    Constant spam calls, never once reached out to them.

    Soliciting sales team comes to home. Continues to approach me in my drive way when I said I wasn’t interested and asked them to leave. Made me feel very uncomfortable.

    Got it in my house in Summerville. Energy company bought back my electricity. Was honestly skeptical at first but yeah this actually helped me and my family a lot. Thanks guys

    My husband and I got ion solar a while ago we were one of the early adopters. And at first we were very nervous solar at the time seemed to be a huge commitment. However since having it it’s been nothing but a breeze. Everything that the sales rep explained to us ended up being true. The tax credit helped us so much as well. Our neighbors bill is much higher than ours is now so we are really grateful we took advantage of solar when we did. I mean $120 for electric you can’t beat that!

What reviewers keep mentioning

  • soliciting 3

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.

  • Financing

    “offers you some of the best TPO and financing options available in the solar industry. Our…”

Its website also mentions free estimate, established, better business bureau and licensed, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

Elsewhere

  • It is also reviewed on Yelp. 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 X, LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.
