Its one and two star share is level with the typical installer in Alaska. Across Alaska, 7 of the 15 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 21 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 Alaska whose Google breakdown has been read, placed by its share of one and two star reviews. Gensolar is the red one. The amber line is the middle of that set, which includes suppliers and maintenance businesses as well as installers.

    My first interactions with Aaron at gensolar were great. I reached out inquiring about getting a solar package for a new build, and Aaron helped me figure out exactly what I needed. He proceeded to sell me on a federal tax credit incentive that would reduce the overall cost by 40%. This federal tax credit involved applying for a grant, and that I would for sure get it. This 40% tax credit brought the overall cost down enough to justify moving forward, which I did. Part of Aaron’s great sales tactic included the team at Gensolar filling out the grant application on my behalf, with the pitch tha

    The folks at Gensolar are easy to deal with and we had a great installation with our new Generac system. They were on time, left the work area clean and tidy, and commissioned our new system without a hitch. Thanks to Aaron, Jesse and the crew for a great experience. It is refreshing to deal with a professional company that stands behind their product and goes above and beyond to ensure the customer is happy. Thanks Gensolar!

    i have an unusually high electric bill for a home, lots of people in the house, and so needed more solar panels than most. even so, got it in spring and still managed to completely eliminate the monthly bill (minus the $20 fee the electric company charges no matter what), and all indication is that i wont have any electric bills this summer. will need to see how it holds up over the winter, but so far this is going excellently.

    GenSolar has been a great partner getting our Generac standby generator up and running and providing outstanding ongoing maintenance service. The generator has been a lifesaver through several power outages and the staff professional and supportive.

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.

Elsewhere

  • Google also lists this company under electrical.
  • It is also reviewed on Yelp and 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 Instagram. 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.

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.
