    Stay away from Wolf River Electric!! They will win you over with a lower upfront price but you will pay for it for years to come. Their service is simply terrible. We have a 39.4 kW system installed about 5 years ago. A very large system. We made them aware of our problem in May. It is now into August and the problem is still not fixed. Their communication is terrible. Our system required four inverters and an RSD for these inverters. It is clear that the installation was done wrong as somehow water must’ve gotten into the system and appears to have caused a short and fried the inverters and s

    Our solar system was designed and installed nearly 5 years ago and we are very disappointed in it. It was designed to generate 14 megawatts a year but it never achieved much more than 10. The last two years have been less than ten. Wolf River designed a system for us that put 7 of our 37 panels in the total shade of a neighbor’s oak tree, and those panels generate almost nothing from spring to fall. We would put solar on our house again in a heartbeat but not with Wolf River. Giving this review 2 stars instead of 1 because we do have SOME solar generation going on.

    They came to put my solar in one to two years ago, and this past winter, the snow load on my roof tore the conduit apart and left holes in my roof. I had to chase them down numerous times, making phone calls and emails daily to get them out to take a look at it when the spring came..... with holes in my roof. They asked me to get on the roof and take a picture for them. This is on the third story. I asked them just to send someone out to fix 'cause I'm concerned about the damage it was doing to my roof, and I heard crickets, period. They then scheduled a time and never showed up, and then they

    I had a great experience with Wolf Electric installing my solar panels. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. The team was professional, communicated well throughout the process, and the installation was completed without any …

    Wolf River Electric stepped in and was able to take over our solar panel project and get it completed. They were great to work with and were very helpful in getting our project done in a timely manner.

    Great detail heading into the installation. Explained everything during the process. Installation was easy and created no issues. At every step of the way, Wolf River was ready to answer my questions and let me know what next steps were. Getting our first electrical bill covered completely by solar power was a thrill! Would recommend this company for anyone interested in taking the jump!

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.

  • Warranty

    “reflected in our 25-year workmanship warranty. We invite you to explore our…”

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

Elsewhere

  • Google also lists this company under electrical and tutoring.
  • It is also reviewed on the Better Business Bureau. 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 Pinterest, LinkedIn, Instagram, X and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.

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.
