Overview of Verde Solar Power

Our Mission has always been one of energy conservation, economic value and pro ecology. We are dedicated to assessing, designing, installing and servicing solar power systems in homes, businesses, churches, schools and community buildings in the Verde Valley. Verde Solar Power engineers, installs and services Photovoltaic (PV) electric solar systems. We are centrally located in Cornville at the Windmill Garden Center to serve the Verde Valley residential and commercial market. Our assessment software is custom designed for the APS rate structure and therefore the most accurate for this area. We custom design and fabricate each installation and service all solar electric systems. Verde Solar Power utilizes the APS Renewables Program for our customers. We endeavor to spread the usage of this ideal energy source and our vision is to put this great resource to work in the Verde Valley. Solar power is the “Energy – Ecology – Economy” solution! Our company was founded in 1996, (formerly named Sedonix Solar), to design and develop electronic equipment by Greg Collins, an electronics engineer with an avionics background. Greg has promoted, installed and used grid-tied and off-grid solar systems since 1988. With the advent of the current tax incentives making solar power affordable, the business was reorganized in 2006 to focus on grid-tied solar power systems and a retail store was opened in Cornville in 2009 which established Verde Solar Power. Our design goal is to achieve the most cost effective, aesthetic solution for each application. We can engineer a system for any kind of roof type and pioneered the local use of ballasted and cable tied mounting systems for flat roofs. We promote grid-tied systems in cooperation with APS, and the new hybrid battery backed solar systems.

I had an excellent experience with this solar company from start to finish. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything clearly without any pressure. They showed up on time, kept the work area clean, and completed the installation with great attention to detail. You can tell they take pride in their work and truly care about customer satisfaction. If you’re looking for a reliable, honest, and professional solar company, I highly recommend them.

I have had a great experience so far with a complicated situation. There was a quick response time from my phone call, one tech, Chris came out very quickly and then it was handed over to Lisa. Lisa was extremely dedicated to troubleshooting the issue, going above and beyond. Parts are being ordered and the electrician will have to come out but so far I am super impressed and grateful!

Verde Solar recently installed solar at my home in Sedona and were professional and knowledgeable. Very responsive throughout and they customized everything to my requirements. I highly recommend them and it’s easy to understand why they are growing so fast and into electrical, roofing and more.

AAAAA+ Rating for Verde Solar Power!

Verde Solar Power gets a AAAAA+ rating for going above and beyond in helping me; a retired senior with my portable solar system hookup. I purchased two portable generators and solar panels, but had problems with hooking it up. After going to another Solar company in town for help, I was quickly dismissed and told they couldn’t assist. I inquired at Verde Solar Power and they scheduled an appointment for me to come in and meet with Caleb, Matt and Ryan. The three of them studied my systems and quickly determined that I was missing two cable connections. Caleb was able to configure and make adjustments to one cable but the other one was proprietary and could only be obtained from the manufacturer. Fortunately, with Caleb’s ingenuity and handy work he was able to make one system ready to use and the other one ready to use upon replacement of the missing proprietary cable! Verde Solar Power helped me out of the goodness of their hearts with no charge! They are a company who truly values their community and neighbors. Kudos to Dean and his crew Caleb, Matt, Ryan and Tracey for their helpfulness and kindness!

Great local company.

Straight talk, no jive, no hard sell, no hidden details. Best price (on best quality components) among half a dozen that I talked to. I was able to pay cash avoiding the extra cost and hassle of a loan or lease. Good workmanship, showed up when they said they would. System has worked well and I haven't paid APS a dime since it was installed end of September. These guys are a fine local company, I have only good things to say about them.

Happy Customer

My 8kw system works great. On a sunny day in spiring time I get over 60 kw/hrs a day. Many months I pay the APS minimum monthly charge plus build up my bank for hotter months. If you have not already get a solar system buy one.

Verde Solar Power, a great way to go solar

I got quotes for solar install from 4 different companies, 2 of them the biggies in the industry, one out of N Phoenix area and Verde Solar Power. I went with Verde Solar Power because they use US made panels, their pricing was very attractive (I purchased the system), their install timeframe was reasonable and they were local. I was impressed with the installation crew. Those guys were professional, courteous, diligent, and safety conscious. At various times each one of them answered my many questions about solar technology and the install process.

The Best

After reviewing other Solar people Greg seemed to know more about the system and the pricing was fair and by all means 5 Stars on the warranty! I called for a check-up after 9 years Greg came out and some of the parts were covered under the warranty .. just some boots nothing major but he went the extra mile to get with the supplier and had it covered parts and labor! I would highly recomend Verde Solar Power Thank You

Excellent People, Excellent Product!

We are very pleased with the entire Verde Solar Power process and the finished results! Our installation crew, Greg, Butch, and Andrew did a professional job of installing the components. The only downside was the wait for APS to approve everything and authorize the operation, but thanks to Greg we knew beforehand that this would happen. Because we have an all-electric home, we have always had the most cost-effective plan offered by APS, however, since the installation we've now gone through three billing periods and we've seen a dramatic drop in our monthly bill. At this rate, it won't be long before the energy savings repays the cost of the components and labor. I wish we'd done this years ago.

Local Experts and Long Service History

Verde Solar Power are true "local" solar experts for the Verde Valley and Prescott. It was a pleasure dealing with Greg and his staff. They designed and crafted the best installation for our Sedona home. I did look at other regional and national companies, but they could not match the expertise, price, and service history of Verde Solar Power. I can't say enough how Greg successfully worked through all the electric utility paperwork and delays. Buy local and get the best equipment and service -- highly recommended for your solar installation.

Did what they said they would in a timely manner with excellent

Greg at Verde Solar Power is a perfectionist. He's honest and reliable. He and his installers were timely, did what they said they would do within the time frame given, worked hard, and were neat and clean. They grounded every panel and wired them into the main panel. They did a good job installing the second meter, and dogeared the corner on the steel support so nobody would get hurt. I'm a civil engineer by trade, and you couldn't ask for anything more than that. I wish we had more people like him.

Excellent Job at a good price

I got prices from 4 companies. Verde Solar not only spent more time discussing my project to make sure they understood my goals, they had by far the lowest cost per watt.

Great people to do business with

The only reason I didn't give Verde Solar Power an excellent rating is because seven months after signing up with them, I have not received my sign-up bonus. Other than that, Greg Collins and his staff and crew were first rate in every way. Greg's easy-going manner made working with him and his crew a pleasure. Everything but the bonus happened on time and communications was excellent. I definitely recommend them.

We're delighted.

After the first snafu with APS putting in the wrong meter which charged us for the electricity our solar panels were generating, all seems to be well. I'm now upset with APS saying that our rates will go up because they are losing revenue from customers trying to save electricity!

Very responsible.

They come out and take care of everything, you don't even need to call them. If there's a change in the circuitry, they automatically come out and do it. You don't have to wait until something goes wrong, everything is set up on auto pilot. I think they're very responsible.

Very happy no brainer decision!

They were all very professional, they installed everything in 2 days complete. They asked if I wanted to go up on the roof and see. I did and they showed and explained to me everything they did and how they protected our roof from any damage from the installation. It was turned on in the winter time and our first APS bill was for $8.90. Our regular bill was $166.00 and we are elated. Checking Zilla adding the system to our home has double the value of the cost we paid to the value added to our home. We had other bids and they would check back and ask how much we paid and then would say when you don't get it for that call us. But we did get it for that. Thank you Verde Solar.

Excellent design and workmanship in the installation.

Verde Solar Power did an excellent job for me. I don't remember the actual size of the solar array they designed and installed for my home, but i can tell you this. Over the course of nearly two years prior to installation my electric bills ranged from about $300 per month to as high as $615 per month. Since the installation was put in service my monthly bills have ranged from $0 to $12. Yes, those are not typos ... that is the actual range of my monthly electric bills received from APS. I cannot say enough about Verde Solar Power. They are very very good at what they do. Their design was nearly perfectly sized for my home, they did everything in a very timely manner, and the physical installation was very professional. I did almost nothing (except to pay the bill, of course). They took care of everything including permits, etc. I did have to do some things with the electric utility (APS), but Verde Solar Power instructed me on exactly what I had to do and how to do it. I would not hesitate a single moment to use them again! The only negative in the entire process was the cost; however, the cost is what it is because the solar panels are expensive, to put it simply. As new scientific breakthroughs on the manufacture of solar panels occur in the future the cost will come down.

Very knowledgeable and helpful.

They installed solar paneling for me. The contact person, Greg, was very knowledgeable. I have to credit him with potentially saving me money. When he made the initial visit to inspect the house, he was the one that noticed there was hail damage on the roof. He mentioned that if the roof life was greater than 10 years at time of install, that when it came time to do the roof repairs his company would pay the cost to have it replaced. If was under 10 years, it would be my cost. As a result of his observation, I called my insurance company and got them to pay for the roof. I would have had no reason to know that if Greg hadn't said anything. When the county inspection came out, there were a few small fixes needed to be done. I told Greg, and he got the issues remedied right away. He was very knowledgeable, and explained to me how everything worked.

I can't understand why everyone wouldn't do this.

I became aware of Verde Solar Power through a Sierra Club article. Sierra supports them as a vendor of solar energy. I made an inquiry and was expecting to find that the cost of the installation would be prohibitive. I was quite surprised to find that I could get the installation with zero out of pocket based on the programs they offered and other rebates. I was thrilled at the prospect. I basically paid nothing out of pocket. I will be paying my 20 year lease the same as what I would have paid an electric bill. It turns out that I will start saving money in 2-3 years when compared to what my power bill would have been with utilities. The sales guy from Verde Solar Power was prompt and thorough. I was worried about my roof and whether I should replace it before the installation. The sales office provided me with a written opt-out clause if we got down the road and my roofing questions hadn't been answered. Brian, the project manager at Verde Solar Power, was attentive. The frequent contact was good. The information was also good. He was prompt to reply to my questions. I had some problems getting roofers out to look at the house and he provided me with some responsive references. It was all very painless.

Great money saver, Greg is very knowledgeable about panels

The last energy bill we received post-solar installation was only 6 dollars, when in May it would normally be about 150. We have a lot of electrical appliances and a hot tub that is always on. We have two air conditioning systems and consume a lot of energy so this has been a huge energy saver. In August and July our bills are normally 400 dollars so these solar panels are going give us huge savings! Verde Solar Panel did an excellent job selling and installing the panels. We were one of the first customers in the area and they are definitely the contractor of choice. They know exactly how to install their type of systems and they came out perfectly.

Excellent service that can't be beat.

Verde Solar Power put on 24 solar panels on my room behind the carport and on a patio cover. They did an excellent job. If anything goes wrong or if I think it is wrong, they come by the next day to make sure it is right. They upgraded the equipment automatically and I didn't have to do a thing. I've already recommended them to my neighbors. I'd give them 10 out of 5 if I could. It's certainly well worth investing in the solar panels. I am not going to pay a power bill for the next two or three years I have such a credit. I plan to have extra panels put on so I can switch over my gas oven to electric. I plan to be a customer for many years. If anybody wants to come and look, I'd be willing to show them my panels and the bill!

Great follow-through

Verde Solar Power took care of everything for me, they followed up, and they made sure to hook us up to the internet and make sure it was working. Anytime I needed them, they were available. The project only took a few weeks, a few months if you count going through the county to get county approval but it was a quick process once that was approved!

The go-to company for solar power

I originally went to Verde Solar Power for them to put solar panels to be put on my house. I checked a few other places around town and they seemed like the best one out of everyone to put the system on as well as the most reasonable cost-wise. Greg was very helpful and knowledgeable about the solar industry. From start to finish, it was a pretty much a great situation. We never had problems and he took care of everything in a timely manner. The system works great and any problems that did come up, he took care of right away.
