We bought 26 panels and 2 Powerwalls. Everything was as advertised and is working very well. The sales process was stellar. Very straightforward and the sales rep knew the business. The installation was smooth and we have been up and running since Nov 2020.

Midwest installed an 18.9 kw ground mounted system for us that was an especially challenging set of circumstances. Without going into all the details, let's just say they went above and beyond to do whatever it took to make this work, and stayed at their quoted amount even after a lot of challenges. Top notch organization!

I was lucky enough to be passed over by a couple other solar installers to ultimately work with Matt and the whole Jefferson team. Matt did a great job sending me all the information to get my HOA to approve my solar plan keep esthetics high on the priority list while still maximizing production. The one small timing hiccup was addressed well by Matt and Rob still allowed for the install to get completed. To give them even more credit the follow on care has been great! My array has something that is effecting it’s production which appears to be an error from the utility not anything Jefferson has control over. Rob continues to follow up to help find a resolution to have the whole system work at maximum efficiency.<br /><br />Thank you Matt, Rob, and all the great people at Jefferson Electric that has made my experience so positive!

I went with GRNE for our solar install last fall based on vetting done by Solarize Chicagoland. So glad I did! I couldn't recommend them more highly. Every person I've had contact with has been professional and extremely helpful every step of the way, very conscientious and patient with all my questions. The install went great and the panels have been up and running for months now, working like a dream. Thanks GRNE!

RegenEn Solar just finished our 54 panel installation. Excellent job on our house. The workers were professional and knowledgeable and cleaned up any mess immediately. Only one day delayed for very bad weather. They showed up ready to go when they promised to be here. They did exactly what we wanted and for the price we agreed upon. They walked us through the permit process step by step so we could start on schedule. We appreciated their attention to detail not just with the functionality but the appearance of the installation as well. Excellent job. We are so pleased with our net zero utility bill. Thank you Dan!.

Centerville, over 1 month
We called them saying one of our panels was showing "0" production which means the inverter is not working. This seems to be happening too often as this will be the five or sixth inverter to break down. We have 29 panels. Icon Solar told me in October, they would be out before Thanksgiving. It is January. We called again to be told the company in Canada has not been shipping the inverters, warrantied or not. They are having a problem getting the inverters from the manufacturer. This really upsets us as we invested in this company. At this point, they need to find another manufacturer and hold up to the warranty they promised upon installation. Very frustrating.

The reviews scores for the largest solar companies are far worse than those for local, family-owned solar installation companies.
The best solar companies meet the following criteria:
The solar industry is full of fly-by-night solar companies — both big and small — that open one year and are gone the next.
Solar panels last for 25-30 years, so you want an installer who will help you with any problems or system faults. For this to happen, your installer needs to be able to stay in business
Local solar companies, as a group, have the highest reviews score on our site and also have lower overheads than corporate installers, making them more likely to survive in the long term.
