Highly Recommend

Making the switch to solar felt like a big leap, but Greene Tech Renewable Energy made it a total moonshot! From the initial consultation to the final rooftop flourish, they were professional, informative, and utterly transparent. I was nervous about navigating the solar world, but their team patiently answered all my questions. Choosing the right system with battery backup was crucial for me. I wanted energy independence and peace of mind. Greene Tech Renewable Energy didn't just show me fancy brochures; they tailored a system to my specific needs and budget. We even geeked out over the real-time monitoring app, which feels like having a tiny, solar-powered superhero in my pocket. Installation day was a symphony of efficiency. The crew arrived on time, were courteous and respectful, and left everything immaculate. They even explained the process step-by-step, like patient teachers deciphering the magic of sunshine into electricity. And the best part? My electric bill is practically singing opera now! My dependence on the grid has plummeted, and the battery backup ensures uninterrupted power, even when the clouds roll in. It's like having my own mini power plant humming away on my roof. But it's not just about the savings. There's a real sense of pride in harnessing the sun's power, knowing I'm making a positive impact on the environment. Greene Tech Renewable Energy helped me turn that aspiration into reality, and for that, I'm eternally grateful. If you're considering joining the solar revolution, take my word for it: Greene Tech Renewable Energy is the rocket fuel you need! They're not just selling panels; they're selling a brighter future, and I couldn't recommend them more highly. Five shining stars out of five!

Excellent work, professional team, competitive pricing

Ian, Rebecca, and the GTRE team throughout were a joy to work with. Their pricing was competitive, the team had clear communication throughout, and the installation was executed very well. The attention to detail was phenomenal. Every conduit line is *chef's kiss* straight and even. The installation looks great and works great. I will absolutely return to GTRE if we ever need to expand our system.

Excellent Service and Support

Ian and his team installed a 9.6kW Solar Edge system in our home this past September. It was fairly complicated, integrating an existing whole house generator, the Solar Edge System, an EV Charger and two batteries. What I really enjoyed was the education that accompanied the hardware. They patiently educated me in operating the system as well as the nuisance of living in a solar first home. Simple things like when to run the dishwasher, or when to charge the car were extremely helpful. All in all it was a great experience.

Great job! A+++!

We highly recommend Greene Tech. They did a professional turn-key job, and showed us how to use the app. They explained a lot that we didn't understand. We had planned on putting the panels on the ground by our house, but they helped us realize it was much better cost-wise and space-wise on the roof. With a hip roof, they are hardly noticeable. A+++! Thanks!!

Great Job, Very knowledgeable

Ian designed a great system for our home, made sure we made changes for our electrical panel and generator prior to installation. Kept me posted on the wait time for equipment. When the equipment arrived, he scheduled the installation and was here every day it didn't rain. System works great and passed inspection with no issues. Ian is also professional and answers all of your questions well. Thanks Ian!

Highly recommended

Ian and his team were great to work with. Very professional and easy to deal with. Kept us informed regularly and readily answered any questions. While there were delays, with so many supply issues I'm very happy with the final timeline. That is why I gave 5 stars despite the delays for my "On schedule" rating. With regard to cost, no other vendor was really close. Not only that, no other vendor gave me such confidence that the job would be done correctly. The work was done to a high standard. Not only was cost kept in mind, but he long term viability of the system was considered. Lastly, everyone I dealt with during the installation process had a very high opinion of Ian and his team. That says volumes in my experience.

Energy Independence Thanks To GTRE

Last year GTRE installed our complete solar system with 24 solar panels producing 9.8 kW and 2 LG Li-Ion batteries with 32 kWh storage capacity. Our latest electric bill was $35 at a time when energy costs are probably skyrocketing. The entire installation inside & out is very clean, Ian and his crew were wonderful to work with, and Ian went above & beyond obtaining products despite global manufacturing & supply issues. GTRE has given us a large measure of energy independence in these uncertain times, we're very glad we found them, and we recommend them to anyone.

Thrilled with my new solar installation!

I am absolutely thrilled with my recent solar installation - a 10.08 kW system with 9.3 kWh battery! Ian was great to work with from day one; his quote was clear and informative, with all of the data I needed to move forward with the project with confidence. The installation was clean and efficient and the quality of the equipment and install drew compliments from the inspectors. Ian has also been very responsive to my post-installation questions and new-owner troubleshooting. I would recommend GTRE without hesitation!

Exceed expectations

Ian was super responsive and patient with me as I sent him questions about the 10k Solar Edge and LG Chem battery system he recommended. So it wasn't a surprise when he and his crew did a super professional job on the install and testing. What I didn't expect, though, was that I'd actually enjoy having Ian and his crew around! Great sense of humor and, based on the way he ran his crew and the way they responded to him, a very effective leader. Also, when supply chain issues arose he went out of his way to search for and locate a battery for my system when the originally-ordered battery was hung-up in transit. There's a lot of other specifics I could provide, but this says it all: I once caught him on the roof re-adjusting a whole row of panels to insure that they were in perfect visual alignment with the last panel he'd installed in that row. It has only been off by a small fraction of an inch.

OUTSTANDING!

Ian and his crew were professional, knowledgeable, courteous and seem to genuinely enjoy what they do. He kept us well informed with scheduling, delays (due to supply issues) and other pertinent solar information through his newsletters. Concerned that all those panels would look like it was too much, we were pleasantly surprised after they were installed and realized this was the right move for us. Looking forward to lower electric bills and backup when the power goes out. Highly recommended, both GTRE and solar!

Experienced, very knowledgeable and customer focused

When I started looking for a solar company to add solar to my house, my top requirements were experience and they also had to be knowledgeable enough to answer all of my detailed questions. There are several companies out there, but for this region, no one is better than Ian at GTRE! Ian took a lot of time to develop a proposal and answer all of my questions (and I had a lot!). I followed Ian during the installation and he was extremely knowledgeable with every aspect of the system. We are so happy with our system and can report $0 for our electric bill! During the summer we are building credits with our electric provider that we can use in months with less sun. So if you are looking for experience, knowledge and someone dedicated to their customers - I would encourage you to call Ian at GTRE!

Superior experience, quality equipment and installation

Had received bids elsewhere which were unsuitable, one out of Knoxville sent up red flags, with immediate distrust/slimy...gave high bid, premium prices for install and equipment not up to my standards/requirements, and sales person was arrogant and high-pressure. Ian Huddleston with Greene Tech Renewable Energy was the exact opposite. First contact/meeting was impressed with knowledge, experience, presentation and bid/equipment to be obtained high quality, with excellent and professional bid for complete install. Performed solar audit on rooftop with proper software to evaluate and verify site suitability. Our install situation NOT typical...two 200 amp services were first updated to single 400 amp service meter/drop with two disconnects/service panels. Installation completed with high attention to detail, and thought given to final appearance and outcome. Ian's team's work is absolutely up to the high standards I hoped for and expected. There have been issues, but each one has been investigated, with contact made with SolarEdge support to ensure all is correct and to figure out how to rectify situation, and Ian has been responsive and out on site to make sure system performs as expected, despite the issues encountered. Even typical installs may have issues, ours being unique had unique problems that needed attention, and we have been extremely pleased with GTRE's desire to be sure we are happy with system, and they are happy with system, and that it is performing as it should be.

The Best Solar Energy Company in TN

We spent several weeks investigating and interviewing several solar energy companies across TN from Nashville to Johnson City. After receiving quotes and a comparison of installation cost, we decided on Green Tech. It was one of the best decisions we could have made. The only negative is that we had to wait a couple of months for the install because of Ian’s injury. Frankly, we were so impressed with the quality of his work that we have scheduled him to install solar air conditioning for our home this spring. I just hope he can move us up on his busy schedule. schedule.

One of the most professional companies in East TN

I had GTRE out to do a 9.3KWh system with LG Chem Storage. GTRE was just great from quote to site survey to project completion, everything first class and professional. The state inspector had nothing but great things to say about their workmanship. From a customers point of view the install was super clean and they worked hard to address all of my cosmetic concerns.

Knowledgeable, efficient, good communication, reasonably priced

This was a relatively large system (30 KW) grid tied with no batteries. Ninety seven panels on the main house and detached garage (linked). Ian kept me informed as to his schedule and when he would be here to do the work. The work proceeded smoothly, with no extras during the work, and the system immediately worked and passed inspection upon completion. Ian is fair and good for his word, in my experience. (I am a former home builder and civil engineer and respect good work).

Totally professional with craftsmanship.

I have been in precision manufacturing for my career and tend to be quite fussy about others doing work in my home. Greene Tech were the first and only solar installers I met with as I was immediately impressed with Ian the owner of Greene Tech. The system was quickly sized up and quoted and has been running flawlessly for four months. While I was very impressed with Ian the real brains of the operation seems to be the SolarEdge inverter. It is just simply amazing.

DYI Hybrid

Ian worked with me as I did as much of the install as I could manage. I mounted the rails and the panels and did the trenching to the power pole. He designed the system, ordered all the materials, installed the optimizers, ran all the wires and and hooked everything up to the inverter. He also coordinated everything with the local power company. He was very knowledgeable. He proved this by troubleshooting a ground fault issue that was secondary to my carelessness. He also proved very patient and encouraging with my DYI efforts. He followed through promptly on all his commitments. I strongly recommend GTRE for any size solar project.
