Yes Solar Solutions

We had been interested in a solar conversion for many years, but dreaded the process of evaluating contractors and proposals on a project of such scope and expense. So we leapt at the opportunity to participate in Solarize the Triangle, which had already done that due diligence. Our experience with Yes Solar could not have been better. They flew a drone over our house to confirm that the roof was suitably intact, executed the planning and installation with great professionalism (including promptly remedying a small bit of damage to our pergola), and provided prompt support when I had a question about our electric bill later on (I didn’t realize that I needed to cancel our budget plan). Could not have been easier or more professional. Glad we did it!

We've had the solar panels for a little over half a year and typically produce more than we consume. While it's gratifying to see excess energy exported, we're still more grid dependent than I'd like as we didn't invest in a battery to store that excess produced energy for use when the sun isn't shining. I'll assess the cost to benefit ratio to see if a battery may be a future investment. Regarding Yes Solar Solutions, they've been great to work with from the beginning of our solar experience: responsive and effective. Definitely recommend!

We're so glad we picked Yes Solar Solutions! We now have 32 panels and two Tesla powerwalls! Even when we had other good offers, their team really showed they cared about what we needed. The energy specialist who helped us plan everything became like a close friend to us. Big thanks to the designer and project manager! They knew their stuff but were also super friendly and patient, ensuring everything was right. On the day we switched everything on, the team worked great, fixing a minor issue quickly and keeping in touch with everyone involved. And we can never forget our installers - they were fun and did a fantastic job. We even shared a few laughs and pizzas! Being a family business, they treat their work and clients like family. Hands down, they're led by the best owner and stand as the most outstanding solar solutions company throughout the Triangle region!

Yes Solar modelled, designed, and installed a 7.6 kW array with a Tesla Powerwall 2 battery backup. System was estimated to produce 9,272 kWh in the first year and is on pace to produce above that with 8,000 kWh in the first 9 months. Installation occurred as planned/scheduled with the exception of a delay by the power company to reconnect within their time-frame which they warned me it could happen. I had electrical meter upgrade at the same time to accommodate whole house battery back up which they also selected and installed. Very pleased.

We have six months of experience now and our panels are producing energy as designed, equal to or greater than our electric load. We have cut our environmental carbon contribution to zero. And in our first six months, we have not paid Duke Energy for a single kilowatt-hour. The Duke rebate program (now expired) and the forthcoming Investment Tax Credit are paying over half the expenses so going solar was very affordable too. We had a roof leak issue immediately after install and then after a couple of months, a wiring connection issue but YES promptly investigated and fixed both issues on the first working day after they were notified. We are very happy with YES Solar and happy with the environmental and financial benefits of going solar.

Yes Solar Solutions installed my 30 rooftop panels and two Tesla batteries this past Winter. I spent a lot of time with the installation team throughout the install. Very professional, worked as a team, and paid a lot of attention to details. Respectful of our property. The system has been working flawlessly and our energy bills were actually a monthly credit in the Spring, and a fraction of the cost of previous years during this long hot Summer when energy demands are high. I should average out close to a roughly net zero annual usage. The Tesla switch and app are amazing in how it switches without us noticing from panels to batteries to grid as needed, and after the batteries are charged, sends extra power back to the grid for credit. Our neighborhood has had a few power outages in the past eight months, and we didn’t even notice. If you have an open sky view, I would highly recommend going solar, and definitely using Yes Solar Solutions to install. Very satisfied.
