I Tried Solar Energy and Here's What I Learned

You’ve heard a lot of people say they’re thinking about installing solar panels. You’ve done a bit of research on solar energy in your state. Maybe you’ve even looked at a few quotes! 

But you’re still wondering, is solar energy right for my home?

We know most people prefer to buy products that have honest reviews and testimonials. Let’s face it, you’re way more likely to buy something on Amazon that has 50 reviews vs 2 reviews! 

So we decided to ask several of our customers to share what their experience has been like with solar energy! These are their compiled answers, which are based on the testimonial video below.

Why did you choose to go solar?

Basically it was because we had high electric bills. We also have a pool, and during the summer we have the filter on all the time, we have our AC on, it was just costing us a lot of money. So we thought we’d look into how much money we’d save by switching to solar energy.

Are you saving any money with solar energy?

Yes, absolutely. We’ve had solar energy for about 2 years now, and the savings we get each month ends up paying for the installment. We haven’t had an electric bill in months. We actually ended up making a bit of profit by selling the excess energy back to the electric company.

How did you get a quote for solar panels?

We looked at several different places, about four or five companies. We wanted to be able to compare rates. And a lot of them made it seem really complicated. But we ended up with Solar Me because they made everything so easy. They were also really personable, and they remembered who we were.

Do you lease or own your solar panels?

We own them! But a lot of other places told us it wasn’t possible for us to own our panels, and that we would have to lease them. And Solar Me let us know you can own your solar panels. And they handled all of that. They set up a payment plan, it was really seamless.

Did you qualify for any tax incentives for solar energy?

We did, that’s actually one of the reasons why we decided to switch. And Solar Me makes it possible for you to own your solar panels, so you get the tax refund for owning the system. Why give that money away?

Thank you so much to our customers for offering to provide their feedback! We love our customers, and were thrilled when they chose to work with Solar Me for their energy needs.


If you’re a homeowner, and want to save money as well as invest in your home value, it’s a good idea to switch to solar.
