Andrew Gryeir

Thanks for working out all the details with us to make the good decision to install Solar Panels. We really appreciate your personal, thoughtful service. We think the system will pay for itself more rapidly than was presented to us. The electric rates are rising quite rapidly and having at least partial solar has made us less concerned.

We purchased a solar panel system in 2025, having great experience with Zach Kalb, the installation, and administration teams. Enjoy the “green experience” and saving.

Loving Solar and SEW

A friend related that he had solar installed on his home so I asked if he was satisfied with the process and if so would he give me the installers’ name. So with this information I called Solar Energy World to set up an appointment. Brad Henderson was the salesman who came to our house and introduced us to the opportunities available through solar. Brad was very knowledgeable and thorough in his presentation, so much so that we agreed to the installation that day! The process was easy and the job was completed within the projected timeframe. After we received our PTO (Permission to Operate), we turned it on and the array worked beautifully! We absolutely recommend getting in touch with Solar Energy World to make an appointment with Brad and having this install completed as soon as possible! Electricity costs are only going to increase!

Rob Sherman is our representative.

Rob is very knowledgeable of the workings of how solar works. We knew nothing about solar and Rob explained and answered our questions. Rob is very friendly and personable.

We chose Solar Energy World because they were able to package replacement of our main electrical panel with the solar installation at a good price and subject to the 30% tax credit. Taneeka Staples and Dawson were both excellent at keeping in touch and making things right when there were problems (and there were some) with the installation, but everything was properly fixed and attended to.

Great company

Solar panels were installed by Solar Energy World over a year ago. Everything has been working well. My agent is Andrew Grygier. He has been extremely professional. He responds to any questions within minutes, via texts, emails, calls. He is very knowledgeable, and he follows through very quickly when questions should be answered by another member of the team. He is still answering questions - about back up batteries, for example - more than a year after the install was completed.

Amazing Support from Field Energy Advisor

Solar Energy World updated our roof and installed a 19 panel system on our townhouse. I'd particularly like call out the exceptional support we got from our field manager Gregory Uhas. Gregory was responsive, had answers to all our questions, and advocated tirelessly on our behalf when we ran into problems/delays. During the initial phase of the project Gregory helped us take advantage of both state and federal credits/grants to make the system as economical as possible. SEW does 90% of the paperwork for you thank goodness. We signed in September, and while some issues with our HOA delayed things for a few month, SEW put together an submission packet for our HOA and got things through. Despite the delay, the install team was able to get the system in before the end of the year to qualify for the expiring tax credit. Also want to shout out the panel installation team and electrician for professionalism and workmanship.

On-Time, As-Advertised, and Working Well

Rob has been great to work with through the whole process, always communicative and helpful. I'm happy that the work was completed (just) before the end of the year, as promised, to qualify for the tax credit. The system seems to be performing well, despite all the weather we've had lately. The biggest benefit, though, has been that they've handled all the paperwork, certifications, coordination with the HOAs, everything, and they've kept me in the loop every step of the way as those checkboxes were filled.

This past summer I met with Andy G for a consult to place solar panels. Andy was prompt, friendly, professional and easy to work with. He provided me with information I wanted to hear and information I needed to hear. The entire process from top to bottom was flawless and easy and best of all, I have a bill I can rely on to be the same for most months of the year and I love predictability.

We just had our solar system installed by Solar Energy World and couldn't be happier. From our initial consultation with Andy Grygier to the final installation with the crew, the entire process was seamless and professional. They handled all the permitting and paperwork, which made things stress-free for us. The installers were courteous, efficient, and cleaned up everything afterward. Our system is now up and running, and we are already seeing our energy bill drop. Highly recommend!"

Great to work with

I had received multiple quotes and decided Solar Energy World was the best for me. The pricing & systems for all quotes were quite similar but the way the companies handled themselves were very different. My sales rep Bobby Lyons was super friendly, personable, and did not pressure me into anything I wasn't comfortable with. I was trying to get everything done in time before the tax credits expired before the end of the year but realized that was probably not possible. Bobby & his team worked with me every step of the way to find the best solution. I just had my installation done & it looks great. The install team was fast & professional. I am very glad I chose Solar Energy World & look forward to more freedom from the power companies grasp on my finances.

Solar Install - 2025

Highly recommend SEW and the team for an outstanding job from start to finish. I had a lot of misgivings about going solar but I took plunge. From the initial conversation to completion, Field Energy Advisor Andy Grygier was instrumental in the success of the project. He coordinated from start to finish and was very responsive (even on weekends). Kudos to the team.

From start to finish

I had done a lot of research before choosing Solar Energy World. For me the deciding factor was their service. I have already had to communicate with them several times and most of the times they were one step ahead of me. They have remote access to my system and contacted me before I even knew there was an issue. And every single time I contacted my representative Damien was very responsive. Same day he had an answer. The few times he had to do some research he promptly followed up with updates. Thank you Damien for your professionalism

The sun works for me.

I have been involved with Solar Energy World for some time. In April,2025 I had to put a new roof on my home. At that time I upgraded the solar panels that were removed. I meet a knowledgable sales person Ms. Gabby Delgado. I got more information from her about solar panels. I also purchased a Franklin batter which will keep my hoe running for days whit power outages. I was very pleased with the way she was able to communicate difficulties with my installation. She is honest, sincere and dependable. Those are great qualities for as solar sales representative.

Excellent Communication and Customer Service

I worked with Andy Grygier (sales) to determine if solar was a good option for my family. Andy has offered clear and timely communication throughout the process. From initial consult and estimates to the contract and installation, Andy has provided clear overview of timelines and expectations. Andy is also responsive and quick to answer questions. Beyond Andy, the installation occurred ahead of schedule and the technicians were professional. The technicians called each morning to confirm their arrival time. They were careful during the installation process and provided updates as they worked. The inspection was scheduled quickly and passed without issue. I am excited to start receiving massive savings on our BGE bills. I appreciate Andy and the team for their efforts to make solar a reality for our family.

Great Service Rep.

Due to the repeal of tax credits to encourage environmentally sound energy production Solar Energy World was swamped with orders for new systems. Despite this they manage to install a solar system at my house before the tax credits expire. Andy Grygier did a super job keeping me informed on the progress of my system installation. He always answers the phone and keeps me updated on the project.

REPAIRS

They were good about installing the system, but when there is a problem, it is taking them 3 months just to send a technician out to us, and they are charging $149/hour including their transportation back and forth! They have us over a barrel since it is their system. I'd look elsewhere.

Very good experience and process

I began my solar journey getting far too many quotes from local, regional, and national companies. With an absurd amount of quotes and different equipment, I finally got in touch with Nick at Solar Energy World. While each company had their own way or presenting the data, equipment, and expected savings, Nick was the first to really just talk to me as a person and try to understand what I already knew and where gaps were in my knowledge. At no point did I ever feel pressured to make a decision, rather he just became someone that knew a ton about solar that I could ask questions. My personal style of understanding a new and expensive technology is to ask a ridiculous amount of questions and find very specific and detailed answers. Nick was able to do that for me with ease and without frustration. Rarely did I find something he didn't know off the top of his head and in a few cases where he didn't immediately have the answer, he checked in with the engineering team to get an accurate response. Once I decided to move forward with the quote, SEW worked behind the scenes to get everything lined up with the county and power company. Occasionally I'd get a question or two from the back office to clarify something they needed for permits but that was really it until they needed time from me for scheduling. Install of my system took about three days with racking and panels being installed on the first. Part of my installation also required replacement of my main breaker panel - something independently seen by another electrician at a later date that noted it was a great panel and the work was done well. After install was just a matter of waiting until the utility company gave permission to turn system on. Once that came in, Solar Energy World communicated via email and phone call to let me know we were ready to turn on and offered to guide me through powering up the system by flipping a breaker. The email they sent had example photos as well to help guide. Overall it was a pleasant and streamlined experience with a warranty better than anyone else that quoted me. Given they are a larger regional company I thought they were most likely to be resilient over the years than some smaller and the much larger national companies which were already struggling some.

They were really great. Had them up in no time. Guys were really friendly and answered all my questions about what they were doing. Also my salesman (Chance Minnich) was great with keeping me updated on the process. Great people to work with. Ask for Chance to talk to about your system if you want one.

A Sales Rep Who Truly Earned My Trust

My experience with Solar Energy World was made exceptional because of my sales rep, Travis Kent. I’ll be honest - I put Travis THROUGH THE WRINGER. I used AI tools extensively to question and challenge contract language, processes, and assumptions, and I had a lot of concerns going in. Through it all, Travis was patient, transparent, and genuinely focused on helping me understand what I was signing without rushing me or brushing anything aside. The initial contract through IGS Solar didn’t leave me feeling comfortable, and instead of pushing forward anyway, Travis stayed engaged. When GoodLeap became available with much more detailed and consumer-friendly terms, he proactively reached back out. That moment spoke volumes and completely changed my confidence level. He was always responsive, helpful, and professional, and never made my questions feel like a burden. What could have been a stressful experience turned into a positive one because he earned my trust every step of the way. If you value transparency and a rep who truly cares about the customer experience, I highly recommend working with Travis Kent.

Thank you Steve and Solar Energy

Steve Fulginiti made our solar purchase stress-free. From the initial consultation to the final account setup, his expertise and friendly approach were exactly what we needed. He was incredibly patient with us regarding our project's timeline and was ready to hit the ground running the moment we were. Even after the initial setup, we reached out to him for various things throughout the process, and he was always very responsive and helpful. We love our new setup—thanks for everything, Steve!

If you're looking to save on your monthly utility bill, I highly recommend giving them a try. Jacques Frink and the install team at SolarvEnergy World for designing and installing a robust solar energy system under significant time constraints. I was pleased that they kept every promise made during the sales process and am looking forward to system operation once our utility company swaps out the meter. Jacques has been great to work with on two solar projects on my properties.
