    We began our solar project with Bright Planet Solar in February 2024, expecting a smooth process. Instead, it took nearly a year to complete. Plagued by constant delays and miscommunication. After installation in June, we were told inspections would follow quickly, but weeks passed without updates. We had to chase down responses constantly, often being ignored for long stretches. In August, their technicians caused a power outage affecting our pool system, then told us to hire our own electrician to fix it – despite it being their error and admitting they did not know how to fix it themselves

    Most unprofessional company every dealt with. Install dreadfull, panels on crooked, knocked out two main rooms, left panel with hole before rain day. Wiring done 3 times and still failed. Plans incorrect with install and county inspector failed them even thogh they did last minute changes before county inspector arrived. Last but not very least, paying 3rd month with out Solor. Paying both Edison and Enfin financial for Bright sun non efficient solor install and panel upgrade. Do not go with this company you will regret it.

    Call to inquire about solar repair because the website states Bright Sun Solar Panel does repairs. When I called the lady took my information and said they don't do repairs and hung up. I called back and they act like they could not hear me. Be careful of this company they could be a scam!

Reviewer names are not published here. Negative reviews are shown first because they are the ones a listing hides, not because they are more representative.

Who Google shows alongside them

Google’s own “people also viewed” set, in Google’s order. It is Google’s comparison, not ours.

The ones without a link have no page here, either because Google does not categorise them as solar businesses or because we could not match the name to a listing with confidence.

Ordered by how much we can tell you about each, which is not an order of quality. We do not know which of these is better and would not say if we did.

What we don't know

  • The date above is the newest review we hold, which is not necessarily the newest that exists — we hold a large share of Google's reviews, not all of them.
  • We found nothing on a website for this company that states a warranty, a licence or how long it has traded.
  • We do not verify licences, insurance or bonding. Nothing here has been checked against a state licensing board.
  • We cannot tell you what an installation costs, and we hold nothing about the equipment they fit.
