  Be aware that Sky Power states on their website that: "Our current service rates are $195 per hour, with an additional truck roll fee for sites located 10 miles or more from our local office", However they quoted a minimum charge of $500 to diagnose the problem because I was a "New Customer". I said that I felt that the advertised price was misleading since it does not mention anything about a new customer price (I actually purchased my system from Sky Power in 2015- but they had been sold since then to new owners). Further I stated if it was not changed to reflect the "New Customer" pricing i

  Beware - Don't use if you are a PG&E customer. The system they designed for me had me giving over $100,000 in free electricity to PG&E over the life of the system.

I can't tell if there sales people are just trying grossly over sell for the commission or if they are just poorly trained. I have found other companies know how to design systems properly saving me over $10,000.

  Excellent, knowledgeable company. They are premiere installers for several brands, so can figure out which brand yields the best cost-benefit analysis for you at the time you're buying, and hook you up with the "extra" warranty some manuf's offer for premiere installers. If you're looking to save some $$, they can recommend cheaper manufacturers and explain, in English, exactly how that should affect performance. The reps were exceedingly patient with me and responsive to my voluminous questions. They are one of the oldest solar companies in the Bay Area so have a long track record of good per

  Skypower did a great job for us - they delivered on every promise. We had an awful, terrible experience with another solar vendor, which wasted a year of our time (and electric bills). We fired them and hired Skypower, and we are thrilled that we did. I am an electric engineer (specializing in something much different than solar), and I can confirm that I was not being sold something I did not need. In my first week of net metering I am generating more than I use, when the heat sets (and using AC) in we will be close to very zero - which is the goal. We went with the Sunpower panels and micro

  Great service. Everything was fully explained up-front. The installation went without a hitch. Now I’m making electricity while the sun shines. I recommend Sky Power unreservedly.

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.

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

• Financing

  “purchasing solar and affordable solar financing options. Fill out the form below to request…”

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

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.

• —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.
