Independent Energy Solutions is a great solar company to work with. Very profession. Installation went well, and we have been very happy with the last two electric bills. Thank you guys very much.
If you are considering getting on board with solar, definitely give Independent Energy Solutions a call.

I have installed my solar system via IES. So far, I am very happy with the installation and support the IES team has given me. The installation looks very professionally done and I highly recommend IES to other potential solar customers! Installation went pretty smoothly and I am getting pretty great responses from Will along the way during the solar installation and approval process. Great job, IES!

We were looking into several companies to get solar through. We chose IES as one of the companies to get a quote from, as we had hoped the great Unilocal ratings said something good about the company. We spent several weeks trying to just get a quote. We’d call, give them all of our info, and be told they’d pass it along and get right back to us. They never did. We followed up 4 times over the course of a few weeks, and nothing. We just wanted a quote. It didn’t even have to be an in-​person quote if they couldn’t squeeze us in. We even stressed towards the end that we were planning on making a decision with who to hire, and would like to include them in the possibilities. Still, nothing. I didn’t give 1 star, as I don’t know what it’s like to work with them once you’ve committed your money, but we were seriously disappointed with how they handled things while we were trying to give them our money.

IES was great to work with. I had an inverter failure on an existing solar system. Other companies tried to sell me a whole new system. IES found a reasonable solution in replacing the inverter. Joseph was great to work with. Will did an excellent job on the installation. He was very knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend IES for solar repairs.

We are an HOA and solar companies refused to deal with us. IES is different from all others we contacted. Chris did a great job from finding a lender to finance our solar project at 2.99% interest over 12 years. He and Joseph obtained all necessary permits, coordinated all phases of the work from preparing the roof through turning on the system. Most importantly, the performance of the system is better than we expected. Our overall experience with IES warrants the highest rating we can give them. We can highly recommend IES for anyone in search of a solar contractor.

After months of researching and meeting with solar companies, we decided to go with IES to install solar at our home. We are so happy with our choice! This company is amazing. From start to finish you get nothing but the best costumer service. Every single employee we had contact with was polite, professional and conscientious of our time. The installation team is immaculate– didn’t leave a single trace behind. They really care about their customers and have great communication throughout the entire process. Would recommend to anyone.

I am an electrical engineer, so I completed a thorough evaluation of the panels being offered by several companies … the panels provided by IES were optimum for my situation. The team was very knowledgeable & professional; pricing was competitive, and communication throughout the project was excellent. I definitely recommend IES.

IES has been a huge resource for all my solar related questions. They have been more than happy to provide PV information without expecting anything in return. They have been great to work with.

The first place I rented when I moved to CA had solar energy and I couldn’t believe how inexpensive the electricity bill was.
There were quite a few months that we were actually given a credit from not using enough electricity. When I moved and had to pay a full electric bill, it was a shock. I decided pretty quickly that solar was the way to go. Chris is very dependable, honest, and helpful. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family.

I’ve worked with Chris on several different occasions. He is always informative and up front with information. Every time I reach out to him I get a response within minutes. Not only does he represent a great product, but he is the most honest sales person I have ever worked with. He will get it done for you.

Chris at IES helped me explore several solar options for my home. He gave me the facts, but without the usual sales pressure.
The process was an educational one, not an uncomfortable sales situation which was a nice surprise. I felt like they had my best interests in mind during the entire process. Their communication and customer service was refreshing in such a saturated industry.
Thank you

I’ve been very happy with my decision to go solar! When SDG&E hiked the rates in October 2013 I was facing a more than $ 320/​month electric bill.
I solicited 3 solar system quotes, and IES was in the middle price wise, but offered the most optimal system design, roof utilization, appearance and a slightly larger system for the investment. They were able to communicate the plans and provide me with peace of mind. Now thanks to going with the professional team at IES I am generating enough energy to receive a $ 56/​month SDG&E credit.
I applied my $ 9000 tax credit towards the Credit Union financing that they helped me secure, and 6 months after the installation I’m already paying less, and I’m protected against any future price increases.
I can’t say enough about how great Lindsey, Kevin and the whole IES team performed. My neighbors have all commented how «green» my house looks with the subtle solar panels peaking up from the roof, and I’m happy to recommend Independent Energy Solutions!
