 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with California Renewable Energy was a pleasure. This project had been a nightmare for the last two years, but when California Renewable Energy came in, along with Solar Doctors, things went fast, smoothly, and we couldn't be happier with our ground mount setup.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We found Nate Blanton on a Facebook ad. We contacted him and received a call from him. After a brief conversation, we set up a meeting to discuss replacing our messed up roof and installation of solar panels with battery back up. He arrived at our house on a Saturday due to my spouse working during the week. We spent several hours going over materials that would best suit our needs and a price we could afford. His dedication to his company and great customer service had us sold. We were in contract within a couple of days. There was a bit of confusion with the permit office which was no fault of Nate or the company he works for. Brent, their representative, spent hours at the permit office and kept us informed and worked through all of the kinks that the permit office threw at us. Nate kept in contact with us through everything assuring us everything would go smoothly. We had many questions and he would have the answers immediately. The big day came and our roof was installed. It is a vision of beauty. It's perfect and we're confident in the workmanship that we received. We have recommended Nate to our family, friends and neighbors. The work passed inspection the first time, which is impressive for our county. We are happy that we found this company and to have met Nate.

The windows themselves are beautiful, the install was smooth, and we were also treated to a luxurious welcome package. California Renewable Energy demonstrated itself to be a truly excellent company to collaborate with, and we will be doing many more projects with them in the future!

Frequently Asked Questions

How do solar panels work?

Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic cells that create an electric field and generate current.

What are the benefits of solar energy?

Solar energy is renewable, reduces electricity bills, decreases carbon footprint, and can increase property value. It also provides energy independence and can have financial incentives like tax credits.

How long do solar panels last?

Most solar panels come with a warranty of 25-30 years, but they can last even longer if maintained properly. Their efficiency might decrease slightly over time.

What is net metering?

Net metering is a billing mechanism that credits solar energy system owners for the electricity they add to the grid. If you generate more electricity than you use, you can get credited for the surplus.

Can I install solar panels myself?

While some homeowners may choose to install solar panels themselves, it's generally recommended to hire a professional to ensure the system is installed correctly and safely.
