Best Solar Panels in Phoenix, AZ

Excellent! AZ SUN SERVICES My experience with AZ Sun Services from start to finish was exactly what I'd hoped for.  Before even meeting with the providers in my area I spent weeks researching and learning about solar power, solar panels, installation, and cost.  I wanted to be sure I already understood what I needed and didn't need and what I was and was not going to agree to.  All I needed was to speak with a solar professional to make sure I knew what I was going to do would be mostly right.  I then decided that I would not agree to anything until I'd met with at least 5 providers.  3 of the 5 reps I met with really turned on me when I told them I was not even going to consider their offers until I'd heard from 5 providers.  The 3rd provider I met with was Matt Nam, my AZ Sun Services sales rep. He was not pushy or overly aggressive.  We had a short and simple conversation about my options, the cost, and what he recommended.  I also met with 4 other providers and from the greeting to the moment they left I felt like they were just trying to force me into the sale.  They "argued" every doubt/question I brought up or "tried" to make me feel stupid for asking what I'd asked or doubting what they'd promised.  Before we even discussed what could or could not be done, they'd ask if I met with anyone else.  Then they'd spend the next 15 mins bashing every other provider that I'd mentioned.  Matt did not spend most of his time bashing other services.  They also made sure to imply that I'd lose any offer they made if they left without making me sign something.  I recommend AZ Sun Services strictly based on my sales experience, the "actual" performance of my hardware, and the service and communication provided after the sale.  I get replies within 24 hrs of every inquiry.  I've had only one issue, that DID NOT impact my service, which was handled by a tech visit to my home within 3 days of my call.  I've had ZERO downtime and have earned an avg of 168$ in credit per month since my panels were switched on.  I asked Matt, what 3 things are most unique about AZ Sun Services?  1) We (AZ Sun Services) are a direct installer so not only do we install for other solar companies (and of course our own solar), but you get the best price possible since we offer installer pricing. **My system cost was less than the other 4 providers I met with, but that was not why I chose AZ Sun Services.**  2) We're a local Arizona company which means we focus solely on the state of Arizona.  3) We offer the lowest interest rates available in the solar industry.**Best rate or the 5 providers I met with**  If that individual ends up going solar with us, you'll also receive a $750 check from us as a thank you.**I did get the full 750$ check the week after my install.  This was the offer for me at the time of my sale so I don't know if it has continued**  I recommend Matt Nam @AZ Sun Services  Install date APR2021 Photos from APS BILL MAY2021-SEP2021 Energy from APS vs Energy to APS data

Sunny Energy recently completed the installation of a 12.775 kW DC solar system for a newly constructed house we moved into last year. Our experience was excellent and Sunny Energy did a exemplary job in designing the system, clearly explaining the costs and financing options, handling the installation, and ensuring all of our questions were addressed. We were very happy with their incentive offer of reimbursing the first year's worth of payments. All paperwork was handled digitally and the installation appointments were done with no obligation on our part to be home. Sunny Energy handled all interactions with our HOA and the city, making the process extremely easy on our end. Finally, Michael McCaffrey did an great virtual final walk through where he made sure all questions regarding the system and mySolarEdge phone app were answered. I would highly recommend Sunny Energy for a solar system installation.

After numerous phone calls and no show appointments to other roofing companies I was lucky to call Caliber.  From the initial phone call to the final tile nailed in place we have been more than pleased.  The communication, THE PRICE, the detail to make our roof 100 percent.   Thank you.

Aneva did the ground installation of the solar panels for us last summer. Yep, their crew worked smack in the middle of it. We do appreciate  all the work the kids had done and it looks awesome and also produces  a lot of energy.
We picked Aneva for the following reasons:
1. Sales guy Mark G is a pro. He looked at our house, consumption and offered a solution that fit us specifically. We did not even think of ground installation but it did turn out to be the best fit for us. When you have an expensive clay tile, installing solar panels on them is not an option- contrary to other contractors belief ;)
2. Crew is wonderful and worked their buts off in this heat. I had to work a lot and was not up to supervising but they really did not need to. Their PM even stopped showing up- but I am sure he would if you prefer more hands on experience.
3. We are getting a Lot of solar even though a tid bit of panels are in a shade in the morning. Aneva has a design person who works with your sales guy to come up with the great design for placement based on the lot or house.
Couple of things to share - hopefully informational and some are general solar related ;)
1. If you want solar and want to finance - use anything but solar financing.. it is predatory and usually comes at 20% upfront fee( yep still legal). We were explicitly told about it by the other bidder but would suggest to Mark to include this bit of info in the discussion.
2.probably would have done a bit more communication upfront as we had no idea what went into plans, approvals until I asked a day before the work started. It turned out great anyway;) and I would rather be hands off than on. bottom line is if you are more of a control freak - your sales guy and front desk are super responsive so just ask them.
3. Whoever was depositing checks along the way (4 payments I believe ) was above replying to emails. Again that's why Mark and front desk are there to help
4. Aneva has a special clean up guy!!! He is awesome and takes care of everything that PM could not
5. I think it takes some time to figure out but generator is really helpful on big ground jobs. Our outlets were not able to carry the needed load. So the crew rolled in one.
6. We had to replace the electric panel and the crew did it wonderfully. But picture having no electricity/ Wi-Fi for half a day in AZ summer...
7 Solar install is still quite expensive but electricity costs from the grid are not going down either. Although we are not completely independent we do enjoy with Aneva's help ;) -generating solar power, paying at this point almost nothing to APS and occasional enjoyment from virtue signaling to all the Prius and Tesla drivers ;) oh yes, and the fed tax refund too

Installed a ceiling fan I purchased. Needed to cut into drywall, mount box and wire to new switch. Did a good job overall at a decent price. Ryan the owner reached out to make sure everything was completed well. He cares that the customer is satisfied, which seems to be absent from companies now a days. Recommend overall for your electrical needs.

We contracted with both Arizona Home Daylight and a roofing company to have 5 solar tubes and a new roof installed at the same time.

Arizona Home Daylight worked great with the roofing company. The project was completed on time and on budget. Arizona Home Daylight did a quality job with great attention to detail. I would recommend them to anyone. We love our new solar tubes. Scott, Scottsdale

We chose Black Platinum Solar & Electric after getting quotes from a few companies.  They also came highly recommended by a friend.  Our friend's recommendation mirrored what you see in many Yelp reviews and our experience matched up.  They're a smaller company so everything was very personal, friendly, and competent.   From the beginning, David was low key, low pressure, and helpful.  He spent over an hour answering all of my questions and explaining the ins and out of solar.  Throughout, he was bending over backwards to not push or pressure for time in any way, which was different than other firms that used expiring credits and changing utility rate structures to subtly pressure to move quickly.  He also never tried to sell any kind of financing package where the installer can make extra fees from the lender.  

Once we decided to move forward, all of the contracts and approvals were electronic, which I appreciated -- it made things very easy.   They communicated how things would work, what they do vs what I do, and how long it would take.  The only things I had to do was submit to my HOA for approval and do some touch up paint in the garage where they wired in a panel.  Black Platinum did everything else with the City and APS.   The panel install took 2 days as planned.  During the following week, a new breaker box was installed and inspections were performed.  They arrived about 20 min early each day of the installation, and the whole crew was extremely friendly and professional.  They kept everything clean and once finished, you couldn't tell they had been here.   John Black came out at the beginning of the first day to introduce himself and the crew and collect an installment.  He really knows his stuff and was more then willing to explain anything I wanted to know.  He was an email away throughout the whole process, including once we were up and running and just getting into the app to see solar production stats.

I think I got a bit lucky with the time of year and with the length of time inspectors and APS can take, but I was up a running 1 month after signing the contracts.  Really impressive!

Overall I'd sum up that trust is important when installing solar because it's a big project on your home.  You don't really know the people doing the work and you have to take a bit of a leap that they are trustworthy and know what they're doing.   John, David and the rest of the Black Platinum crew lived up to what you see in Yelp reviews.   The job was done with extreme competence and they're the nicest people you'll meet.

We had one year anniversary recently & I'd like to list our review of Rooftop Solar.
We live in Buckeye near Surprise in over 55 senior community of Sun City Festival. I know there are lots of solar energy companies but we're glad we chose Rooftop Solar. Our sales rep, Michelle was very knowledgeable & never pushy, project manager, Vanessa was helpful. They took care of minor issues after installation when the builder's one year inspection was done. Great customer service & we highly recommend them for solar energy needs.
We're saving lots of money for energy bill & really happy with our decision.

This company, actually Mr. Sunshine himself, provided a truthful, clear, and concise explanation of the process and outcome of going solar.  No pressure,  I called back 5 times and did not pull the trigger for over two weeks.  During that time I never got a pressure call back.  The quality information sells the product by its self.

I had a solar water heater installed by a different company 2 years ago. I was not  happy with their customer service. Of course they were great when selling you the product then not so much when you have issues. Anyways I called the Sun-Earth company and they referred me to General Solar. I called and they came out the next day, diagnosed my problem in about 90 seconds, had the correct part on the truck and replaced it in about 25 minutes. Problem solved and now i have a good resource should problems arise in the future. I would highly recommend them.

I moved in to SUn city after getting a divorce as a senior and wanted to put solar on the roof. I met Cary after speaking to several salesman and decided that Cary had the best price for me. The work was done. A year ago I contacted Cary and got some extra work done installing a mini split that helped even more. I would recommend galaxy solar to anybody because of the professionalism and care.

I obtained r installation from Harmon and signed a lease with SunRun.  I would recommend both of those companies.  They are efficient and courteous. Harmon installed solar on two of my homes.  The second home was with SunPower leasing.
HOWEVER, the facts are somewhat different than represented by the Harmon salesperson.  My average cost before solar was $175 per month.  My lease is $135 with my first home.  I was told that I would save $40 per month initially and more later as APS fees increased.  In fact, I found that APS still charges ne $20 per month service fee.  They also will PAY ME $03 per KWH for any accumulated excess power I transferred to them by the 1st of each year.  They will also CHARGE ME about September 1st of each year the amount of power I used in excess of what my solar equipment produced since the first of the year.  That charge is $0.14 per KWH.
In total I will pay about the same as I did before I installed solar, Remember, APS will still receive a fee of about $40 per month average which negates my initial savings.
In the long run it will save me a little money.  My second home is just finishing now.
Call APS for clear understanding of all the fees involved.  They also have  a good analysis on their website.

Bought solar system from Russ for my 6,500 sf home, APS bill change from $700 to less than $200 per month in summer, $25.00 in winter.
Great service, enjoy the saving on money and energy.

If you're looking for an electrician, I assure you the 5 star rating is no mistake!

Matt at Apollo Electric does business the way I want and like to do business; the way every company "should" do business.  He makes it easy - one, two, and done!

In need of having ceiling fans installed, I called and Matt answered.  After telling him about the job, he set an appointment.  Then he arrived on time to do the work: fans installed with new switches.

I couldn't be happier.  One, two, and done!

We compared a couple of companies and felt we were getting a better deal overall from AZ. Solar Solutions.   They worked tirelessly to install our system and when a problem arose, they were here to fix it quickly.

We have been producing nearly 100% of our energy since April when we became fully operational.   Even on the few cloudy days we have in Arizona, we're generating energy.   So happy to have final made the decision to 'go green'.

Stay away from this company, Titan Solar will promise you $1000 toward your true up, and multiple $250 gift cards for referrals.  But the reality is, it has been almost 11 months and we still haven't had our solar turned on.  They will not return a phone call, it is as if we never existed.  Worst mistake for solar we could have made.  This is the most dysfunctional, disorganize company I have ever dealt with. It just goes to show, if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.  Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

Hi all. Wanted to give a 6 month update - pros and con's and some good tips. I apologize to folks that sent me messages directly, I didn't realize how yelp messages worked.  

First off, getting electrical construction stuff done to your house is very difficult. There are lots of permits and approvals required. Be prepared for a lengthy process of getting plans approved, work scheduled, inspections scheduled and approved etc. It took a while for ours to get done, but it was worth the wait. Our roof has flat cement tiles - easier to walk on and install stuff on, I'm not aware of any damaged tiles, but if your roof has those beautiful curved tiles, I would expect a harder install process as one reviewer can attest. I think that Solar City should send their "crack" team of repair dudes to that guys house to make it right and post new pictures of nice matching tiles.

Pro's: The panels are installed and working like they should. We are satisfied with their performance and we are seeing cost savings every month. I can't tell how much because we were on the monthly average plan, so we still have a positive balance with SRP. Our monthly balanced payment amount was 225-240 per month year round.  We are paying less than that every month with the summer rapidly approaching.
I contacted Solar City a few times and got good service every time. Once to ask about the "flip the switch" to activate the panels ( I thought I was supposed to do that but there was one final inspection by SRP and Solar City remaining - they came out, did the inspection and they flipped the switch).
Another time was to express my indignation about a 15 dollar surcharge added to my bill because I did not allow them to withdraw directly from my bank account. I had set up an automatic bill pay yet that wasn't the same thing to them. The 15 dollar surcharge is in the contract, so while I was unhappy about it, I did sign the contract. I found a solution. I have multiple bank accounts (due to relocating to Phoenix) and one is my active account and the other has a small savings and check balance to remain active. Now I send a "payment" to my secondary account and let them take their money from the secondary account. They get their money, I save 15 dollars and my main checking account is isolated from "auto debit" robots.  
You are helping reduce the load on the grid during peak times! This helps avoid citywide brownouts because of too much demand and not enough coming from the power plants. SRP will have to shut down one of their big coal plants soon (thanks EPA) and that means more stress on their grid. Anything to reduce that stress is a good thing, and we are going green to boot...

Con's: You have installers up on your roof putting stuff up there. Not every install team is comprised of anal-retentive engineers, so be prepared for the possibility of a bit of stuff left laying around (there is a water bottle that fell onto a lower level that is still there, a couple pieces of scrap that fell from the roof etc). Nothing that was worthy of a complaint call, but just know that construction is messy.
I'm not seeing evidence that SRP is "buying" our excess electricity, they install these new electronic meters, so you can't see the wheel spinning backwards and the numbers count in reverse or anything like that. Our typical bill from SRP has a solar connection fee of about 17 bucks, and a small balance of electricity that we purchase, so maybe there is some magical process that happens.
It will take some time from the day that you sign the agreement to when they go live. Ours went pretty quickly and it was still around 2-3 months from signed deal to generating electricity. A friend's took more like 6 months, but they are generating electricity now too.

Tip: Remember that you signed an agreement to buy the electricity from your panels - use it! It took us a while to get into the mode of running stuff during the daylight hours (dishwasher, laundry, pool pump, and we keep the AC about 4-5 degrees cooler during the day now). Even doing all that stuff during a sunny day, we generate more than we use (but just barely).
Solar City has met every obligation, treated us with respect, and even sent us a referral check as they advertised. Read the contract, understand what you are agreeing to and call them if you have questions - they are decent folks.
Hold your head up! You are helping the environment, helping reduce strain on the grid and saving money on your bills - all good things.
