8MSolar

Established: 2015

EnergySage Rating Value: 5.0 from 107 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

I waited a while before writing a review on 8MSolar because I wanted to have some experience with living with our system before writing a review. In addition, our powerwall installation was delayed several times due to Tesla delaying the shipment multiple times which was beyond the control of 8MSolar.

Emerald Energy LLC

Established: 2009

EnergySage Rating Value: 5.0 from 93 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

I’ve got nothing but good things to say about Emerald Energy. John was easy to get in touch with, fast to respond and kept me in the loop about a replacement part on order. While some companies need to be called multiple times to follow up on an order or job, Emerald Energy was proactive and handled the job quickly. They were courteous, professional, happy to answer my questions, and provided information in an easy-to-understand way.

The last review from EnergySage:

Sun Dollar is a fantastic local company. I worked closely with Greg Resch, who guided me though the process of installing a solar panel system on the roof of my residence in Carrboro. Greg knows his stuff, and I was impressed by the competence of the entire team. The install process was quick – 2 days – and my wife and I feel that the installation is performing really well. Greg helped us to handle technical issues that arose after the install, related to WiFi monitoring. Sun Dollar is a company that continues to work with you after installation. Greg and Dan also helped us to deal with the Duke Energy rebate situation, where Duke’s website/server was overloaded on the application day. Thanks to Sun Dollar’s persistence, I will be receiving the rebate. I love this company – they are local, hardworking, and smart.

Yes Solar Solutions

Established: 2009

EnergySage Rating Value: 5.0 from 32 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

I met with three solar vendors. Sadly, I somehow knew more than one of them when it came to the current laws in place and how long they would be valid and apply to my situation. The second took wild stabs at trying to explain how the government tax credits work – I walked away more confused. The third, Yes Solar Solutions, went through the normal elevator speeches but as they finished their opening statement they didn’t make that “we’ll lets see what we’re gonna put on your roof” transition. The associate stopped and asked how many questions that generated and then proceeded to listen to the questions I had. I wasn’t cut off and I wasn’t given cookie cutter replies. You know those replies that are based on keywords a sales person picks out of your question!

Tayco Electric & Solar

Established: 2006

EnergySage Rating Value: 5.0 from 38 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

We love our solar panels! We have wanted to be more self sufficient and after a tornado storm left us without power for 36hr on Feb, we decided it was time. We chose Tayco / Sunpower Bc of the micro inverter on each panel, and the company also allowed us to purchase Tesla powerwalls. We are so happy, and they have been so wonderful to work with. RECOMMEND RECOMMEND RECOMMEND!!!

Renu Energy Solutions

Established: 2010

EnergySage Rating Value: 5.0 from 170 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

Renu Energy Solutions completed our solar panel installation this week. The experience has be great from the start. No matter what phase of the project, the Renu team took the time to answer all of our questions. The initial consultation was with Bill Winker. Not only did Bill answer all of our questions, but he stepped us through all of our options for choosing the right panels for us. Bill did a great job of educating us about going solar. On installation day, Matt lead the installation team and changed the panel layout on the fly to fit our roof. He and the team never missed a beat even with the curveball. Jordan Thomas, last team member onsite, dealt with a minor configuration issue keeping all the panels from showing on the monitoring app. He troubleshot the issue and resolved it quickly. We were well informed each step of the way by Calli Hudgins our project coordinator. Calli stayed on top of everything and kept us updated every step of the journey. I would highly recommend Renu Energy Solutions if you are considering going solar. Great people and couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

The last review from EnergySage:

Loved working with BTS and super happy I went with them. Installed a 9.125kw system with LG panels and enphase microinverters. They easily beat out the next closest quote and used all the same quality materials. Local company and very responsive – I asked so many questions and they were always very receptive and helpful. Can’t say enough great things about them!
