Greene Tech Renewable Energy

My wife and I started looking into solar about 6 months ago. After doing a great deal of research myself, I found that many listings on the Internet were very misleading, many seemed to just be interested in selling inferior products, and seemed mostly to be interested in selling a product and NOT providing the information needed to make an informed decision. One EXCEPTION to this was Ian Huddleston of Green Tech Renewable Energy (GTRE).

Ian contacted us immediately and without hesitation came to our home (a good one hour drive) even though I explained to him by phone that this could be a "challenging" installation. On arrival we discussed our solar options. Even though we have a number of trees, he made a thorough survey of what was possible. He was totally honest about what we could expect and since we did not want total energy independence how much we could reasonably expect. He took our wishes into consideration and made suggestions on how with minimal tree trimming we could optimize solar production with minimum esthetic changes. At no time did he "Hard Sell". On his second visit (my wife and I needed to think about it), we signed on the bottom line.

He had the misfortune of ordering supplies from Florida during two hurricanes that delayed delivery but since he is a major distributer of the high quality products he supplied to us, delivery was expedited by his suppliers so the installation progressed and was finished with little delay.

Ian was a joy to work with and was very professional. I am a bit of a kibitzer and asked him MANY questions during the install. He not only answered my plethora of questions but also educated me on the many ins and outs of the installation. Ours was a bit "out-of-the-box" since we also have a backup generator that handles essential loads during power outages. He was able to integrate the solar installation such that on an outage, immediate needs are met with solar and storage batteries, switching to the generator only when that is depleted.

As I said before the products he supplies are VERY HIGH QUALITY and the solid black solar panels he supplied complement the style of our contemporary home very well. Indeed his installation almost looks like it was planned as a part of the original design.

In conclusion, should you desire a well-designed, professionally installed, high quality solar installation, done efficiently at a very good price, look no further than Ian Huddleston and GTRE.... read more
