Jacob was recommended to us by a friend. As soon as we met with Jake, it was clear he is extremely knowledgeable about solar and energy backup. We contracted with him to install a back up battery for our solar. Jake handled all the permit pulling, appointments for inspections and kept us updated on everything. He has an amazing group of coworkers who helped and were knowledgeable as well. Jake and his team were prompt and tidy. We are truly grateful and appreciative to Jacob and Alternative Energy Solutions. Highly recommend! read more

Jake showed up within timeframe appointment set, he listened to the details of my electrical problem, assessed the situation, used problem-solving, critical-thinking & his professionalism to fix the problem most efficiently and cost effective. He identified other areas of improvement (free consultation) at no cost and made suggestions. Jake is very personalable, friendly, professional and knowledgeable in the electrician field. I highly recommend Jake, you will not be disappointed, so worth the cost. read more

I'm not a bot review. I've had estimates from over 6 companies over 2 years and did not feel comfortable buying until I trusted the installer Hands down, best, most honest person I've spoken to about solar installation on my house. He's tough to get scheduled because he does all the work with a small trusted crew. He's patient; he has a passion for the technology. He gives you knowledgable advice instead of up charging. Our system was installed error free with the latest technology. Before we started construction, SCE signed off on the installation and less than a week after the permit was signed off, SCE granted permission to operate. There is nothing to complain about and beyond satisfied. . read more

Jake is a knowledgeable, responsive, and helpful resource if you are considering solar! He came out and did a site visit, has a no pressure approach, and encouraged getting several bids to make sure we felt comfortable with his proposal. He is a real salt of the earth gentleman and runs an honest small business. Would highly recommend! read more

We are so happy we went with Jake. He was terrific - walked me through the process, answered my many question, and now we have a wonderful system that works and sleep better at night knowing that with the power wall, we can run our system off grid without worry if there is ever a major power issue. Meanwhile our power usage with SCE is essentially nil - and we just got our permission to operate so now we are sending energy back to SCE. In every way we are happy with Jake and his company and the solar system that he installed. Highly recommend. read more

Jake, the owner is a fantastic electrician. Not only is he a nice guy, easy to talk to but was also no BS and worked with me for a very specific and untraditional solar install. I found his pricing to be very fair and honest and he went above and beyond during and after the install. I added an EG4 12kpv inverter/battery combo and more panels on top of my existing Enphase system and was a bit unsure if it all would work well, but Jake helped me get it setup properly and quickly rewired my existing panel and installed a new critical loads panel as well. He even solved a strange intermittent neutral issue that was on my main service line. If he hadn't caught that (unrelated to the work he had done) I could have had some serious damage to my electronics. All in all I was lucky to have found him and can't say enough good things! Its hard to find honest, and solid tradespeople out there. Even someone like myself that does A LOT of DIY and research before embarking on a project have been ripped off by other tradespeople with high reviews. I think a lot of people out there don't know they are being ripped off, hence the good reviews on some dodgy businesses. Jake is one of the good ones and I can attest to that. He also came out for a free site walk initially and always responded quickly to texts. We also completed the project faster than I'd thought. 10/10 and now I have a solid electrician for anything that comes up in the future! read more

I had contracted Alternative Energy Solutions to install a Wall Connector and I'm very happy with the end product. He took the time to walk through different installation options, the benefits and downsides of each which helped me make an informed decision on what connector to use for my car. Couldn't be happier with the work. read more

We've worked with Jake on several electrical jobs over the past year and a half including: installing our solar system, an EV outlet in our garage, an outlet for our electrical dryer, an outdoor outlet and a new light fixture above our garage. He's always friendly, responsive, reliable, reasonably priced and does high quality work - a great experience all around, every time. Highly recommend! read more

Just moved into an older condo earlier this year and had the owner Jake come out to help me with some smaller electrical jobs. He installed outlets and updated existing ones, and changed out my dining room lighting fixture. He was fast and efficient and even cleaned up after himself! As a courtesy- he made sure an old door bell system had no live wires and was safe for my husband and I to uninstall. (That was really appreciated!) With his quality of work, professionalism, & fair pricing- Definitely would recommend!! read more
