I can not say enough good things about my experience with this company. During the initial call, we have provided the necessary information and made sure to take the time to explain and answer all my questions. Once I decided to go with them they worked closely with me on the layout. The installation crew worked efficiently and masterfully to position the panels on our roof. I am very happy with my new system.

Girish B., 2 weeks ago
NRG was great during the install process, but since then customer service has been disappointing to say the least. I have been having communication issues between the Inverter and their (or SolarEdge's) systems. Due to this, my solaredge monitoring app does not show any production results. I have a LTE antenna on my inverter but for some reason NRG did not enable/activate the Wi-Fi connection. I have called them at least 3 times to figure out the issue and get the Wi-Fi enabled, but no luck. They asked me the reboot the inverter and wait 4-8 hrs to see if the problem self-corrected. Well, that did not work. I asked them how to enable/activiate the Wi-Fi connection on the inverter and they told me they did not know how to do that, which I find hard to believe. I looked up the info on the web and it is pretty easy to do, but requires an installer account for the SetApp from SolarEdge. I tried to contact solaredge, but was redirected to NRG. So, the issue is still pending with no clear path to resolution. I am quite frustrated at this point.
