I was looking for a company to design, install, and manage my solar array. I was lucky enough to stumble on Envinity. They were very professional, they took care of everything (design, install, permits, dealing with my energy provider, etc) and completed the project ahead of schedule. They also monitor my system and helped set me up with an account manager to manage my solar credits. I couldn't be happier with the service they provided and continue to provide. All I had to do was write the check and they took care of the rest. Absolutely 5 stars!

During July, 2013 Solar Greenergy installed a 7.2 kW solar system on my residence using 21 SunPower SPR-x21 panels and a SunPower SPR-7000m Inverter. I could not be more pleased with the sales process and system installation. The Solar system is operating exactly as promised and my decision to award the business to Solar Greenergy resulted in significant savings compared to other contractor bids. All the positive reviews around this company are true. Dana Diodati, Greenergy’s salesperson thoroughly understands solar system design, the rebate process and works tirelessly to ensure that her customers experience complete satisfaction. All telephone calls and emails to Dana are responded to the same day if not immediately and she takes the time necessary to answer her client’s questions in a detailed and professional manner. Finally, there is a significant advantage contracting with Solar Greenergy. Since they are a division of Summit Electric, this company will still be in business when other solar companies are not. It is for all the reasons above, that I give my endorsement to Solar Greenergy.

Belmont installed my Solar System in 2019. The company is amazing to work with. They spent time understanding what I wanted to get out of solar and developed a system that has exceeded my expectations. The entire process went smoothly and the Belmont team kept me updated through out. The install itself was low impact on my family and the Belmont install team is fantastic. Highly recommend this company to anyone looking to get solar.

We're delighted with the results of our ground-mounted solar installation. Jeff Kilmer was entirely above board in his estimate and Patrick, his installer, worked outside through the coldest winter in centuries, it seemed, to complete the installation. I cannot imagine a more responsible contractor than Green Field Energy Solutions.

Robert the part owner patiently walked through the numerous roadblocks that my electric servicer (PECO) put up. We finally decided on net zero which uses solar panels and a battery system. The installation went quickly but, due to some software updates it took a while longer. I would truly recommend Alien Fuel Inc. to be your Solar System Installer.

Exact Solar installed our solar panel system, we've been extremely pleased with them. They were very nice to deal with, and got the job done when they said they would. What's been even better is the ongoing customer service. They have always been very prompt in responding to my phone calls and emails, and have been cheerful, helpful and proactive in resolving my issues and questions.

After meeting with 3 other solar companies, we decided to go with Bight Eye. They provided more info, and offered the most details of the inspection, installation, activation, and monitoring of the system. E-mail communication was convenient and efficient. Most document signing was done online, and they took care of all the legal, and technical aspects. Installation took only 3 days. The crew was skilled, friendly, and professional. Explained what they were doing, and left only when the job was complete and the area was clean. The financing was flexible with no money down, and a good interest rate. Monitoring the system is easy on my computer or smartphone. I highly recommend Bright Eye for all your solar needs.

I inquired multiple solar installation contractors, small & big, local & national. After reviewing all the proposals and comparing the equipments, the services and the warranty they offer, I finalized with Public Service Solar. I was initially skeptical, so I researched further to do my due diligence. Overall, I got a good feeling. Along with solar installation, I also got my roof installed with them. They gave a great combo offer. While reviewing the contract, they took time to explain all that would be done in their job. They followed through their time-line. They did a great job for roof and solar installation. No project is without any issue, so when there was a minor issue (my personal Wi-Fi signal was not strong enough to connect to Enphase system) during the process, Tony and his team were fully willing to resolve the issue and they provided Wi-Fi range extender at no cost. Even after the system is turned on, they are still equally supportive and responsive. Especially Sean, he is very prompt to get back and to address all valid and invalid concerns. They completely lived up to my expectation, so I recommended them to some of my friends and would continue recommending others.

Paradise Energy Solutions was the 2nd company that we reached out to for an estimate. The first company made a proposal, presented it to us with minimal discussion, and really didn't answer the questions we had for them. This left us with no desire to continue any further with the project. But after some research, we found Paradise Energy and contacted them. They developed a proposal and presented it to us and thoroughly explained every aspect of the proposal and answered every question that we had for them. We ultimately decided to use them to install our roof-mounted system. The communication throughout the whole process was great and we are thoroughly pleased with how the project turned out! We would highly recommend Paradise Energy for anyone who is interested in installing a Solar System!!

Installed our system on time and exactly as described. Very professional and tidy, and the system looks great! Were very responsive and helpful when debugging over-voltage issue on the utility side 4 months after the install. I couldn't ask for more friendlier and kinder people to hire. Blair and Bill also volunteer their time with several local non-profits to help our community become more energy efficient and install renewable energy systems!

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.

Tesla Team were very professional, arrived on time, and install was done on the panels in one day, power turned on the second day. I heard stories from my neighbors, who had a different supplier, about how long it took, but with Tesla they were extremely efficient, and with two power walls, I will avoid any down-time with power outages here in California. I'll be recommending to all my friends! I'm glad I chose Tesla, as I'm not off the Grid!

I used this company to have a basis for my solar panels on my new house. They did a great assessment of my usage, roof, and environment. They came to the house after numerous meetings online (COVID) to finalize the project and check if 100% everything was fine. Everything financially was reviewed. Before starting, they took over all the communication with the HOA. Once approved by the HOA, the project was started. I now have 28 beautiful Solar Panels which cover 100% of my yearly usage. Would I recommend Cape Fear Solar Systems: YES.

We inherited the lease when we bought our house. They just lie that you will save money. We ended up paying more and are stuck with them for 20 years! They are charging us 37 cents per kWhs which is much higher than PG&E, and they increase it by 2.9% annually. The billing is so confusing because we are dealing with 3 different companies (Sunrun, Silicon Valley energy company that buys the electricity from Sunrun (just found out at 7cents per kWhs when Sunrun charges us 37 cents!!) and PG&E for delivering the energy). None of this was explained to us- all you hear is that you get credit on your PG&E bill- which is another lie. Be aware that your monthly PGE bill is low because it is NOT for your electricity use (that's just for $10 monthly meter reading and gas only), at the end of the year you get a surprise large bill from PG&E called "Tru Up" for your yearly usage. Once we found out all these, it was too late. it's impossible to get out of a 20 year contract because of the egregious penalties. DO NOT LET THEM FOOL YOU!!!!

To anyone considering solar, PLEASE go with any other company than Vivint. There are so many to choose from. It's true what all the other negative reviews say. They will give you what you want until you sign that contract and the panels are up/working. Their customer service is beyond horrible. We've had years of issues, but this year was the worst. We knew there was something wrong with our panels and had to fight for weeks to get someone out to check them. Once the tech came out he confirmed we had several pieces not working correctly. He said he'd get the parts and return. He NEVER returned. We had to fight again for MONTHS to get someone out. Every customer service rep said they had NO record of anyone coming to our house and that our system was perfect. I mean, what a joke! After 3 months we finally got in contact with a supervisor named Miles and he all of the sudden found the record of a tech coming out and that we did have an issue. Meanwhile, our true-up is through the roof. He said he'd open a case to see if we could be reimbursed for funds lost since their company never returned to fix our parts. But of course, case was closed and they didn't find any money they owed us. I mean, not shocking since they are the WORST solar company. To this day we are still waiting for the tech to come "fix" our system. I will NEVER refer them to anyone and I will tell anyone who asks about solar to NEVER go with Vivint and all of the horrible and shady things they do. What a pitiful company!
