Solar Energy World

My solar adventure

Your sales department was great and so were the installers. Especially the electricians they were 5 stars in my book. Your roofers could do a bit better with their clean up and not driving in the yard. And the quality of work from the electricians was also suburb.

Every phase ,beginning to end went very smoothly.

Paul Antoshak and the install crew did an efficient and professional installation. The crew installed the 40 panels in a day and a half. The interconnection w/ BGE took 15 minutes.

Solar Energy World

After several years of researching solar solutions and too much procrastination on a decision, we finally decided it was time to join the world of clean energy. After careful analysis of over 15 solar companies, it was an easy decision to choose Solar Energy World. We believe they are the best solar company to work with, as they not only care about the quality of the product they are delivering, but they also care for their customers. And to top it off, they offer the best 30-year warranty program we saw. They monitor the panels from their offices and if they see a problem, they send someone out immediately. We could not be happier with this choice. It has been a pleasure working with Solar Energy World. Everyone—from the initial meeting with the sales representative to the installation crew—was knowledgeable, courteous, and highly competent. They met every deadline; they answered every question. I could not be more pleased with this company. Their customer service is top notch. They managed everything from design, permitting and installation. Our main point of contact throughout the process, and who I would recommend contacting if you are considering solar, is Paul Antoshak.

Great Company and Sales/Project Management Process

Nick Briggs did a great job explaining the technology and options in a way that I understood. He was responsive and the sales and installation process was excellent. Communications were great and Nick was very responsive. He "bent over backwards" to make sure we were happy with our installation. Thank you Nick and the Solar Energy World Team!

Awesome -- Start to Finish!

Daren Weatherby introduced me to the world of Solar Energy. Hew took his time and was very patient as I asked a gazillion questions. Every person that worked on my project did a superb job...answered questions and handled everything from start to finish. At the outset it was determined that I needed a new roof. I selected a new 50 year roof. It was installed without any issues. The solar panel installation and the system were all handled flawlessly. Everyone who worked on m house were quite courteous, friendly, knowledgeable and professional. during the installation stage, one of the installer came to tell me about a major problem he encountered. By the time he had come to report the problem, he had used his knowledge to repair the issue so that it ceased being an issue. At the end of the installation, he answered all my questions, show me how to operate the system and how to turn it on when it was time and demonstrated the phone app. They then totally cleaned up all their work areas. when they had gone, the only evidence that they had ever been there was the solar panels and the system all installed --ready to go! I am very pleased and have been recommending this company to all my friends.

Jack Bolel's amazing support made the project possible, especially his encouragement and advice on installing a new roof membrane. The design team incorporated my suggestions about panel layout. The installers came two days early, on a Saturday morning, to get the installation completed before weather interfered. Ari Fischel has made sure that all the final details were done with care and on time. And the panels are producing more than I had hoped for during winter months! Thank you to all the staff at Solar Energy World.

Smooth and organized!

The entire process with Solar Energy World was smooth and organized. Everyone involved - sales rep, regulatory paperwork handler, scheduler, installation project manager, and installers - were upmost professionals demonstrating courtesy and transparency. I'd heard horror stories about other solar installation companies being super disorganized after one signs on the dotted line, but the folks at Solar Energy World demonstrate the best of the industry.

Fantastic customer service and professionalism

From the beginning of the process, Ari made this seamless. We were hesitant because we didn’t want another monthly payment added to our finances. He took the time to explain how solar works and how we would actually be saving money by purchasing solar panels. He gave us several scenarios to review and designed the system. He was so patient with us as we asked so many questions. He promised the company would take care of everything from notifying the home owners association to getting the permits to the install. He was 100% correct. Everyone that we’ve needed to talk to has been friendly, helpful, and professional. He explained the referral program and we are definitely taking advantage of it! I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Ari for any questions or to refer friends and family to him so they can also benefit from Solar!

Great Solar Value, Professionally Installed and Supported

I've worked in the solar field for more than 10 years, including managing a solar company, and so I'm very familiar with solar. When we moved into our house I had too many other projects to work on, but I did get a quote from a solar installation company that didn't motivate me to move solar up on my list. That was until I asked Paul Skorochod of Solar Energy World for a quote. He visited one evening, gave us an estimated solar production for the size system we discussed, and the price. He knows all aspects of solar including solar panels, power electronics, installation, monitoring and sizing/economics. We worked out the contract (including my preference for a SolarEdge inverter because of roof/tree shading) within a week, and the installation was completed about 2 months later, as promised. The whole process from the initial visit to installation, inspection and commissioning was completely professional, and took very little of my time giving installers access to the property for the engineering and installation. My system has been operating flawlessly for just over 3 years, and it's produced about 12 MWh per year, as Paul and the SEW engineers predicted. Frankly, we have a below average house for solar because of the layout of our roofs and orientation, and the tall trees in the front and back yard. This is why I initially put solar on the back burner. However, with the installation our electric bill has been cut by well over half. With the federal and state solar incentives, this project made economic sense. It's nice to do something for the environment that turns out to also be one of our best investments.

Highly recommend Solar Energy World!

From the minute we started working with Austin at Solar Energy World the experience was nothing less than amazing. He explained all aspects of the project with us. Answered all of our questions and always made himself available if we needed clarification. Communication was second to none - huge for our family. Big thanks to the following people who worked on our job! Sales: Austin Altman Electrician: Jonathan Rivera and Richard Townsend Installers: Justin Weldon, Jerome Massam, Mike West Supervisor: Tom Klose

I have been happy with everything so far from the beginning through installation. Everything went well as planned.

first, the installation crew showed up on time, each member was knowledgeable of the system they were installing and was able to answer my questions. after the installation the cleaned up the area and removed all trash and debris

Great experience

The entire SEW team was friendly and professional. The permitting and installation process was seamless, and we are so happy with our panels!

so pleased my husband invested in solar!

I was originally against this project 100%. My husband essentially decided for us that we were going solar. To be fair, I knew nothing about it, & even today, couldn't tell you how it works. Just promises of savings & money back. I didn't believe it but we just received another check for over $200 ... We've received well over $500 for our solar credits since we went solar, plus our utility bill is WAY less than it used to be. I would definitely recommend Solar Energy World if you are considering solar. We worked with Jeff Nachman & he was great. They had to come back a few times for some minor fixes, but the process was seamless

I made the right choice!

I was hesitant to go solar for the past few years. Seemed there wasn't much monetary value in making the change. Solar Energy World was by far the best offer and made it a valuable investment. Jeff, the project manager, patiently went over every incentive available. He has been very responsive to my questions and is very knowledgeable about the solar industry! The operations and install teams were great. The panels look great on the home and are producing a ton of energy - even during the winter with the shorter days. I'm glad I chose Solar Energy World!

We’ve gone SOLAR!

We don’t see a lot of solar in The Villages around our neighborhood and so many of the systems we do see are horrible looking. They are crooked and poorly installed. That being said, our solar from Solar Energy World LOOKS AMAZING!! Our salesman Jeff walked us through every detail with pictures and comparisons which really made the process very easy to understand. The crew were courteous and cleaned up after themselves and we hardly knew they were there. If you live in The Villages and want to go solar, Solar Energy World is the way to go!! They are local and they don’t use subcontractors which was very important to us.

Excellent Product and Excellent Service

I did a lot of research before selecting a solar power system provider and it paid off. The system was installed about a year ago and we have not paid for electric since. I am so glad that we decided on Solar Energy World. They have a process that starts with requirements analysis and ends with throwing a switch which connects the system to our home and the grid. The entire process through sales, installation, and connection was seamless. The staff specifically were professional, friendly, and responded quickly and thoroughly to any questions or concerns that we raised. We were able to get a ground-mounted system which allows optimal placement with respect to the motion of the Sun. We also spec'ed the system to provide more power than the estimated requirements for our home, which is all electric, so that we can charge future electric vehicles. The additional power generated during the day goes back to the grid where it is metered and credited on our account. In the evening when it's not generating power, the excess put into the grid is pulled back and used during dark hours. Any excess that was produced and not used remains a credit on the account, and so on. At the end of every billing year any remaining credit on our account is paid back to us with a check. We received our first annual check in March of last year which included only a couple of months of credit. This year it will be a full 12 months. I never imagined that it was possible to completely generate all of our power needs and more!

SEW purchase install

Very good experience, I am in almost a full year and the system has exceeded my expectations. Working with Eric was great and the pricing was on point

Excellent

Solar Energy World clearly explained the cost and benefit up front and performed all the tasks required including HOA approval, county inspection, and utility connection.

great customer service

I was referred to Eric at Solar Energy World by my 2 neighbors who were installed about a year ago.... The entire process stayed on schedule and every time I had a question for Eric he was quick on the reply. It made me feel very comfortable and at ease. Just turned the system on a month ago but the monitoring is really cool to look at and is already producing higher than expectations even during a relatively moderate solar month. Looking forward to being 100% electric self sufficient... Highly recommend Eric and Solar Energy World...

Great Team Work

I have been impressed with everyone I have deal with at Solar Energy World. I was especially impressed with the team (Charley, Dave and company) that installed the panels. First of all the morning temperature was 15 degrees and I was expecting an early call asking to reschedule but the team was outside the house, waiting in their trucks before the scheduled time. They worked steadily and efficiently. They explained everything they were doing. A very nice group of guys.

Smooth process

From order through install, everything has been exceptionally smooth. The installers were able to install 41 panels in only 2 days, and were very professional and accommodating. They wore masks in the home as we had requested, and cleaned up after themselves very well. Jeff Nachman was our sales representative, and everything he promised was delivered upon. I honestly did not think the install timeframe he gave would be hit, due to seeing all of the supply chain issues, and the shortage of skilled labor. We have had a lot of work done on our house in the last year, so I was prepared to be let down. Not only did they hit his estimated timeframe, but they even beat it by a week or two. I cannot sing the praises of Jeff’s approach and Solar Energy World’s follow through enough. We highly recommend them.

Great experience dealing with Solar Energy World

our 5.59kw panels from 10 years earlier from Tesla weren't proving to be enough and so I was looking for additional panels. Tesla wont' let me use SREC which was a must and so I started shopping. Solar Energy world turned out to be the best options available.

EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE

This company definitely knows the definition of Customer Service. 1) My rep is very responsive; even when I send him text messages in the evening due to some questions that I had about the system. He also never seems to get tired of answering my questions. 2) The customer service scheduling rep made sure I knew about the scheduling changes by calling me even after she emailed me the information. I was glad because I hadn't read my email, yet. 3) The installers were very professional. They even vacuumed up where they made a mess by drilling into the panel. When I lost electricity in my office, they were very quick to resolve the issue. I will definitely recommend this company to my friends and family.

Professional, Timely, Responsive

Solar Energy World installed solar panels on our roof in December. Every encounter was professional, curteous, knowledgeable, prompt. When we first met with John Crill, he walked us through our options and answered all our questions. Then once we initiated the contract process, he walked us through the contract, set up the financing options, the MEA grant, etc. When the day came for the installers to install the panels, they arrived on time and worked all day installing our panels and electrical setup for the 1 1/2 days of the job and returned later with the remaining critter guard left to be installed. Inspection, connection with the utility, all were handled by solar energy world and all has gone smoothly.
