Solar Energy World

I waited to write this review until I received my state and federal rebates. I did this because I was certain that something was going to happen and the rebates would fall through… but they didn’t. What’s even more surprising is that my rep was exact in giving me the rebates amounts I would receive, the timeline and the process. Solar energy world did all the paperwork and all I had to do was review and sign. They had someone who specifically handled the sales, inspection, install, and rebate paperwork and explained everything as we went along. I am hopeful that the rest (the next 30 years) of our relationship is as positive as the first. I never write reviews but I feel that this company deserves it.

This was one of 6 bids I reviewed in preparing to install our system. Although we ended up awarding our project to another company, I had a very positive experience in my dealings with Joe from Solar Energy World. I got a detailed bid, they answered my questions very quickly and really helped me in gathering all information I needed.

I highly recommend Solar Energy World as the best and most reliable solar installer in MD and beyond. From day 1 till the completion of my project, I couldn't be happier with the choice I made. My analyst Eric Winkler was very professional and responsive. He stayed on top of each and every matter throughout the whole process. The installation crew was just amazing. They went above and beyond in making sure the system was put in place as intended and by following my wish list, and the site was left very clean after completion. The Engineering and scheduling teams made all arrangements with the authorities, and provided all necessary paperwork, from the loan application, to the county permits, to Maryland Energy Administration, SREC broker and the electric company. My new Solar station has been in service for almost two months now, and everything looks great so far! Thank you Eric and the SEW Team!

We've had solar panels installed for approximately 3 months, and I can say I couldn't be happier for every aspect of Solar Energy World. They were strait forward with their quoting. Daren Weatherby was easy to deal with, honest, and very professional. The installers showed up on time, were respectful, thorough, and friendly. The install was quick and seamless, looks good, and is performing as advertised. I am saving more than $200 per month on my electric bill. The solar panels are paying for themselves. Thank you Solar Energy World!

Solar Energy World installed a 17-panel array on our roof in June 2022. Since our house is a contributing resource in a local historic district, we needed to get approval from the historic district commission. It was a little tricky since the optimal place for the panels was on the front of our house and, in the past, the commission seldom approved solar panels that could be seen from the street. Solar Energy World prepared a very complete application and submitted it to the commission which approved the installation. Shortly after receiving this approval, our local utility surprised us by saying we would have to pay a $10,000 interconnect fee--a new fee that had not been required in the past. Solar Energy World met with the utility and successfully got this interconnect fee waived. The installation was perfect; the installation crew came on time and thoroughly cleaned up the site at the end of the day. They were a pleasure to work with and were happy to answer all of my questions.

A gentleman called me and resolved an issue that I had with a mix up of communication about the deposit process. I was unable to have the panels installed because my roof didn’t pass the assessment but they were professional in clearing up the issue that I had.
