What reviewers said

  • 4★ · around August 2025 · the company replied

    Reluctant to get solar because of roof penetrations. Loved the idea of SolarPod Crown. My roof now generates as much power as I use, including 12k mi/yr in my EV. Update 6 years in: Squirrel damage to cables & microinverters shut down 5 panels. Repaired after 4 month wait for replacement microinverters. Old microinverters appear to have lost about 14% output compared to new.

    SolarPod was a great company to work with! They took care of all the paperwork and got the Eagan Minnesota building approval process done quickly. I used their Z-Rack system so I have zero holes in my roof and no heavy concrete to weigh it down. I used their 5.92kw system in 2021, upfront cost on their Z-Plan PPA was $8880 and only $275 a year for 7 years after. I plan to purchase the remaining part after the 7 years. Total amount was $17,918 and I got a nearly 35% savings without the in full large purchase price upfront. Savings on energy bills has been wonderful! Thank you so much!

    After getting multiple bids, we chose SolarPod because of their innovative "no holes drilled" technology, their personal local service, high quality panels, and affordable price. They worked with us every step of the way and completed the project ahead of schedule in time to catch the Summer Solstice Sun! We couldn't be more pleased with SolarPods technology, design, service, installation, and finished project! September Update: Our first summer electric bills came to $0 plus receiving rebate checks from our electric co-op.

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.

As Google published them when we last read the listing, not a live check. Ring before you drive anywhere.

Who Google shows alongside them

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.

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.

Something wrong here? Tell us and a person will read it.
