Professional
From the first person I spoke with down to the install team, everyone was professional and helpful. Seth Tobin was our rep and he kicked things off by walking us through the process. Seth gave us payment options and made the process painless. We had an awesome install team that worked in the rain. And, Michael has been amazing in the final stages of getting our system turned on. We have already recommended Solar Energy to our neighbors.

If you want the best solar deal in town and great customer service, look for Fonzie (Alfonzo Rodriguez). He is the BEST!!! He was very informative, helpful, and friendly. I can tell that he is detailed oriented, committed and hard-working. He even helped us find a good home insurance. The whole process was stress free because he thrives to provide the best customer service experience. Thank you so much Fonzie.

An excellent solar energy company
David Garcia (the sales person) gave me an outstanding presentation. David helped understand the advantages of installing a solar system on my house. Also, he clearly explained the whole process. The panel installation was completed quickly and professionally. The crew was excellent and knowledgeable. They answered all my questions. The job was done with the expected quality. I recommend Solar Energy World to anyone who's looking for a fair and honest company!!

GREAT EXPERIENCE
Solar Energy is in NJ but services PA also. My journey to deciding to go with solar and to go with Solar Energy World. My neighbor got solar on her house. I had a lot of questions and she referred me to her company. I looked at this reviews and was not happy with other customers experience. So, I ventured out on my own looking for a solar company. I found Solar Energy World and I liked the reviews. I was so nervous about going solar and was very much on the fence if I should make this choice. I had a lot of questions that needed to be answered before I decide to go solar. When calling the office to schedule an appointment I told them I will not sign anything on first appointment, I just have questions and want information. Carson Landis was our sales guy. He came on time and on date as expected. He was very polite, patient and informative. I didnt have very many questions after he did his presentation. However, I did have follow up questions and he was happy to stay and answer them. I did tell him that I would not sign any agreement that night, He did not pressure us to sign or do anything. He was just happy to answer questions inform us so we can make the right decision for our family. By the end of the night, you would think my husband and Carson were good friends. He was very personable, and it didn't hurt that he use to play for Penn State, My husbands favorite team. About a week later, we were ready to move forward and everyone was there to help us at every turn. I never felt like once the papers are signed we are on our on our own. The installation was breeze and very nice men that was doing this for us. They cleaned up after themselves and was very efficient. Solar Energy stayed with us through the whole process, even up to the moment we flip the switch to turn on our Solar for the very first time. Carson and the ladies in the office was there to help us through it all... we figured today we will be saving $70.00+ a month in electricity and our electric company will be continuing raising their rates while we will be paying the exact same for the next 25 years. BEST DECISION WE MADE FOR OUR FUTURE, We appreciate everything you have done for us. Thank you. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Solar Energy World Is an excellent company to work with!.
I am so satisfied. I have been handing out JD's (our sales rep.) card. I live in Altamonte Springs Florida. Their workmanship is excellent. The gentlemen who did the work were excellent. JD was excellent and informed me of everything that was going on. The people working for them are knowledgeable and clean up everything. I can not complain. They did everything that was on the plans. It looks much better than any other people that I know with solar as I have been looking into solar for 10 years and have done my homework. The price came out to be what JD told me I would have to pay . I an very satisfied. They did an excellent job installing it with no damage. It looks neat on the roof, and I like it. I have sent everyone I know their information., and I have had a lot of people stop and take their number off the sign

Zach was my SEW contact and provided excellent service and responsivity throughout the project. I put in an online inquiry on a Saturday afternoon and he was at my house on Monday for an in person meeting. That kind of personal touch and quickness was how Zach did business throughout the sales process and into after sales and construction. I'd definitely recommend SEW to folks, and Zach was a big part of that.

Solar installation
My wife Stacey and I have decided to go solar, My neighbor recommended us to call solar energy world.I called a few days later and was asked a few questions. And was told I would receive a call back the next day by a consultant. The next day I received a call from Sean Grieves, who answer all our questions we have had, and set an appointment up for later in the week, Sean came out to our house and explained the benefits of solar soup to nuts. By the end of our appointment my wife and I already made our minds up to sign a contract with solar energy. Sean was very knowledgeable on solar. And has touch base with us through out the inspection process. We are very please with our installation and product. We have referred a neighbor and will continue to refer solar energy world.

A Team of Professionals - Great Results
I contacted Solar Energy World for an installation quote based on positive reviews on this site, and after filtering for size (I want a company big enough to back up their warranty claims). I had interviewed 2 other companies (including one very large installer, with a national footprint) and had been very disappointed hype-driven sales pitch that didn't spend enough time looking at the specifics of my house (amount of southern exposure, potential tree coverage, roof size, electrical usage, etc). Brent Cotton was the sales contact for me - he was knowledgeable and capable of answering my questions mid-presentation, and then reshaping his presentation to address my concerns and interests. He was also very attentive to my interests in financing options and pricing. In the end he offered a very compelling price, with the system I wanted (production capacity, inverter type, etc). After that it was a pretty streamlined process. I have an HOA that needed to approve this, so that inserted a bit more into the process, but they handled that for me. The engineering review and design was completed quickly (less than a week), and getting on the schedule was fast as well. The actual install was fast - 2 days for 38 panels on a 2 story house. It was completed by two 2-man teams working in parallel - one working on the electrical side and the other installing the panels. Probably the longest wait was for utility approval (TECO) - not the fault of Solar Energy World. I've had the system for a year and it has produced over 20 MWh. I qualified for the 30% tax credit as well. Understanding your electrical usage and **the pricing of your electrical utility** is critical in figuring out if this makes **financial** sense for you. My electricity is pretty cheap (~$0.11/kWh), so that actually makes the payback period for this investment longer - but the deal I got from Solar Energy World works out for me (the "mega-installers" deal WOULD NOT). A final note - I did have a panel fail (!!!!). I noticed it on the handy app that is provided (Enlighten - I think it comes with all Enphase micro-inverter installations). I contacted SEW, they verified it on their end (they can still see the system), and a couple of weeks later I had an installer on my roof, removing the old panel and installing a new one. No hassle at all.

Exceptional Experience
From start to finish, the experience was incredible. Representative knew what was what, and kept in contact with us every step the the way. Removed four 60 year old maples. The company they contracted was efficient, knowledgeable, and were amazing. Had to cut around wires, buildings and other trees with no damage whatso ever. Installation guys were polite and kept us informed every step of the way. They are an amazing company. Would give them six stars if I could. If you are looking to get solar, this is the right company.

A+++ Service and Attentiveness
The sales staff and installation staff were 100% the best I’ve had to work with. I’ve been through the ringer with trying to choose the correct company to go with, and with each choice I felt like there was some way they were selling me a dream or trying to get over on me. SOLAR Energy World is the first company I felt comfortable with. The salesman Jameel took his time and walked me through the whole entire process from the beginning to the end. He was available every day I needed him or had a question that I needed answered. Night nor Day. When I felt frustrated about something, Jameel was there to put me at ease. The sales manger and the everyone above him reached out to me to make sure everything was handled in the best way to make me happy!! Loved them all!!! Can talk about them all day!! Also….THEY SAVED ME CRAZY $$$$!!!

Solar Energy gets thumbs up !
We had been wanting to get solar for some time now. I went on the internet and researched 5 local companies. It was really hard to choose until I contacted Solar Energy. The office staff reached out to their sales rep. David Garcia , and within minutes he returned my call. He was so professional yet down to earth. He went over their product and we set up a home visit. We’ve communicated several times. Very easy to get a hold of. Their company took care of everything. When it came time for our install , they were right on it. Nicest group of people, I was able to ask them questions with out any hesitation. From the time I contacted them until everything was installed was a little over 2 months. We are in our late 60’s and decided to lease . Solar Energy stands behind their product and will warranty for the full 25 years. Our electric bill went from $369.00 to $229.00 much better… If you’re considering doing Solar I would definitely give them a call .

Great experience with Solar Energy World
Researched several installers in our area before selecting Solar Energy World (SEW), and very glad we did. They were highly recommended by some of our neighbors. Our sales person, Morgan, was extremely helpful, patient, and informative throughout the whole process. He and his management team worked closely with us to ensure we got the right system for our home, answered all my questions and concerns, and helped me make all the numbers work (after all it is a sizable investment). I feel very confident we made the right choice. The rest of the process went quicker than my decision making! The installation team was excellent and professional. They kept us well informed of the progress each day and what was happening. I appreciate they took the time to explain each part of the install and the equipment. It's been 1 month since the system went live, and working as expected. Having the microinverters on each panel is great. It has pointed out that we need to trim a few trees to get optimal output on a few panels. SEW (and most notably Morgan) remains in contact with us and continues to answer promptly any questions I have. I highly recommend Solar Energy World!

He kept me in the loop throughout the whole process and was very responsive. The install crew was very professional and cleaned up after they wrapped up. Now that my first solar loan payment has started, my utility bill has been completely eliminated other than a fixed $10 monthly grid connection fee to PECO.

Fantastic Company Product and Service!
We learned about Solar Energy World (SEW) through our neighbors in Arlington, VA. They seemed really happy with their install and we had a new electric car on the way and so wanted to explore the benefits. We were newbies and Zachary did a fantastic job of explaining how solar works (installation, cost, working with your power company, etc.). He also set realistic expectations of what we could expect. Using historical data from our electric bill images of our roof, pitch, trees, etc., Zachary pulled together a quote for us. He also had folks come out and inspect our roof which was 20 years old. Yep, we needed a new roof so we did everything at once-- through Zachary. Zachary was also super helpful in suggesting a easy to use way to finance the job (new roof and 38 panels). Zachary also helped us with timing to avoid potential cost increases and made it feel like a one stop shop (even though financing was with another company). Our job was probably medium difficulty to install as we have a detached garage and so additional lines had to be run. SEW did all of the engineering and presented us with a plan. Once we signed, we were off to the races. The installation was really well done and included great names like Silfab and Enphase. SEW made every effort to make the install look nice and SEW handled everything-- including inspection. We just had to be home to let workers/inspectors in. After the job was complete, Zachary and Erica did a fantastic job of answering our questions-- we still had many and so will you. They also went above and beyond in helping us to get our local power company to approve our system to maximize savings. SEW is legit and does not over promise. Honestly, we were disappointed initially when Zachary told us that 38 panels would not cover our entire electric bill. A lot of companies could tell you otherwise and simply not deliver. We knew up front that our installation would cover around 70% to 80% which was still worth it for us. Our installation is new enough where we are still tracking bills but electric prices have definitely dropped and now I can power my new EV truck with solar power which is incredibly efficient from both a cost and time perspective. There is a learning curve with solar in terms of design, installation, dealing with your power company and cost. Do your homework and ask a lot of questions. Definitely ask for Zachary and Erica-- they are a fantastic team and made our process so much easier. Would I use SEW again or recommend to a friend? The answer is an absolute yes-- and we have already done so. Great job Zachary, Erica and SEW!

Great experience- SEW simplifies/walks customer thru each step
Had a tremendous experience and my panels have been up and running for 4 months now. The advisor/client rep (for me) was Jacques Frink, and he was fantastic and professional-- explained every step in detail and any follow up questions I had, whether on the architecture blueprint (questions on fitting more), the estimated production (explained SREC pricing), etc. Solar Energy World (SEW) has a very good overview document that they provide to detail out the system, overhead shots of the roof, etc. Would highly recommend given their volume of work in the area, and in particular the way they handle gaining approvals from my HOA, town permits, etc. Class act and made it very easy, which is why I feel okay typing this much : ) Also- if it matters-- I feel the "look" of the panels they use is very sleek/unassuming, so it looks very 'clean' on the roof. Also decided based on the 30-yr insured (transferable if home is sold) Installation was NOT on schedule but that was due to Dominion Energy having a delay for every customer due to the new type of meter they were starting to use.
