Best Solar Panels in Phoenix, AZ

They were able to come out the same day to get a light working and install an outlet on our patio. I had called all over for someone to be able to come that day and had been striking out left and right. They were very professional and quick to get the repair done.

One of our neighbors had solar installed about a year ago by Sunny Energy so when we considered adding solar to our 2,700 square foot home in North Scottsdale we first spoke with our neighbor and then called the same sales person, Dave Vernon, at Sunny Energy.  

We met with Dave Vernon back in June 2020 to learn about solar and to get a proposal.  Dave was very responsive, professional, and above all - he was honest.  No high pressure sales tactics.  

We chose Sunny Energy and had 16 PV panels installed in late August 2020 by their installation crew which was 5 installers who also did the installation professionally and cleaned all areas around our home.  The installers all had many years of experience and were not sub-contractors.

After the installation, we passed the City of Scottsdale and APS inspections.  Our solar PV system went live on 9/2/2020 using 16 panels and Solar Edge inverter which communicates with our phone app and system monitoring.  

The whole team at Sunny Energy had excellent communications and customer service.  The project coordinator, Taylor, and others on our  project team were very responsive, friendly, and informative.  They  let us know the progress of each step from start to finish.

FYI: we also looked at Tesla Solar but decided against Tesla after we looked at many concerning customer reviews about Tesla Solar's poor customer service.  

We would recommend Sunny Energy.

We had a leak in our roof and hired Caliber to come out and fix it, they were very responsive and couldn't beat the price. So professional, highly recommend.

Anthony and Scott were great to work with. We felt very comfortable with them and not to mention their pricing was better than 3 other competitors. Installation took time as it was right before the APS hike. I'm greatly pleased with my solar panels and best of all...my $20 APS bill. The installers were courteous and professional. We'd strongly recommend Aneva Solar!

Had a guy come out to quote moving the electrical components for a pool filter. Guy who came out first contacted me to let me know he was running late. He very much sounded like he had just rolled out of bed on the phone, and didn't seem like his morning coffee had kicked in by the time he arrived at my place. In all, he seemed barely interested in the job, took no pictures, was in-and-out in less than five minutes. I'd love to be able to say whether or not their pricing was appropriate, but I never received a quote.

I give two stars for calling me up and letting me know they were running late (a courtesy I appreciate), and for at least showing up. But considering the lack of interest, and for ghosting me, that's as far as I can go.

Excellant people from the 1st consult all the way to the installation. Very professional yet personable. We had both a solar tube and a roof fan installed. Both were complicated, yet expertly installed. LOVE the bright bathroom!!!

Like most people I did my research when looking into a Solar company for my home.   I spoke with three companies and received three quotes.  Black Platinum was the only company that didn't have a salesperson come to my house and give a full presentation.  Our initial conversations were handled over the phone or through email.  This is a father and son company (John and John) and they both have a background in home construction.  This is relevant because Black Platinum was the only company I spoke with that didn't use any subcontractors to do their work.  They do it all themselves.  They were also the only company that installed all the electric cables into the attic and through the walls.  This means no conduit running all over the roof and down the sides of the house.  There are also significantly less boxes and equipment mounted on the side of my house.  It all looks super clean as if the house was originally built that way.  

When I initially spoke with John Senior, he explained to me that he is constantly purchasing the latest products because solar technology is moving so fast.  He was very familiar with the different products available and it was obvious to me that he knew what he was talking about.  I researched every piece of equipment they put on my house.  I was very happy to learn that the panels and inverters they are using were listed in the top three of every recent comparison list I could find.  There is a lot of debate online regarding central inverters vs mini inverters.  If you do your own research, make sure you are reading recent articles because so much has changed in the last couple years.  However, I am confident that the latest mini inverters are safer, more efficient and cheaper to repair if you should ever have a problem.  Black Platinum also installs "Pigeon Stop" under every panel to keeps the birds from nesting under them.  I didn't think much about the pigeon stop when they first mentioned it, but the stuff is legit.  It's solid black metal mesh mounted under every panel and will easily last the lifetime of my system.

John (the son) is a super nice guy and runs the operation.  He was very responsive throughout the entire process and supervised everything during installation.  He even answered calls, emails and text messages on weekends and after hours.  It's also worth mentioning that both Johns seem to have really good contacts with the city and the power companies.  This helped when navigating the complexities of two organizations (the city and the power company) who don't really have your best interests in mind.  John took care of everything and had the cell numbers of the people needed to ensure permits and inspections went smoothly.  When the installation was complete, he even used a drone to take some overhead pictures of finished project.

Black Platinum's entire team was professional and friendly and I can't say enough good things about them. The bottom line is that these guys did everything the way I would have done it myself and I felt like their only concern was my satisfaction.

Rooftop Solar installed a solar system in February,2021 and did a great job.  They are a very responsive and customer-driven company.  During the sales process, their price was very competitive and I felt they were honest about the system and the process.  They quoted good equipment, and even ended up upgrading it some (at no extra charge)  to help me meet energy targets without upgrading my circuit breaker box.   We ran into a few gliches with my HOA and they were very supportive and responsive to my needs and the concerns of the HOA.  They really work hard to ensure that their customer is satisfied.  A few panels were not working initially and they followed up immediately with the equipment manufacturer to get it corrected.  They have also followed up with me at my 1 year anniversary to check in.  I highly recommend Rooftop Solar for your PV System.

My father's solar panels were damaged by golf balls.  Only two panels needed to be replaced and his system is 10+ years old.  Darren was able to find compatible panels and they were installed the following week. (The panels were still functioning, so there was no urgency).
Mr. Sunshine was the only company to return my calls and went above and beyond the typical level of effort made by most companies today.  By doing so, my father didn't have to replace the entire system.
Their prices are reasonable and customer service is great.  Highly recommend!

Just had General Solar out to redo my pool solar. My old system was at the end of its useful life and was getting to be a headache to maintain.

Kent and Steve were very patient with me explaining the benefits of their product and what I could expect performance wise from a solar heater for my pool.

They showed up on time and worked diligently to get everything hooked up.

Could not be happier! Highly recommend

Have worked with these guys to get solar for my home. Very professional and very knowledgeable. They also gave me a lower price than the other company that came and showed me what they had. They gave me a low 2.99 interest rate on my solar. I will recommend them to any and all my friends and family.

This was an important decision.  I did my research, compared companies, compared their service, their panels, their reviews, their long term stability.  I guess I need to start with the fact that I am an Elon Musk fan boy, but didn't go with his company.  He wouldn't mind, I'm sure of it.  I had spreadsheets, literature, and a makeshift algorithm for reviewing all of the data.

It came down to two things:  price per KWH and panel quality.  The price per KWH was a tie with another company I checked out, and less than the third.  However, the panels Harmon was going to put on my roof were a higher quality, more efficient panel which meant the system could generate more power than both of the others using the same number of panels.  I liked that.  Plus, the panels are made in the USA and by Sun Power, a large and reputable manufacturer.  After a couple of months of this, I went with Harmon.

When I was talking with them, they assured me that they go through all of the necessary processes with the town, the HOA, and everyone else.  They did not lie.  They made sure they got all of the necessary permits, inspections, and HOA approval.  My HOA was slow to get back to them, but their followup was second to none.  The installation went off without a hitch.  Their installers were professional and courteous and did an amazing job.  The system has to be hooked into your wifi so it can be monitored remotely.  They brought the wire into my house near where my router was set up.  A few months later, I switched cable providers and moved the router.  They came back in, installed a device that send wifi through my power outlets, and moved their hardware... at no charge to me.  I like these guys.  I still get an email every now and then from the sales guy who got me set up.

The system has been running for almost a year now, and I saved $600 on my energy bill this year.  That is 30% over last year.  I couldn't be happier.

One cautionary tale with the solar lease that does not reflect AT ALL on Harmon, it is possible with any company you choose.  When someone buys your house, they have to assume the lease.  They also need to qualify as if it were a loan, because, basically, it is.  Be aware that a sale of your house might fall through because the buyer is unable to qualify for the solar lease.  However, it is so inexpensive that if a buyer can't qualify, they are more than likely not going to make it to closing at the cost of your house.  This happened to us a couple of months ago.  In the end, this is the best purchase for my house I could have made.  Everyone should have solar panels in this state.  I whole heartedly recommend Harmon Solar

***Update*** 8/5/22 Solar's finally up and running thanks to my husbands dogged pursuit of fixing the mess we'd been served. When the owners read my google review they reached out and showed a sincere desire to make things right. They were surprised and dismayed at all the problems we'd encountered and reduced our final payment by $1000. Owner Russ even came to the house today to ensure the system was turned on properly. I'm happy to update my review and give AEP 4 stars.

Matt responded quickly, came  the next day, right on time, and had mask for safety. Highly recommend

We live in Sun City and after looking into various solar companies we settled on Arizona Solar Solutions and have been extremely happy with our decision. Rich who was our main contact has been wonderful to deal with as has every person we have dealt with.  Everything went smoothly and we could not be happier.

I add pics to my review showing per my salesman the 2022 Power Cell comes w/ a generator  as you see my original quote went up 33000 ( No Titan, that was not a quick one to get me started . I was going to pass until he saw my needs and want of a powercell w/generator)  When I registered my power cell per, the pic says I must register my generator separately Ric Williams

So I have had solar city for over a year now and they as a company keep getting worse. They won't return phone calls I have open issues with them for a year and will not respond. They take my call make me believe they will work on the issue and then nothing. This company is terrible after they have you locked in for 20 years. The issue I now have is that the bill says that I owe them three months of payments. I do not and have talked to them and they agree that I do not owe them three passed months but they don't remove it. You cannot talk to anyone in billing so you get customer care and they say it's a billing issue and they are working with them. But in fact the customer care cannot get ahold of billing. I wonder if there is a billing department. I do not trust them for auto payments out of my bank account so we send the payments in via cashier check. Let me tell you I love having solar but hate that it is this company or lack of a respectable company I am sad I fell for. If you are thinking of a solar lease do your homework and find someone else.  I wish I could take it off and give the company less than one star but I'm out of luck just like I am for signing with this company.
