We had Evo Energy install an EV charger in our garage. The process was smooth. We had to reschedule once, as the electrician had an emergency the morning of the first appointment. As we were not in a hurry, this was not an inconvenience for us. The electrician who did perform the work was very professional and informative. The city inspection (SF) took a while to schedule as there seemed to be a backlog of work. Once the inspection occurred, everything passed, and was good to go. Thanks! read more

Gne out of business. Did not submit the pge paperwork. Installation was very nicely done. No response from Ron. Now stuck with paying extra $$ for repairs and pge submission. read more

Very mixed experience here. Working with EVO/Ron was very straightforward; he was completely clear about the alternatives for a solar panels and batteries for our home; performed the installation work all in one weekend; arranged for and secured PG&E to come out and do the meter socket adapter; and the system he installed passed inspection with flying colors. At the end of December 2025 we were told all was approved and the system was turned on; works great. We paid the balance of our account. BUT... the kicker is that our solar generation is not showing up on our PG&E bill; PG&E now tells us they never received an application for permission to operate. I can't believe this wasn't done but EVO is neither returning phone calls nor emails. I am wondering if EVO is still in business, ghosting us, or if there is a reasonable explanation? Until I hear otherwise .. one star ... despite my prior impression of them as a great company but doing this as a DIY project is pretty daunting. read more

They did a great job installing solar panels and an electric charger for my car. I would highly recommend Ron and his crew. read more

Updated: Ronald got back to me. They explained what the delay was and promptly got me schedule and the install started. Will finish this once they complete. It still took 3 weeks essentially to say what the delay was though. Evo energy is subcontracted by QMerit which was part of the problem which Chevy uses for their offer. read more

We had an excellent experience with Evo Energy. Their bid was significantly less than the other bids we received for solar panel installation and moving our main panel. We had a great experience with them. Also, I cannot say enough good things about how Esgar performed as a project manager. He was responsive and efficient, very timely and courteous. In short we're extremely pleased with our experience with Evo. read more

Ronald installed the charger for the Cadillac Lyric. He was very professional, precise, and knowledgeable. We would definitely use him again and would recommend his services. read more

We found them easy to work with and the EV charger they installed is working perfectly. They came by the house to prepare their estimate and did the work for the price they provided (which was lower than the other 2 we received). The installation went smoothly and they came back for the inspection. I can highly recommend them based on the work they did at our house. read more

The System Innovation team did a fantastic job with installing my Tesla wall charger. Everything was seamless from initial quoting through the install. Their team also handled setting up time with the city to ensure proper permitting was in place. They were super responsive and knowledgable with any questions and last but not least, their pricing was very reasonable compared to some other quotes I had received. Go with System Innovation! read more

Efficient, good installation. Nothing to complain, the installer was on time and complete the work in a timely manner.

Can't say how Ron is as an electrician but as a communicator he gets a 0. Won't reply to email or phone.

Never returned phone call or set an appointment. Attempted to call and left a voicemail but never heard back from them

We highly recommend this company. We had them install an EV charger in our garage. They were professional, efficient and very easy to work with. They followed through by coming back for the inspection. read more

The best thing about Evo energy is the installer's expertise professionalism patience and knowledge. The level 2 charger that they installed at my home was done correctly the 1st time and was very attractive in the way that it was installed and it was also extremely quick. My complaint with the company which is relatively minor is that they did not follow through on getting the permit signed by the city of Oakland. I had to schedule the inspection myself with the city of Oakland not because they asked me to but because I wanted it done soon. And then to the company's credit they managed to get somebody to my house with very little notice so that the electrician could be present when the city of Oakland inspector came and signed the permit. I forgot to mention that the installer went above and beyond the call of duty in helping me connect my car to the level 2 charger. It turns out that the Chevy bolt I bought did not come with a level 2 charger and the installer helped me try to me try to find the correct adapter even to the point of looking on Amazon with me for the correct product. It ended up that I had to buy fairly expensive level 2 charger but the installer helped me find a safe one. I highly recommend this company. read more

I purchased an electric car & had Evo install my wall connector. They were excellent. I priced shopped & out of 8 electricians in the area, they were the most affordable, easy to work with & super professional. I can't say enough about Marcos, Eric, Ronald & Brian. Support local businesses - these guys are pros & cost effective. Thank you! read more

Ronald came to my house helped me trouble shoot a problem I was having installing a charging station. He then gave me several options on how I can get better performance with future upgrades. My house is on the older side so he gave me several options. This is the kind of service I love. He was trying to help me not sell me on other stuff. I will call him again and you should not hesitate to do so either read more

It was a pleasure to work with Ronaldo. He was knowledgeable, courteous, detailed, and experienced. I had him installed Tesla EV charger in my garage. He worked with PGE, City, and neighbors to get all permissions sort out. He made sure that we looked at a couple options based on the load, usages, and layouts before carrying out the installation. He also followed through until the final inspection from the City. In summary, he installed the charger as if he owned the property, which is a good thing. I would definitely contact him again in the future. read more

Ron and his father installed a charging station in my garage a couple of weeks ago. The installation required a lot of bending of pipe conduit as well as quite a bit of conduit run to both sides of my garage. The job was thorough and professional and then inspector only needed about one minute to determine that the work was first-rate and met all Oakland building and electrical codes. I recommend System Innovation for any Tesla or other EV charging needs. read more

This is a super late posting, but I had to share with the Yelp community... if you need an honest, detailed, and hardworking electrician you can trust, Ron is the guy. It was truly a pleasure working with Ron. He installed new circuits for recessed lighting and light switches with integrated dimmers in our home, and for an outlet so we can mount our TV. Ron even did the patch and paint work, which was done beautifully and with professional care. Ron is detailed and thoughtful, and takes care to keep your home clean, while staying as late as necessary to get the job done. He even mounted our TV for us! He will forever be our go-to electrician until the end of days. I would highly recommend Ron and System Innovation to all! read more

Ron recently completed installation of a 240v circuit for my new Chevy Volt's Clipper Creek EV charging station. I contacted five highly-rated Yelp installers: one never responded; one gave me a high price & a two-month wait; one wouldn't go thru the permit process PLUS wanted a high price; of the last two, Ron was the clear stand-out, altho not the least expensive. It was an easy decision and an excellent one. He was thorough, easy to work with, showed up when he said he would--for estimate and the installation; endured the hassle of dealing w/the City of Richmond's permitting process; and did an efficient and practical installation in my garage. The City signed off and all's good to go. I've had some serious disappointments w/electricians and this experience was 180º different. Five stars, no question! read more

We had Ronald come by to install a charger for our new Tesla. He was incredible - fantastic customer service and dedication to doing the job well, and the price was in line with others. Don't be deterred by the few yelp reviews, he's just getting started and is eager to impress. I can't recommend him enough. read more

Ronald installed an outlet for a Tesla charger in my multi-family building in San Francisco. I met with three other firms from Tesla's list. I was most interested in working with him as the owner of the business, rather than the bigger firms who sent estimators, not the people who would actually do the work. He provided excellent service, was punctual and reliable, executed the work neatly and as promised, and was competitive in his price. I strongly recommend him without hesitation. read more

I just bought a Tesla and needed an installation for an EV charger. Ronald was recommended on a list by Tesla of local installers. Ronald was professional, on time, quick, and price was very reasonable. He made this a fast, painless experience. Everything is checked by an inspector who makes sure that everything was done properly, safely and up to code. You will not be disappointed, especially by his very reasonable price tag. read more

When I decided to install a NEMA 14-50 outlet in our condo. garage to serve as an EV recharging station, I interviewed five different electrical firms. The outlet had to be tapped into the PG&E meter for my unit (which involved penetrating a wall), and the work had to be done in a clean, attractive manner acceptable to other owners of our nicely finished shared garage space. Ronald Toledo of System Innovation was by far the best of the lot. It was clear at his initial visit to assess the scope of the work that he knew what he was doing. He was always prompt, responsive to calls and email, and professional. We communicated well during the work, which was executed beautifully, and at a fair price. He handled permissions and the inspection with the City of Berkeley, which went very smoothly (I was present at the inspection). I could not be more pleased with the experience, and will stay in touch with Ronald for our future condo. electrical projects. I am very comfortable recommending his services (and have already mentioned him to a number of friends needing electrical work). read more
