Southern Current Solar reviews
Latest Southern Current Solar reviews
After becoming interested in solar for my home, My wife and I started researching ..
We got quotes from 3 three other companies before deciding to go with Southern Current..
They were quick and responsive to show us the best system for our needs. They are very knowledgeable and professional. Their prices beat all the others we had gotten.
They handled the design, the engineering, all the permitting required. It came out a little ahead of schedule and performed a flawless install. They cleaned everything up after themselves and had me running in three days. Since then we've been very satisfied with the performance and the savings that we now get.
System has now been online almost 11 months with zero downtime. We closely monitor our system's output by the convenient app... Other than that it's hands off. The only thing that would make this whole process better would be if we had longer days... Lol.. I give southern current and their team to thumbs up and five stars...... read more
16Kw system which just gave me a -42 dollar credit on South Carolina. The system was expected to only cover 60% percent of my energy needs. 50 320 panels located on the back of my house I couldn't be happier as I see that the system will be covering almost 80 to 100% each month. Great company and very responsive to your needs. Professional install and no outsourcing. They were able to handle all of my geek questions with their impressive staff. Nobody was unreachable all the way to the top of the company down.... read more

Sales was great and getting everything together to include financing went smooth. Then started the issues. System was suppose to be installed in October (written guarantee) but wasn't installed until the end of November and the system didn't go live until December 15th. I had to continue to reach out to the company due to I never heard from a company representative with any schedule updates.
The installers were very professional and did great work. They cleaned up after themselves and any issues that arose they solved them very quickly. I was very pleased with the installation.
As stated earlier I went live December 15th on my solar production. However, I have not heard from the company since the final installation and inspection. Hmm?????????... read more

The best Solar Company in South Carolina bar none!

The best Solar Company in South Carolina bar none! Southern Current is #1 in communications, installation, clean-up, and all round being nice guys. I even had to remind them that they needed to get their their small down payment check of $85.00 dollars, how's that for being concerned for my satisfaction of their work and installation of the solar system. By the way, we just got our Duke bill for the first full month of solar usage - $10.27, and that was for fees and basic facilities charges, YAHOO!!!! I love these guys!... read more
Going Solar with Southern Current
Type: Residential Electric
Reviewed: 08/09/2018
Last month, I made the decision to purchase a solar system and I now have solar panels installed on my rooftop. It has been a very speedy process thanks to the very efficient and responsive folks at Southern Current. For me, it took 1.5 months to decide on the installer and after doing a lot of research on installers, solar panels, inverters, I chose Southern Current. The four high level steps - Interconnection request with SC&G, city/county design approval, HOA approval, and installation took a little under 7 weeks and two more weeks for utility and city inspection. I compared Sunrun, Horizon Pwr, United Solar, Hilton Head Solar, and Southern Current and created a very elaborate spreadsheet to do an apples-to-apples comparison since every company provides the same information in a different manner. Bobby Jones was very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. He was very patient with all my questions and even helped me compare different proposals. I would highly recommend giving him a call @ 843-442-8753 if you're considering going solar. You can mention my name (Adi Makhija) for a little referral bonus for me :)... read more

Our installation was complete about two months ago and overall we are very pleased. The whole process was relatively smooth and well explained. The installation crew were well organized, professional, and did an excellent job of keeping the job site clean. I liked that Southern Current was a local company and well established in South Carolina unlike some of the others I talked to. They also seemed more knowledgeable and had multiple certifications where other companies had very few. They provided a list of local references, several of which were in my neighborhood, and all were pleased with Southern Current.... read more
Great Solar

Everyone at Southern Current were very professional. The salesman Justin came out on a Saturday, even taking time away from his family. The installation crew were also professional and all introduced themselves. They told me every step of the installation and cleaned all of the trash involved. Everyone treated me as if they were appreciative of our business. I had talked with other solar companies and they were matter of fact and didn't seem to care whether we used them or not.
The things that sold me on Southern Current were:
* South Carolina based in Charleston
* with an installation and service center in the upstate in Simpsonville
* The salesman was very knowledgeable and also was a customer of solar (including his parents and in-laws)
* They had installed solar on local Target and Kohls.
* They were also establishing solar farms in the Carolinas and Georgia
* They were installing solar on two of the schools in the school district we live
If the school district was going with them, I knew they had been totally vetted and would be the best.
The only draw back I had during the entire experience was waiting on Duke Energy to come and change the meter and have it ready to turn on. Duke was supposed to come within 15 business days. The technician came out the morning of the 16th day... the change over took all of 10 minutes.... read more

They took care of the entire process, including scheduling inspections and hooking up to the grid. I was also kept up to date along the way, and questions were answered promptly. Well written and thorough documentation. Feels good to be running everything at home on the sun.... read more

Satisfied Customer

Southern Current has provided excellent support and service from the beginning. When I was trying to make an informed decision about the type of solar panels and system components that would best meet my needs, Eric provided answers and technical data in response to each question I raised. The install team was professional, courteous, and made sure the work-site was clean when they completed. A few days after installation, my monitoring system indicated a problem with some panels. Before I could report the issue the next morning, we were surprised to find a Southern Current employee knocking on our door. He was already there to fix the problem, which they had detected remotely. They seem to make customer satisfaction a priority.... read more
