to our door so I asked him a few question and we booked an appointment for a sales person to come out. A week later she showed up and spent 3 hours with us going everything that you could think of. She answered all of our questions so we set up for FES's to install our panels and we only needed 16 not a whole roof's worth. We also included some electrical upgrades and a Generac battery so we can be extra covered in case of outages. FES's handled everything from setting up PG&E to come out, to the city permits and city inspectors. The install was better than we could expect and all the gentlemen who came out were friendly and courteous. Cant wait to see what a full month's PG&E bill will look like since we haven't had the system long enough. If you are thinking of going solar I would highly recommend FES's so give them a call and experience all the good we did..

Great job

We got our Solar panels and Generac batteries professionally done by Future Energy Savers and are happy as can be due to their very friendly and professional staff both in bringing us the proposal to getting our financing to the neat and clean installation. It looks amazing and we are looking forward to the solar being installed. We would recommend them to anyone who needs roofing and solar.

Fantastic experience start to finish

We had a great experience with FES from the initial engagement, in home consultation, design and planning and installation. They made the process easy and clear and helped us quickly install our system. We love having solar and our Generac battery is amazing. We have been saved disruptions multiple times since installing and it was a great cost saver during the holiday season with the additional energy use!

Great and Easy Service

Future Energy Savers were a pleasure to work with. From the first meeting to the installation of the system the process was easy. The representative (James Krohn) that came to our house was fantastic. He walked us through the entire process and help secure the loan needed for the project. The installation was way easier than I could have imagined. It was a one-day installation with only 1hr of power down time all day. Fantastic installation crew.

Great Experience!

I met with James Krohn from the Elk Grove office on August 9, 2024, to go over solar installation options and costs. He was friendly, very informed about their product, very professional and easily explained my options and costs. I decided to get both the solar panels and Generac battery. The panels and battery were installed on August 21. Everything went smoothly and the installers were very professional. It did take a while for the city to come out and sign off on the project. It also took awhile to receive PG&E permission to start earning solar credits (October 10.) Although Future Energy has no control over the timeline for the city or PG&E they were on top of getting everyone involved as quickly as possible. I do enjoy the Generac app to see in real time the interaction between my house energy needs, solar generation, battery use, and PG&E use. Even though it probably would have been better to install solar in the spring to get the benefit (and credits) of all those sunny days I have realized savings even during this fall and approaching winter. I certainly recommend meeting with James and using Future Energy Savers for your energy saving needs.

We are pleased to share our experience with Future Energy Savers. From the initial presentation to the completion of installation, Future Energy's representatives and staff were friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We did not feel any undue pressure from them to commit to going solar. Rather, they were thorough in their explanations of the tax advantages, installation process, and, of course, the benefits of producing energy and significantly lowering our monthly SCE bill. They continue to monitor our system and have already made a service call to correct a malfunction. We are delighted with the results and would be happy to recommend Future Energy Savers to anyone considering going solar.

Overall, the process from beginning to end was phenomenal. For starters, the staff was always very friendly. They communicated with my family and I thoroughly and always made sure that I was satisfied with the plans to come. I was always notified of changes and made aware of procedures that would benefit not only the environment but my economic sustainability as well. On the day of installation, the staff was on time, calling ahead to verify and negotiate something that suited my needs. The quality of work was great. No leaks, no destroyed property, only an exceptional quality of work that continues to save me money on my monthly bills. Now that I got my first bill, I am beyond satisfied, as I'm paying little to nothing. This company takes care of everything, from working with the city and county to working with Edison and working with the bank to finance. I never had to do anything on my own. The job was so well done that it passed the inspection with flying colors. All these benefits are amazing, in which no other company gives.
