    Amazing Sunpower panels, world class service and outstanding experience. We initially installed 43 panels a year ago (1/2021) and then added an additional 12 panels several months later. We have generated so much energy and the savings keep coming. Kyle Solomon is the reason we started with Empower, and keep recommending it to our friends. Kyle was professional, knowledgeable and knew the product inside out. He was patient with all our detailed questions and provided much assurance that this investment was worth it. He was able to calculate the numbers and articulate the entire process in a way that anyone could understand. We never felt rushed or pressured when we talked to Kyle. He was extremely professional and we couldn't have ask for a better Sales Professional. Byron was extremely efficient and patient with us as well. He gave us systematic updates every 2 weeks and we felt he guided and hand-held us through the entire installation process. He got our plans approved by the DOB so expediently and our panels installed in such a short timeline. Byron then coordinated with Jared (who came to install). We then had Alexandra coordinate our 12 add-on panels; again Jared came to install. I wanted to thank you Empower and the staff we've dealt with for all the help they've provided from start to finish. There are a lot of solar companies out there and you guys made the experience as comfortable and reassuring as possible. And you were mindful with our request to get it installed ASAP. IF YOU'RE GOING TO INSTALL SOLAR PANELS- GET THEM ALL INSTALLED IN ONE SHOT. DON'T UNDERSHOOT THE NUMBER AND ADD PANELS LATER. The only criticism I can give is that when they came to install the additional 12 panels-- they put too many panels on 1 string so the breaker kept going off-- leaving us with days to weeks without production on multiple panels. It took 6 site visits over 3 months (May-July 2021) to trouble shoot out which string was overloaded and to fix the problem. Overall, we felt not only did we get the most reliable solar panels in the market; the buying/installing experience was equal in caliber to the reputation of the solar panels. You guys live up to the brand of Sunpower. Thanks again for the great great experience.

    11.2 kW SunPower Solar Panel System installed by Empower! 117% powered by the Sun now!! We couldn't be more impressed with the sales staff, office staff, installation teams and the system itself is amazing! What a great company! We did our homework for several years, prepping for this and finally pulled the trigger. SunPower panels are rated the highest of ANY made, and Empower is a terrific company to work with. They made the process easy, with absolutely NO 'headaches'. Love watching the meter go backwards!

    I was absolutely amazed the great service, outstanding knowledge and great work that empower did for me and my family. My PSEG bill went down from 300s to $10 per month. I shopped around for a few months getting feedback from various companies and then spoke with Corey @ EmPower. He helped us through the entire process and answered all the questions that i had been skeptical with from other companies. He had an answer for every question i had (did extensive research). He broke down the expenses and provided us with the savings and timeline. From the system that we have, we will be getting 108% return. I am also getting a substantial tax credit and an amazing 18 month no interest loan as well. The installation team led by a young guy named Andrew was better than expected. he was very professional and went out of his way to accompany us with the entire installation (from working with the days we were available to coming back at night to do the interior work). I would highly recommend Corey R as a salesperson...send him an email,linked in,FB, or contact him via the company. by far, the best i've ever expected.

    I cannot say enough how absolutely satisfied that I am that I went SOLAR - but even happier that I went with SunPower by Empower! This was by far the best home improvement project I have ever undertaken - no regrets, no guessing, complete confidence and satisfaction. I had gone to a local home improvement show and was bombarded by numerous solar companies and completely confused, disenfranchised and gave up on proceeding with a system. Until I heard about EmPower. From the day COREY ROBERTS contacted me and worked to assess my situation, to sitting down and thoroughly explaining ever aspect of this proposal and signing the paperwork to proceed, he was absolutely no pressure and professional! Next steps by DYLAN ROLLERI to get my project going were completely seamless. He knew I was intent on making this a speedy process and I am glad I was able to assist with getting my permits approved. Dylan maintained constant contact and I knew at any moment exactly where we were in the process. Dylan was very accommodating in setting up delivery and installation, working around my crazy schedule. Onsite installation by DAVID MECKES was lightning fast! His entire team was so friendly, efficient and professional. They banged out my project quicker than I could have imagined. David's follow up visit to complete the work and commission wrapped everything up in a nice package! So far my system has met all of my expectations! So easy to monitor and the panels look great! I will be happy to mention my chance run in with SAM at the beach a few days ago; as one of my installer he had such kind words and his comments were sincere and appreciated! Once again, THANK YOU. I look forward to many years with the best Solar Panel System product and team around!

    I moved into my new house after Hurricane Sandy destroyed my old one. Soon after moving in 2015 we began interviews for solar. We took our time as our accountant wanted us to wait until we were here over a year to see our bills and of course things come up along the way. During that time I had many companies come while I investigated panel types and as much as I could learn. None of the companies I interviewed to the point of a roof evaluation told me I needed a new roof with exception to EmPower. I ended up having many roofers come and my roof was in terrible shape. All the other companies were willing to install even though in the end I would have had to have them come and remove, store and reinstall out of my pocket. That being said besides that Corey our salesman went above and beyond every step of the way. He came to my home more then once and spent so much time with us. He answered every call, email and questions I had. Through all our decisions he was patient and professional and honest with us. The financing portion of this was also helpful and transparent and as easy as one could expect. Our project manager Byron at the next stages through install as well as the crew that was here were amazing. You wouldn't have known we had men on our roof because they were impeccably clean and courteous and did a fantastic. As for performance of my panels I can't say enough for this. My panels are providing more then I need and sending back to the grid despite being February and lots of rainy days

    Day after install by Empower.  Very happy!!!!

He walked us through the process, the benefits of solar and what set up makes most sense for us. He also was able to get us great pricing which was almost 10% lower than other estimates. Paperwork and payment was a breeze! Once the permit was approved (took about 5 weeks after signing the agreement), they came and installed the panels in a few days which was impressive (probably lucked out with availability). The install crew (was literally an army! about 8-9 guys) came promptly at 7:45AM (15 minutes early which was great) and was finished by 1PM. The head of the crew walked me through the process and closed out great showing me the app and next steps. Clean up was also fantastic as nothing was left behind. Currently we are waiting for the inspection so we can start banking the unused solar for future use. But still we are generating over 45 kWh daily (on a sunny day) and our average usage is about 30 (we have 2 EV's) so we are about 150% efficiency which is great. Though we can not bank yet, we are still utilizing solar power so our electric bill for the past week will be minimal. All in all, SUNation Energy is extremely professional, very knowledgeable and customer service seems to be a top priority to them. My neighbor and inlaws are now interested in solar and will be referring them to SUNation and Rob Moser - they also have very nice cash incentives for referrals!!!

For whatever reason, my electric bill was out of control. I interviewed every solar company in the Long Island area that existed for the past six years. I listened, I got educated. They all said they were the best and the others were the worst. They were all about making a sale, not about what my needs. I caught so many of them in lies with mis-representing how solar would benefit me. Many of them provided saving estimates that were totally inaccurate. Why did the competitors fabricate? They were only concerned about making a sale to reach a quota. Not looking out for me and my family. After sitting on the sidelines for six years of investigating solar, I was introduced to Chris Hoffman, President and owner of PREMIER SOLAR SOLUTIONS. I placed a call to Chris only to find out he was on vacation with his family in Phoenix and due back in 7 days. Well......in less than 15 minutes I got a call from Chris Hoffman, (on vacation) where he took 45 minutes of his family vacation time to answer all questions regarding my solar needs. I had a proposal from him the next day. (on vacation) The rest was history. I hired Premiere Solar solutions because Chris Hoffman explained how he and his company works and what was the best solar installation for my needs. He never discussed or brought up a competitor or mentioned why his company is better than the competition. He promised delivery and honest results. That says it all about Premier Solar Solutions. Once we agreed to move forward, my installation was quick and smooth. The workers arrived when they were supposed to, and they took the time to explain everything I needed to know about the install from beginning to end. In the past my average balanced budget electric bill was $375.00 per month. Since I installed solar from Premiere Solar Solution my electric monthly is less than $26.00 per month. And that is with many rainy days on Long Island. If you are looking into solar, do yourself a favor and speak to Chris Hoffman at Premier Solar Solutions.
