Only if you want to call,text and email for weeks until you hear back with some non-sense! He (Eddie owner of Repower OC) is a middle man with no contracting license and you won't be signing contract with him! It's another contractor who you will be signing an agreement and then good luck get a hold of either! My experience: March 2025: Signed a contract and paid deposit before start building my ADU even before plans get approved by the city( red flag cuz you are not supposed to bid/charge on unapproved plans!) Dec 2025: I asked them to start the permitting process. After three weeks of repeat

Eddie and the team at REPOWER OC really know their stuff when it comes to solar. They helped my client install a solar system along with a Tesla Powerwall 3 battery, which let us move forward with a new HVAC system for electric heating and cooling. The results were impressive—my client’s SCE bill dropped from about $500 a month to just $250 with a PPA. It honestly sounded too good to be true, but REPOWER OC came through. Super knowledgeable and easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Eddie McLaughlin is a true solar expert and a great representative of Repower OC. His depth of knowledge, professionalism, and ability to communicate complex topics in a clear, approachable way really stand out. Every time I’ve heard him speak, his passion for clean energy and helping others make informed decisions is obvious. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and experienced in the solar industry, Eddie and the Repower OC team are the real deal.

After my experience with REPOWER OC, I can confidently recommend them for solar installation in Orange County. This Costa Mesa-based company impressed me with their thorough, customer-focused approach. They took the time to analyze my SCE bills and clearly demonstrated how solar would reduce my monthly costs. Their detailed projections of long-term savings helped me feel confident in my decision. REPOWER OC excelled at explaining financing options and the federal tax credits available (currently 30% of system cost and 90% for a commercial building). They simplified what could have been an over

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.

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.
