    ***DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY*** *EDIT IN RESPONSE TO OWNER* Do not mislead your customers. "Policies ... based on contractual and insurance requirements." So, what you're telling me is the next guy to buy a house with your panels installed is S.O.L. for having them maintained since they weren't the original owners that were under contract. Also, btw, I never received a call back "upon her return." I was informed the operations manager would be away, but was not informed anyone would be working on a quote except her. In fact, I was told that I would need to wait for her to return in order to get

    We had our solar system installed by Renewable Energy Solar about 2½ years ago, and our experience has been consistently disappointing. During the sales presentation, we were given very specific projections for cost savings and energy production. I still have those numbers, and they turned out to be completely inaccurate. Our actual results fall far short of what we were told to expect. The installation itself took several months longer than promised. When it was finally completed, a large portion of the system wasn’t even functioning. It took multiple visits over several more months and diffe

    We are coming up on our second year now and I don’t think we’ve saved a dime. Advised previously that everything’s working fine . Worst decision we’ve ever made. With financing we will have paid $72,000 Over the next 20 years. We were advised that it would pay for itself. What a nightmare.

    **UPDATED REVIEW** The process was slow for us, it took almost 6 months from February when they started working on our project to be allowed to switch it on in Aug. Failed electrical panel inspections two times but REC came out and explained the situation and worked with the inspector to get it resolved. However, I would say we made our decision too quickly on the company and the project. We should have read the Yelp! reviews as they mirrored our experience especially on the selling side of things. We have had many quotes after the fact where the price was way less than what they charged us, e

    Sean McNeill shared great advice and experience even though I was outside his service area. I feel lucky to have crossed paths with such a honest guy!

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.

  • Family owned

    “Energy Corporation is a trusted, family-owned solar company providing professional…”

Its website also mentions warranty, free estimate and established, 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 Instagram and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.
