Standard Energy Solutions - Profile & Reviews

I was very happy with SES and I would hire them again. The people I dealt with were always very helpful and accommodating.

I got estimates for my PV system from several companies. One of which was the company I had used 8 years ago to install my solar hot-water system. That hot-water system provided some challenges in terms of the layout for the new PV system on my roof. Comparing all proposals I decided to go with Standard Solar because I felt they did not promise anything they couldn't deliver. Overall the installation itself went without any problems and was very fast. They finished installing the panels within one day if I remember correctly. There were challenges along the way only due to scheduling issues. I had to have my roof replaced prior to installing the PV system. The new roof required my existing solar hot-water system to be taken down first - this was done by a sub-contractor of Standard Solar - and put back up after the roof replacement, and due to the bad weather during that time the schedule was pushed back several times. This was unfortunate but nobodies fault.

Once the PV system was installed BGE was dragging their feet for a while to install the net meter and BGE also made a mistake with the billing not recognizing the net-metering but all of that was resolved after a few phone calls. Standard Solar was extremely helpful and pro-active in addressing the issues as best as they could.

In the end, my family had a 5.4kWh system (20 panels) that has been working great for the past 22 months.

prompt, efficient and very responsive to questions and suggestions. Went out of their way to meet my needs. returned immediately even though it was after hours to fix a small problem.

Standard Energy Solution's crew explained many things along the way, so nothing unexpected popped up.
You do have to research solar technology a bit to know what's out there, as the initial proposal was revised when I found out other options that was available.

Standard Solar (now Standard Energy Solutions) installed solar panels on my home in 2010. The company took care of everything- county/city permits, home owners association application, coordination with the power company, reimbursement from state and federal credits and more. My monthly electric bill has been miniscule since 2010. The customer service has always been so responsive, professional and complete. Standard Energy Solutions is the Best!
