Finally, a big shout out to CHRIS BAKER my go to person at NC solar but frankly the whole team hVE been wonderful.Posted on Google Rich BergerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Honest fast professionalPosted on Google Donald FortinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our experience with NC Solar Now has been nothing short of spectacular. Our introduction was via Katie Clifford to whom we explained our goals. She tailored a system of solar panels and Tesla batteries to meet our goals at a very reasonable price. We qualified for both Duke Energy's PowerPair program as well as a Tesla rebate for the batteries making the proposal even more palatable. Once we agreed on a design proposal, Chris Baker took the project over through completion. NC Solar Now kept us informed every step of the way from filing applications (including our HOA required documents) for interconnection with Duke Energy, permits and everything else. When installation day(s) arrived, two (2) teams arrived - the first to deal with the electrical connections and the second to do roof prep and solar panel racking and panel installation. Due to the large number of panels we had installed (55), it took 3 total days for everything to be installed and connected. Since then we have been generating electricity in sufficient quantities to effectively be off the grid. Our permission to operate (PTO) finally came from Duke Energy and we have been pouring the excess (after home use [including EV charging], recharging batteries, etc) back to the grid. We are waiting for our first full month of operations to be completed so we can track our savings. Will update when data available. We can't thank NC Solar Now and their expert team enough for their preparation and work on our project. We would and have been recommending them to anyone who asks about our panels and batteries.Posted on Google David CrawfordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is a great company to work with. From information about the system to installation everyone was courteous, professional and knowledgeable.Posted on Google Charlie GunnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After reviewing multiple proposals, we selected NCSolar to install solar panels on our home. All interactions with representatives were professional, cordial, and effective from design and proposal through installation and start up. We ended up with a 37 panel, 16.28 kW DC system currently without batteries (we already had a gas generator, but batteries could be added later) and it has operated without any issues for the first three months with no indication of trouble. From interactions throughout the project, I believe they will address any issues in the same manner as they completed the project. The time for installation was about four and a half months from signing the agreement to powering up the system. They completely handled required permitting, HOA approval, and utility interconnection requirements with no problems. During the process, each time I had questions they were handled promptly whether by email or phone call. Installation personnel completed the work in the two days promised and left our property in great shape. We are very happy with the system which has dropped our monthly bills so far to just a little above the utility company connection charge and taxes and reduced the carbon footprint of the house regardless of who lives here for years to come.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
