    Ok, I know a lot of solar companies are out there. Normally being the research heavy person I am, I would be looking at multiple companies before making a decision Not so with PV for us. After our first interaction, two years ago, with Mike, Ben and the team at Eco-Solar, it wasn't even a question in the minds of my wife and I. We would go with them again. The sales, service and install were service oriented, fair in price and quicker than Speedy Gonzales and the Road Runner. They helped appropriately size my need of additional panels for our new EV and growing family. Price was fair and moved pretty quickly through the process The only delay we had was for them to figure out how to best connect the new panels with our older install. They kept me in the loop and made it all possible to get things done quickly, efficiently and superbly The install team of Mo, Gavin and Kelii have been great to work with. They are polite, hard working, and were able to answer all my questions. I'm staring out my window as they are getting everything finished and eagerly waiting to see my electric bill evaporate. Thanks guys and hoping to do business with you again in the future

    Truly an awesome company! I don't know why it took me so long to find these guys but I'm sure glad I did. I needed a company that would remove and replace my leased SunRun PV system so that I could reroof and I also wanted to add an additional PV system on the side. After contacting more than a handful of other local solar companies all I got was the run around with non responsive and overly expensive BS which was a total waste of my time. Finally, I found Michael at Eco Solar. He is incredibly responsive, knowledgeable and quoted me a price I was more than happy with. He and the Eco Solar team took care of everything for me from permits, to seamlessly working with SunRun, Heco, and my roofing contractor to ensure everything went smoothly. The install team, Gavin, Mo, and Keli'i arrived on time and worked quickly. They did an excellent job. Eco Solar is punctual, clean, providing top notch service at beyond a fair price.

    Absolutely awesome service! Our family set up a meeting with Michael F. About a month ago and he was able to lay out exactly the costs, tax incentives, how much we would save, etc. I dragged my feet for a few weeks, until finally deciding our family should definitely get our solar done. I called Mike to tell him we were ready and this is how it went... Signed the contract and submitted my permit application that day. Next day, RECEIVED our permit (you read that right, one day for a permit). Following day, FULLY INSTALLED our solar with our Tesla batteries. If you're keeping track, that's 3 DAYS, not weeks or months, of installing our solar. The communication is top notch also. Team was great, even making sure aesthetics were important in the install. Michael will even meet with you to go over the app and all its uses to make sure to get the most out of the system. Highly recommend this company.

    They very unreliable company most stressful I ever investment I ever made. Eco solar installed me 18 Samsung panels $1350 per panel total $23500 comes 20 years warranty. The following year panels started dying one by one eco solar refused to replace them saying Samsung no longer makes panel, so far I have replaced 11 panels with my o n moneys. When heavy rain comes my roof underneath the panels leaks eco solar came did some patches but another heavy rain came and leaks still there same exact location i felt that eco solar is very unwilling so I bought some gallons Henry patches from Home Depot remove 4 panels where I suspected leaking, I cleaned the area thoroughly i patches the area so far so good roof is ugly good thing is covered by the panels. Btw my panels still under warranty to this day so I reached out to eco solar maybe things changed but instead eco solar John Osaki emailed me to look for another solar company to replace my panels on my own expense what an insult

    The set up was quick, the guys worked hard An explained the steps clearly as needed. Friendly and easy to talk to. From the consultation to the communication from office an email process the steps was very EZ. 5 recommend ECO SOLAR to everyone!!!! Already had 20 panels and 2 battery's Added 8 more panels and the 2 inverters to make everything run smoothly and together.

    I reached out to Eco Solar after reading reviews and randomly hearing about their service and pricing from a mutual acquantance. Michael responded within hours of my inquiry and reached out to schedule a meeting at my residence. At our first meeting he had already researched the community energy trends, the weather patterns, and the history of the home. He quoted me based on our home dynamics along with his research findings. Michael laid out the timelines, requirements, costs, and contacts. I had to do some myself (we didn't have a plot diagram so I needed to pick one up from county). I decided to finance the system and install, also an option Eco Solar had recommendations for (no payments or interest for 18 months; awesome since we will receive a massive tax credit so we can pay on less than half the quoted price when the time comes). The entire process took several weeks but Michael and his team kept me informed at every checkpoint and responded immediately when I had questions. The install team took 3-4 hours for the PV panels and battery install and left a clean, professional looking product (see pics). Eco Solar has my full recommendation for anyone who is in the solar energy market. Ask for Michael, you'll get a home grown, no nonsense, professional consultation.

    From my initial contact with the solar designer, Kirby Mack until present, my experience working with Sun Power has been nothing but awesome. Even after my PV solar system was installed, Kirby helped me understand everything PV solar and especially with HECO's Customer-Grid Supply (CGS) program and the Smart Export (SE) program. I first contacted Kirby back in October 2022 and he went over everything from HECO billing, permitting, pricing for the PV solar system, the design and the installation of the entire system, and the Tesla app for the Powerwall. The building permit took seven months for approval which I believe should've been sooner, but it's the Honolulu C&C. Enough said. On the day of the installation, the full Sun Power crew was present and they only took three hours to complete the installation. They had to shut off the power for about 30 minutes but once they turned it back on, the entire PV solar system was up and running. The crew cleaned up all the debris once they were done, took some photos of their work, then left a little before 11am. Kirby was on it after the installation was completed. He followed up with me even while he was going through personal issues involving his health. I asked Kirby for some aerial photos of the solar panels and he came by 2 weeks later and took a couple photos with his drone. The operations supervisor, Coleen Murphy emailed me the photos of the panels the crew had taken and they look awesome! Kirby even gifted my family and I with an electric burner to use during a storm instead of using my kitchen range/stovetop and avoid draining out the Tesla Powerwall completely. If you're going to install a PV solar system, I recommend working with Sun Power. Kirby, you the man! Thank you for everything! I saved a lot money! I love seeing my HECO bill under $100!

    Yep, it was time to step up to a Photovoltaic system for our house in Halawa Heights. We had already replaced the Solar panels for the hot water and Kirby said when we were ready to go total PV to let him know....Hi Kirby, we're ready! The house was measured and we decided we wanted the panels installed on the carport rather than the house roof. The area gets sun all day so it was decided 30 panels would be needed and there was more than enough space for it to work. The roof was recovered with fabric and coated three times with a high grade reflective coating. Panels went up several days later. As you can see from the attached photos they did a great job and we're now the proud owners of a new PV system. Goodby Hawn Elec. This company was professional from start to finish. The installers were polite, fairly quiet and cleaned away all the rubbish. Highly recommend you give them a call if you're even thinking about it. Kirby will give you everything you need to help you.

    After getting over $800 per month electric bills we had to get solar (and we're only a family of 3). When we finally decided make the commitment and got our system installed in January 2024, we are so glad we did it. Michael French was thorough and personable. Eco Solar was able to install our residential system within a day. Michael has done a few follow ups just to check in with us. After 6 months of using the system. Our monthly bill now much more reasonable normally less than $150 a month so far.. and the savings we can apply to our solar loan.

Its hard as we are paying for the solar and have to pay high utility bills, and we know there are a lot others in the same situation like us. When Independent Energy Hawaii step's in. They coordinated with us, check the system and provided us an update regarding why the system went down and will it be recovered. They proposed a long term fix not just fixing the current issue which is super appreciated. The company is very transparent and honest which amazed me. From the schedule coordination, onsite visit and after service they are hands on. After a the service visit, they sent us the full service report regarding the summary of the visit, what was performed what they found, what they fix and what needs to be fixed. For customer's like us which are not very techy or does not have a lot of knowledge in solar having this kind of company to service us which explains everything is very helpful they help us understand the system how to take care of it and all that. To the Independent Energy team, thank you so much I will definitely recommend you to anyone that needs solar and battery installed in their house or anyone that needs someone to service their systen.

Installation had a few hiccups because our house is old, weird, and probably very hard to work with, but we're very happy with our system. All the kinks that the team had to work through were fixed/solved in a very timely and quality manner. The only problem we had was getting updates between signing our agreement and installation. Understandably we waited pretty long to hear anything about installation due to the overload all solar companies were experiencing due to the federal tax credit being cut next year. Our drawings were back logged, not because of HI Power, but because of the approvals they were waiting for. But I had to reach out to multiple people at multiple times before someone could explain this to me. This really stressed us out for a bit that no one was getting back to us, but once they explained all the issues they were facing, everything worked out perfectly. I would still like to recommend this company compared to other bigger companies based off of my parent's and grandparent's experiences.

    We had a great experience working with Julian and the Solartech team here on Oahu. From the start…read moreJulian didn't come across as a typical sales rep at all -- he felt more like a knowledgeable industry expert who offered thoughtful, objective opinions about different technologies and brands. Before meeting him, I spoke with two other solar companies. One rep came on extremely strong and the meeting felt very sales-driven and impersonal, which made it hard to trust the information being presented. The other rep seemed to still be in training and had to run nearly every question through a senior colleague. Working with Julian was a relief. He's clearly experienced and communicates in a smart, casual, and very approachable way. We also had a great experience with Jelly and Brandi from the Solartech administrative team--they were easy to work with and helped keep everything moving smoothly. Solartech's digital quote platform made comparing options and selecting our plan simple and easy to understand. We ultimately decided against Tesla batteries after learning about potential overheating issues, which can be a concern in a place as hot as Hawaii. We went with Enphase we're happy with our choice. The installation team was excellent as well. Nainoa, the lead electrician on our project, is a total pro--easy to talk to, great at problem-solving, and he helped us quickly figure out a battery placement challenge. He completed the electrical work in just a few hours. During the panel installation, the crew accidentally drilled through part of our roof which caused a small leak, but they responded immediately and repaired it right away. Everything was patched up and looks good as new. We really appreciated how quickly they addressed the situation. Post-purchase support has been just as strong. I had some questions about how our system was pulling power from the grid, and Julian took the time to explain everything. It turned out to be more of a settings preference than an issue. He followed up with helpful explainer videos and even called a week later to make sure everything made sense. Overall, we're very happy with the experience and appreciate the professionalism, transparency, and support from the whole Solartech team.
