When you choose May Electric Solar, your system is designed and installed
under the direct supervision of a Master Electrician. Owner/Operator

possible for homeowners:

"The IQ8 Microinverter has changed the way we think about installing home
solar energy systems. The technology gives us the ability to build a
solution that fits our customers' needs, with or without a battery, and
provides them with reliable, affordable, and safer power."

- William May, Owner and Operator, May Electric Solar

For more than 20 years, May Electric Solar has earned the trust of
homeowners across Central Florida by delivering solar with integrity,
expertise, and craftsmanship that holds up. Our goal is straightforward:
give customers the highest-quality equipment, professional installation,
and the service they deserve, so they lower their energy costs, add value
to their home, and shrink their environmental footprint.

We never use subcontractors or temporary labor. Every installation is
completed by our own experienced, highly trained crews, which is how we
hold the line on workmanship, safety, ethics, and quality. Our reputation
is built on doing the job right the first time and taking pride in every
project we finish.

Our recommendations come from real-world results, not manufacturer spec
sheets. At our headquarters we run six active solar test systems covering
26 different panel and inverter configurations from 11 manufacturers.
That lets us compare performance, reliability, and long-term value under
Florida's heat, humidity, and storm season before we ever put a product
on a customer's roof. It is also why Enphase selects May Electric Solar
for their beta testing programs.

Quality, education, and customer satisfaction have made us one of
Florida's most respected solar contractors. We stand behind every
recommendation, every installation, and every customer we serve.

Neil Summers: Neil has been with May Electric Solar since 2015. Before solar, he worked with designers and decorators in high-end window treatments for homes and businesses, so it's fair to say his passion is creating lifestyle changes that add value and a "good feel" experience. He's very responsive to his clients' questions and genuinely happy to serve in an industry that's changing the world. What Neil loves most about May Electric Solar is that everyone here is family. He's worked with the same guys and gals since he basically started, and that commitment carries all the way through to installation and service. More "SOLAR" power to the People! Tom Iaci: After moving from the Big Island of Hawaii to Tampa in 2018, Tom entered the solar business with May Electric Solar for two simple reasons: he wanted to help the environment while also helping homeowners save money on their power bills. His customers appreciate his honest, straightforward approach and the way he genuinely listens to each customer's needs and goals before designing a system that meets their expectations. To back that up, Tom builds every proposal in Aurora, one of the most accurate solar design tools in the industry, using its detailed shade reports, and accurate 3-D modelling to give customers estimates they can trust.

Solar Battery

I have dealt with May Electric over the past several years. They installed solar panels on two houses I own, and just they recently handled the addition on solar batteries on one of my homes. They were professional, timely, courteous, honest and pleasant to deal with. The owner is excellent to work with, his employees are all courteous, polite, and respectful. The company quickly and efficiently handled issues I had with a couple of bad panels on one of my homes and always kept me information on the status of the replacement panels. I only wish that all contractors were this professional and efficient.

23Kw System

Spent months talking with numerous solar companies about our needs and discovered they were providing very misleading information. Finally got the truthful and correct information from May Electric Solar. Our system is larger, 23Kw and 59 panels, and Billy May ensured it was designed to be perfect. We discussed several layouts and configurations and he accommodated every request made while still ensuring system reliability. The entire May Electric team are extremely professional and I would recommend them to anyone. Our system went into operation on 5 Dec 2023 and has already produced 1.9MWh of energy, with a net import of just 34KWh.

This was an unfortunate misunderstanding

I was able to talk with William May, the owner of may electric and we both have come to the realization that it has been a misunderstanding.

Highly Recommend

Communication was good, and everyone that I dealt with was professional , knowledgeable, and friendly. The installation team did a good job of explaining everything, and cleaned up. All in all, it’s been a very positive experience, And I feel like I can call with any questions, and would be treated with respect. I’m happy with my choice, and highly recommend May Electric Solar.

Love our new solar!

We bought solar panels from May Electric Solar in spring of 2022 and they were installed in early summer. We shopped around quite a bit before deciding, and we were confident from the beginning that we had chosen the right company. We were not disappointed; May Electric did excellent work at a fair price. We found all team members, from our sales person, to the installers, to the office staff, to the owner of the company to be easy going, honest, and hard working. With all of that said, I waited to write the review so we could be sure we were happy with the actual performance of the solar panels. We have had them for several months now, and we couldn't possibly be more pleased! The entire system works perfectly, and so far the energy generation exceeds our expectations. I highly recommend going solar, and when you do, I recommend you put May Electric at the top of your list for a quote.

Tremendous

Right from the beginning we have been delighted with May Electric Solar's customer focus and support. Our salesperson, Neil summers, never made us feel pressured, instead, we felt that he supported our decision making by providing sound honest information. When we called or wrote the office during our project, Roger Davis was always courteous, responsive, and understanding. Even the installation crew was courteous, respectful, and friendly. we found it reassuring that all of them had been with the company for at least several years. William May has established a solid customer focused organization that he should take pride in. We highly recommend this company over the fly by night outfits that exist in this arena.
