Its one and two star share is level with the typical installer in the Wilmington area. Across Delaware, 13 of the 18 installers whose breakdown Google has published carry a higher share than this one.

The percentages are Google’s own arithmetic over every review it holds, not a sample we assembled. Separately we hold 160 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.

Each mark is one company we hold in the Wilmington area whose Google breakdown has been read, placed by its share of one and two star reviews. Clean Energy USA is the red one. The amber line is the middle of that set, which includes suppliers and maintenance businesses as well as installers.

    I have requested them to cease sending me emails constantly, yet I receive them anyway and most every day.

    I contracted with CE USA to install solar during the construction of my house, and also asked about a eventually getting a generator - now, this was at the time when Schell Brothers wasn't offering generators due to supply chain issues. I called the sales guy multiple times, he said he would get back to me, never did. So I arranged with another company for a generator. Turns out that additional work is needed so that the solar inverter disengages when the power goes out and the generator kicks on. I called CE USA, now they say this is a new request even though I had discussed it with them. The

    Long story short... Rep was inattentive for weeks with excuses. However after finding out this is a Shell Brothers company I would never utilize them. Since my first review seemed to be deleted I posted a much shorter version.

    Very impressed with Clean Energy. They were competitively priced and take care of everything. The process was painless and they are very responsive to any questions or issues that may come up. Highly recommend!

    Clean Energy USA is a great company to deal with. They installed solar and got me activated quickly. They handled all the paperwork and permits needed. Great hands off experience. Highly recommend.

    Just had a scary inverter message and Clean Energy guided me through it. They are so very responsive and always there for help and support.

Topics Google derives from the review text, with how often each appears. A frequent topic is not a good one: “price” turns up in praise and in complaints alike.

What the company says about itself

Taken from its own website. We have not checked any of it, and a sentence on a website is not evidence.

    Its website also mentions established, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

    Elsewhere

    • It is also reviewed on the Better Business Bureau. Worth reading before you sign anything: those are a different crowd, and the complaints that reach the Better Business Bureau rarely reach Google.
    • It posts on LinkedIn, YouTube and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

    As Google published them when we last read the listing, not a live check. Ring before you drive anywhere.

    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 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.
