Happy customer

Energysage lead me to choosing Forecast Energy to install a solar system. I had many unknowns about how to get this done and how to coordinate adding a solar system with replacing our 50yo main panel and generator transfer switch, and converting from overhead to underground utilities. Forecast was able to do all these upgrades at the same time as installing the solar system. Their electricians were great to work with, and the office staff answered all my questions in a timely manner. They made everything work including adding a 50A 240V level 2 EV charger outlet. Forecast took care of applying for all the permits, getting the utility to temporarily disconnect service for a day while they did the underground utility conversion (other than that there were no power interruptions), electrical inspection (it passed the first time with no issues), and getting our utility to approve the net metering agreement. Forecast gave us three levels of proposals to choose from. They didn't try to upsell us any thing we didn't want. They did the whole project at the agreed cost, and they cleaned up the site at the end of each day. The included Enphase app lets you see in near real time (15 minutes) how many kW you are producing, consuming, importing or exporting as well as the elapsed total kWh for the day of each individual panel, and the app stores your historical data in 15 minute intervals 24/7. Forecast Energy is the real deal. We love our new solar system and all the upgrades they did for us. Our only negative comment is that it took a long time to get all this done, but they did a lot more for us than just installing solar. The wait was well worth it. We feel saver with our new main panel, the house looks better with the underground service, the critical loads panel is way easier to use than our old generator transfer switch, and it is so nice to use the sun as our power source. I recommend using Forecast Energy for adding a solar systems and any electrical upgrades.

Solar Installation in Kirkland

Had them look at setting up a 17.6KW Solar System. They were able to provide an excellent price for the system and didnt push for anything unnecessary. They've been excellent with the design and system evaluation and I'm looking forward to the system coming up.

Great Installer

This team was great to work with. Very upfront, great communication, always felt like I was being treated with respect. I compared and reached out to many installers, and they provided a competitive price and the best buying experience. They did a great job on my install. Highly recommended.

Very fast responses and quick redesign to match what i wanted exactly

Forecast Energy worked very quickly to provide me a quote and then help educate me on both the physical system and the best use of money for my particular situation. I needed a couple of redesigns and even spoke with their engineers. Priyanka in particular was extremely responsive both via phone and email. Their prices were the best and the equipment was the best rated tier 1 panels and inverters. I am very happy with my choice of Forecast energy.

Solar Panel Install

The team at Forecast Energy got the job done inspite of being overwhelmed with orders as a result of the termination of the energy credit happening immediately following our agreement to install the solar panel and battery system. Tai, Mustafa and Morgan were responsive to our questions and concerns. They had major permit issues to overcome but through persistence, skill and experience all challenges with engineering and inspectors were addressed and resolved. We are looking forward to the benefits of solar power reducing our electric bill and having emergency power during outages.
