Ben and his company are wonderful to work with!! They were able to complete our already existing solar system by adding 2 tesla batteries... super nice guys to work with who did exactly as advertised by saving us a considerable cost with incentives and providing us with a clean finished product.w Absolutely will recommend in the future! read more

So happy with our recent experience getting a new system designed/installed with Incentive Solar! We got our application done a couple years ago and then put things on hold until we were ready. As soon as we re-inquired about moving forward Ben was quick to get our project back on their radar & Greg ensured their team executed a fast install that easily passes inspection. This has been such a smooth process from start to finish, and I especially appreciated their entire team's responsiveness, efficient work, and professionalism. 5 out of 5 stars, would absolutely recommend read more

Incentive Solar did my installation 2+ years ago and did a great job. When I decided to increase the size of my system, they guided me through the process to retain my net metering 2.0 status. Ben, Greg and the team did a great job with the expansion. Thanks much! read more

Ben and Greg are so knowledgeable. They made sure that we were getting the best battery and solar system to meet our needs then, when our needs changed, they helped us to augment our solar system to meet our new needs. As a retired military family we appreciate their commitment to veterans. I would definitely recommend working with this team on any solar or battery project. read more

Ben's team did a fantastic job with my solar upgrade project. They added 2 extra panels quickly and then stayed until the panels were registered and activated, which nearly took more time than the installation. Excellent work and great customer service!! read more

Little bit late of my review... But I had a great experience in 2022 contracting for a solar system installation with Incentive Solar, including a main service panel replacement. They installed Panasonic EverVolt Panels (great warranty on them!) with EnPhase microinverters, on our Boral Steel stone coated metal shingle roof with battens. My main concern was it's a not so common style of roof where the shingles can get bent from walking on them with too much weight (which is why I know so much about it), and I was worried about it getting damaged or just having a bad install. But Incentive Solar went above and beyond - the roof looks totally the same - no bends - comparing the before and after photos, and they did a perfect high quality install paying attention to all the details like caulking. I actually had a separate roof inspection this year for a separate reason, and that is what the roof inspector told me, so it's legit! Otherwise they were very considerate in going back and forth with the design of the system and the details on the contract, including things like evaluating if we could install an unusual type of main service panel (that we didn't end up going with, I think correctly), and dealing with some last minute changes like moving the EnPhase communication box inside our garage rather than outside. They also managed the city permitting and inspections, which was very helpful. I also have to say, they were competitively priced. So I really think we got a fantastic value here. It was also so nice to work with a small business & small install team. The workmen who did my install were led by the owner Ben's brother, and were incredibly hard workers. They also had this nifty gadget that was like a vertical conveyer belt for carrying solar panels up to the roof lickity split. I had never seen this before, and it was the perfect tool for the job! In conclusion, I had a great experience, and I hope you would too. read more

Very satisfied with Incentive Solar's service and work. The installation process was extremely smooth. Every worker was friendly and respectful of my property. read more

Just a not great company overall. Horrible customer service. Janky product. Not great.

We recently used Incentive Solar to do our solar install and were absolutely thrilled with the job they did. Greg did the whole install himself and was meticulous at every step of the way. I would imagine the fact that their team runs lean is how they are able to offer such a competitive price. I will start by saying that I was originally against the idea of solar after a few consults with other companies but after talking to Greg and Ben, they explained to me both the benefits of having the solar itself and the great tax credits that California offers. After giving them the go ahead, they went ahead and got the panels ordered (which are beautiful black/black). When they arrived Greg was prompt to start installation and considerate that we had started paying on our loan and wanted to get us generating as fast as possible. Within a few days they were up and looking sleek and beautiful. The installation included monitoring software so we can see how much each panel is generating, or all, and per day, month etc. The only thing we had to wait on was for SDGE to give us the green light, even that only took a day or so. At this point we were so impressed with Greg and his knowledge and expertise. After we were rolling Greg and Caroline came up and gave us a wonderful gift basket for choosing them to do our solar. I think its safe to say that we would DEFINITELY recommend incentive solar to our friends and others read more

Incentive Solar - A job well done by Incentive Solar - Solar Installation Near Me

Just want to give a solid shout to Gregory Bodde and the Incentive Solar team. I was recommended to Greg from several colleagues and I can see why he came so highly recommended. Greg has personally come out to my house multiple times, and even spent hours WORKING on our roof (and even replacing some damaged tiles I had!) to try to see if he could make solar work without replacing the roof. And then, without me even asking, he told me he had been doing some research for our scenario, and then sent over an even BETTER proposal-- THOUSANDS lower than his original-- which was already one of the LOWEST I'd received from other companies! Greg is a solid guy, a hard worker and someone who looks you in the eye and does what he said he would do. TIP: This is a great time to reach out and contact Greg to explore your solar options before the federal 30% credit goes away at the end of 2019!! Thank you Greg and Incentive Solar! read more

This is a great company. We needed a new roof and they had a company they work with. The whole job was done seamlessly, on time, and good quality. They didnt try to over sell and explained everything thoroughly. Couldnt ask for a better experience. read more

I am extremely pleased with Incentive solar from first talking to them to the complete installation of the job. I have a metal roof and not many solar companies will put panels on a metal roof. They did a lot of research as to the proper materials to use to mount the panels. Everyone was extremely polite and respectful of my property. The installation went very smoothly. I am excited to see how much money I am saving due to the efficient solar panels. read more

Great solar instal that needed some roof work and integrating with my batteries. Incentive navigated this very complex install without issues. Highly recommend. read more

Greg and the team at Incentive Solar are great. We are super happy and satisfied with the system they provided The pricing was good but the savings are GREAT read more

I am completely satisfied with Incentive Solar's work: system design, installation and workmanship, and customer support. I thoroughly reviewed seven companies that service my area, spoke to sales managers several times at length, and received bids and a few contracts. I selected Incentive Solar for the following reasons: (1) My system cost just under $24,000. The other companies wanted $29,000 to $43,000 for comparable systems. (2) They modified the contract to meet my requirements. A contract from a competitor stated that work could within 9 months. When I asked for this to be changed I was told "the contract is the contract!" (3) While other companies first communicated to me via zoom, the Incentive Solar Regional Sales Manager came to my house and measured by roof! Incentive Solar's team arrived on the dates promised and work was completed without delay. The team took care with my property and left no mess. The system has operated without any issues since it was installed. I highly recommend Incentive Solar. read more

Incentive Solar did a great job on our Solar Panel install.

We would highly recommend Incentive Solar for your Solar needs. Thank you Ben, Cole, Greg & Marco for everything. read more

The team at Incentive Solar worked without complaint on the roof of my house through two weeks of the hottest weather San Diego could throw at them.  They accommodated my special requests without complaint.  They provided me honest opinions on my design requirements.  They started and completed the job on schedule.  I'm VERY happy with their work and the performance of my solar system.  I happily recommend Incentive Solar and Incentive Electric to complete any job. Eric S. read more

Incentive Solar did a fantastic job getting my panels up. Cole explained to me in detail how Solar works and went through the details on how many panels I would need and the different finance options. He was professional and patient with me as I had many questions to ask. Greg and his crew went above and beyond of my expectations. Although there were some setback (which none was their fault), they were able to get me up and running. While going through permits the city found I had an unpermited patio and wouldnt allow the solars to be put up until that got resolved. Greg and his crew went above and beyond. In order for my permit to go through they found an engineer for me to draw up a built as plan design for my patio which was not easy as no one would take the job. Once they got that they were calling the city everyday and driving out an hour to 2 hours everday tonget to the city of Wildomar to get the permits squared away as the city was also un responsive at times. Everything that you think would go wrong actually went wrong lol and like I said none was Incentive Solars fault. But they tackled this job like Pros. As soon as they got the go ahead from the city they got my panels installed in a day. The whole crew at Incentive Solar is amazing and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get Solar read more

Exceptional service and professional installation. From the start of the process through installation and now follow on service incentive solar have been true professionals. Highly recommended read more

These guys were great to work with; they answered all my questions and went through a lot of effort to get me the detailed answers I needed.

I had Incentive Solar install my solar panels / system and they did a great job! After researching a half dozen local solar companies, I found that Ben offered the most thorough explanation of the different types of solar panels and all about the installation process. Ben and his team did great work setting up my system and they were all extremely knowledgeable. It's a local, family owned business and they provide personalized service. If you are considering "going solar", I highly recommend that you talk with Ben and go with Incentive Solar. read more

Can't say enough about these guys. I shopped around a bunch and met with different companies. I like a good price but I like customer service and quality more. Lucky for me I got both. The price was the best by far and the quality of work was top notch. Greg explained everything to me regarding the benefits of solar, etc. He texted me daily progress reports as well. My roof is steep but they took all safety precautions, took their time and did a great job. They literally took care of everything from start to finish, HOA approval, neighbor signatures, city inspections, etc. Everything. That is A+ service. Lance, Greg and Marco are a great team and they made this whole process easy as can be. Highly recommend these guys. You can't go wrong. read more

Incentive Solar was awesome with the whole process of going solar. They helped get the financing. Greg is extremely patient and helpful in all ways, even if you need a therepist. I would highly recommend them to family and friends. read more

Incentive Solar was amazing from start to finish. We received quotes from at least 5 different companies before we decided to give our business to Incentive Solar. They came sat down with my wife and I and educated us on everything about Solar. They took their time and never pressured us. They always were there to honestly answer our questions. Not only is their customer service amazing but the price point was spot on. They designed several different systems for us based on what we wanted and needed. They set out several different scenarios for us based on what we wanted. When it came to the install they were fast and professional. Greg installed our system and he was very knowledgeable with the installation and with Solar in a whole. I would highly recommend this company! read more

Incentive Solar - Solar Installation Near Me

See all

Full disclosure - I am a cost conscious engineer that analyzed the heck out of solar before making the decision 1 year ago. Fast forward, I am very happy with my investment decision. For some details, I chose Panasonic panels, they may cost a little more but I am in the manufacturing business and have firsthand experience and utmost respect for Japanese quality systems. Second, I chose the right solar company to work with - Incentive Solar. I tend to vector towards local family owned service businesses as I have lived in the same San Diego home for 28 years. They did an excellent job of explaining solar benefits, provided a well-thought-out design for my roof/location and finished the installation on time. Bottom-line, my typical energy bill before solar averaged $300-400/month and last year it averaged $10/month. At this rate, my investment should pay off in less than 5 years! As a side note, out of all the home improvements that I have made over the years, having solar had the most positive impact on a recent refinance home appraisal. Go solar, good for the environment, great for your pocketbook! read more

Our new solar system just went live and we are happy! Greg Bodle of Incentive Solar made the whole process easy and understandable. When it was discovered that a large part of our roof wouldn't handle the panels he introduced us to Dario, a terrific rooofer. The finished product is beautiful to look at and just in time for the summer weather. read more

We just got our system installed! These guys spend a lot of attention on detail. Greg is super nice and very informative. I would always recommend this company for solar. I've sat down with 6 other companies and I am so pleased I chose them. read more

These guys are great. They knew very well every detail of the solar installation process. They also knew much about the panel and inverter technology, and even demonstrated the mounting process. After, meeting with four other solar companies, Incentive Solar were the only ones that were able to answer my questions. They made me safe and secure with their operation and helped us save a lot of money. From the first meet to the very finish my consultant was their to keep me informed. Also, the installation was done in less than week. All around great experience, I would recommend to everyone. read more

Ben and his team are the greatest!! They made sure I understood all the ins and outs of solar and were no pressure!!! I'd give ten stars if I could. I highly recommend them...you can't go wrong with Incentive Solar. read more

I've Been looking at solar now for 5 years. It seemed like every company I met with just left me with more questions, until I met Greg with Incentive Solar. He demonstrated how the solar was installed on my roof and helped me feel secure letting a bunch of guys work on my tile roof. These guys offered me extended warranties, the best mounting equipment ( they worked with my former roofing company so my roof warranty would not get voided) , a great price and unsecured financing (no credit) that both beat the other competitors monthly payment and a lower term. In my experience anyone looking for solar I would fully recommend talking to Greg and his team before making any decision. James, Chula Vista read more

With the recommendation from my neighbor, I used Incentive Solar to install my solar panels on my house before the end of last year. Lance discussed with me with a good introduction on benefits of solar and payment options. Once I decided to use Incentive Solar, Gregory talked with me about the work that needs to be done for every phase and answered my questions with details. Their installation passed the inspection and went live with SDGE smoothly. Gregory demonstrated and explained to me how to monitor it online. He also helped me in filling out the form for tax credit. I'm very happy with Incentive Solar and recommended it to my friends for their solar panel installations. read more

Very happy with our decision to go solar with Incentive Solar! Greg and the team were great to work with, they patiently answered all our questions and facilitated the process by all means and always with a smile on their faces! And during the installation as well as afterwards they treated us not like their customers but made us feel like we're family! read more

Highly recommended. I spoke with a few of their employees, all very helpful. Shopped around for a bit because everyone says they are the cheapest and they have the best rates. Incentive Solar definitely did have the best options and rates. I worked with a guy named Ben, great guy, extremely helpful, and he even gave me some workout advice. Two for one deal! read more
