Kota Energy Group

Job well done!

We recently completed a project with Kota solar and were incredibly happy with the whole process from start to finish. The project included a roof with gutters in our installation which will go towards the 26% tax credit if it’s bundled together.. Austin Collandra our sales rep went over all the details of the return-on-investment strategies, Tax credits and financing options to ensure we knew exactly was involved front start to finish. Once the project started he was there during the whole process and made sure we were 100% satisfied.. After the project was completed, Austin has followed up several times to make sure all is well. As a realtor, I am very picky on who I use and refer since it will reflect on me if it goes bad. In the end, I can say I am very happy with my overall experience and you will be too.

Adom Rolette was AWESOME

We were referred to Adom Rolette and we are very happy with the experience. From the first phone call to set up an appointment to setting up the app after our system was turned on, Adom was very responsive and answered all our questions. Adom made the process smooth and easy. I have to say that everyone that we dealt with was great and very professional - Adom Rolette (Solar Broker), Yousef Habuni (Sr Project Manager), Jonathan Hopkins and entire the installation crew.

5 star experience all the way around

Having previously worked in the solar industry, I had pretty high standards to meet when I was ready to have solar installed on my own home... and Kota met them all! Pablo was great to work with, and handled all the details of our project so that I didn't have to bat an eye. He was extremely knowledgeable and kept me up to date on all of the details. Everyone else on the Kota team was equally professional and on top of it, from the surveyor to the installers. They even sent someone out to meet with the city inspector to ensure that we passed inspection... so when the inspector decided we'd have to trim a majorly overgrown tree that was growing into our panel in order to pass, Kota's team was there to immediately fix the issue. We're now looking to get solar installed on our second home... and when we realized that the roof needed to be done first, Pablo was able to connect us with a roofer and has taken over managing all of the extra details to get the roof done so that we can make the switch to solar. The best part? We were paying less than $50/month in one home and over $250/month in the other... and in both cases, we're immediately saving money. Go green, save money, become energy independent... that's a win-win-win in my book.

Amazing customer relations and workmanship!

We had considered solar before but had concerns about our roof. Kota was able to remove our roof tiles, remove debris and replace the tiles before installing the solar panels. Jake was fabulous, answered ever question and insured that each step of the project was completed promptly in spite of weather delays.

Solar by KOTA was a great experience

Before KOTA, solar companies turned us down. The hill, the roof, the vents, and more became disqualifying obstacles. Then Nathan DeLeeuw rang my doorbell. This nice, polite young man brought KOTA to neatly sweep away every obstacle. Their process was easy, quick, and as quiet as possible for banging on my roof. They took care of the legal paperwork and activated our solar system. They were supportive at every step of the way. I highly recommend KOTA Energy Group for a positive solar acquisition experience.

Very professional

We decided to make the switch with Kota Energy Group after Taylor Blackmore helped us make sense of the numbers. Not only did Taylor help us with financing our system, he was there every step of the process. He is very professional and courteous, with a ton of expertise in the field. Even after the installation was complete, he was right there to help us navigate through the dark waters of the LADWP. We know we made the right decision and we’re happy we did it with Taylor and Kota!

Good Service with KOTA in Pleasanton

Good and clear step by step progress provided by KOTA, and the young sales Rep Matteo. Installation service was done fantastic and great. Few issues I pointed out after installation and their CEO and Matteo contacted me directly and sincerely apologized for the issues and agreed to address it. Also they will monitor my system production and address any issue as needed. Good company and service overall.

Kota and Ben - Great Customer Service!

My husband I had just moved into our new home this past summer, and when we recieved the first few PG&E bills, we were shocked! We wanted to look into getting solar, but didn't know where to start. Luckily, Ben knocked on our door one evening and educated us on the pros of going Solar. He was thorough in his explaination and very patient in answering all of our questions (we had a lot!) From start to finish Ben made the process seamless, constantly checking in with us along the way. His communication was great! We Highly recommend Ben and Kota if you're looking to go Solar!

Love My Solar

What a difference customer service makes! On top of getting solar panels and saving a lot of money on electric bills, I made a friend. James Snyder, my rep, was referred to me by friends who had James as their rep when they had solar panels installed last year. Still, I obtained 3 estimates, as recommended. And after deliberating which company to choose, I went with Kota because of James. I can tell he truly enjoys his job, enjoys helping people, believes in his products and is patient to answer any questions and persistent enough without being overbearing. Pricing is very competitive. I also did my own research and I believe I got the best products for a very good price! Everyone from Kota, including the installers and the technician who came to make sure we passed the city inspection, was very professional. There was a delay in getting my solar panels online (there was an error which was fixed as soon as it was discovered, plus a couple of hiccups in scheduling the inspection) but I am so happy with the service. I also have to commend Mandi, who handled getting the Permission to Operate. She was responsive and patient. Thank you James, Mandi and Kota Energy!

Kota & Ben are awesome

I had no plans of getting solar installed, but when Ben told me about it and showed me what I could be paying without solar (in a few years), I was sold. He was professional, prompt, and very patient.

Going solar with Kota was a no brainer

I had been shopping around for solar panels for a while, Kota really blew me away with the offers they had, no other company had a 25yr 1.99% financial offer with the lowest prices for Solaria panels (absolute best panels on the market) no other company can compete with these offers.

The Best Experience from start to finish!

I shopped several companies, Kota Energy Group was able to give me the equipment, and finance option for me and my families situation. The process was simple and the rep was on top of everything and kept me informed. Also my install took 3 weeks!

Great solar experience!

I had a great experience with Kristian and the Kota Energy group and the installation of my solar system. I obtained several quotes from a range of companies, and Kristian was the most thorough in developing a system and a competitive price. The application and installation went smoothly and the system was operating in just a few weeks. They use American panels which I liked. I would recommend Kota highly for your solar installation. Joan S

Thankful we chose this company.

Sales person is professional and knowledgeable, Kristian. Pricing is great! Process has been easy. Installation was quick, neat. All around great experience. Happy to refer them.

Best experience

We have been looking into solar for a while now but what made us really take action was having KOTA knock at our door. Kristian and Maximo took the time to go through all of our concerns and explained everything in detail so we knew what solar was all about and how KOTA could help us make the switch to solar. We know now that if we or my children go to sell the home one day it will be the premier property on the market as it is an asset on our home that has added over $15000 of direct equity to our home. Kristian & Maximo have continually followed up with us and constantly updated us with each step of the process and with each step everyone was on time. The financing numbers we looked at were great and gave us savings from day one where with each payment we are working towards owning our system and never paying an electric bill again. Lastly, beyond them following up with us each step of the way they brought over gifts and made in-home visits throughout the process. When we initially sat down they brought us these custom KOTA cookies with our name on them and when they brought a gift for the system finally being installed, let's just say Leslie's jaw dropped to the floor. Leslie is the biggest Tigger fan in the world with almost every piece of Tigger memorabilia possible. So when Kristian brought by the gift we were stunned to see it was a vintage 1970's Tigger cookie jar. And now it is heer most prized Tigger possession in her collection. We appreciate Kristian, Maximo and KOTA'S professionalism and their dedication to providing the best customer experience in going solar. We couldn't be happier and can't wait to geet our first bill back from PG&E showing all of those PG&E line items being completely wiped away. Thank you to Kristian , Maximo and KOTA if you want to hear about our experience please reach out to me as they give a check for an referral we send them.

Matteo Gazzale

Had the opportunity to be helped by Matteo Grazzale. I appreciated his response to all of my concerns. His knowledge and sunny disposition made my transition to solar seamless.

Satisfied with new installation

We just had out solar installed, and we were really impressed with Pablo & Trent. They let me take my time to decide if this was something right for our family, & I felt no pressure to "hurry up" before making my decision. The process was fast and they communicated well before and during installation. They were patient while I was taking time to decide where I wanted the panels installed. Their explanation was thorough and helpful. Also, I preferred the look over these panels. I had an overall great experience.

Matteo Gazzale

His timing was impeccable! Just finished talking about solar with my mom and sister and he knocks on my door the same evening! Made the whole process to go solar seamless. Everything happened so much faster than expected and quicker than they were even expecting to happen!

The CEO of Kota contacted me

The CEO of Kota contacted me and was very understanding of my problem and went out of his way to make things right Thank you Jack C.

Brandon at Kota was super helpful

My initial discussion with Brandon @,Kota Energy Group convinced me they were the company Togo with for my solar project. I'd researched the benefits and they had the best informed presentation. Easy to work with team, great final equipment install. 16 panels and LG back up battery. My first two bills ,one in May , and June were zero electrical charge to PGE. I've already saved $250. At this rate my investment is paid in less than 10 years. Couldn't be happier.

Valuable Service

When Scott made his pitch for solar energy he sounded very informative and break down for me! He catered to my need for simplicity without trying to go above and beyond. Customer service from him has been great. Although I'm still waiting for the solar energy to be turned on at my house, it has been a good experience overall. Just wish this pandemic would allow things to progress faster.

Very Happy with my Decision

I first met Jim Marcil from Kota Energy at an Art and Wine festival shortly after the rolling blackouts and going solar had definitely been on my mind. I was a little timid about the overall cost of installation and not sure if my roof received enough daytime sun to make going solar worth it. Jim was enthusiastic and knowledgeable and answered my questions with confidence and ease. I felt comfortable and well taken care of from the beginning. Now thanks to Kota I'm am prepared for an economical and environmentally conscious future for myself and my family.

Best decision I made to go solar

I've been shopping around for the best installer and as a skeptical person, I've compared rates and warranties and everything else about solar from different companies. The best thing about my transaction with the Kota reps is that they don't twist your arm to push you into buying a solar system. I know I wanted solar but it had to be the right people that I would deal with. The warranties they offer gives me peace of mind that if something was to happen, they got it! So far, it's been 8 months since I've had my system and I know I'm set for the summer. Kota Energy Group by far supercedes my expectations. They got my system installed quickly, no hassle, no money down, and most of all I'm reaping the benefits of having control of my energy bill.

Get solar now, don't sweat the details (that's Kota's job)

I worked with Kota to have solar panels installed on my house recently. It's an involved process; you need to have electricians/engineers and people with expertise to evaluate the feasibility of your site, loads of paperwork to get it approved, site checks pre-installation and finally a team of people to install. The great thing about Kota is that they handle all those things. They are transparent about everything that's happening, but all you need to do is approve and they take care of all the many details. They could not make the process easier. Given the economic advantages (along with the environmental), Kota makes going solar an absolute no-brainer.

Charles W. at KOTA got us what we wanted; NO hassles

Looked around a bit before KOTA. Charles taught me a LOT about solar and made sure we both understood what I wanted. He made it happen without my doing much at all. After the install he dropped by and made sure we were comfortable with the system and then called a few weeks later to make sure we didn't need anything. People at KOTA are great and Charles is Awesome! Thinking of solar? Talk with Charles W. at KOTA.
