#596 of 678 scored in California by Solar.com Installer Score

How does Energyaid compare where you live? Rankings are local; an installer that leads one city can trail in the next. See how they rank in your city →

Why this differs from star ratings: most five-star reviews say “great company” and stop, and star averages reward that. These category scores only count reviews with concrete evidence, weighted by recency and the reviewer’s track record. A company can hold a strong star average while specific categories score lower; that gap is usually where the real story is. Categories with more complaints than praise are the questions worth asking any bidder, not necessarily dealbreakers.

Where Energyaid builds

County-by-county activity from CPUC records through May 2026.

What this data covers: *Counts on this page, including the totals up top, come from investor-owned-utility interconnection records (SCE, SDG&E, PG&E). Work in municipal-utility territory, such as LADWP or city utilities, and outside California does not appear here, so this company's true totals are higher than shown. Unlike the county rankings, this profile also shows counties below the 250-install ranking floor.

Energyaid reviews: what customers say

An independent synthesis of published customer feedback across Google and Yelp, updated September 23, 2026. Green marks praise, amber mixed experiences, red complaints.

Sales & proposal integrity

Sales Integrity4.1/10

Reviewers are split between clear, informative sales visits and complaints about pressure, high upfront charges, and quotes that did not feel straightforward. The overall pattern leans negative, with more criticism than praise in this category.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Pressure and quote concerns. Other reviewers describe pressure around signing, upfront charges, and sales handling that felt more focused on selling than diagnosing. Representative review excerpt: "The company was "

Helpful but follow-up uncertain. A few reviews mention a helpful initial consultation but uncertainty about whether promised next steps or follow-up would happen. Representative review excerpt: "Had all the answers ,so I asked him we would like a battery system… will he follow up on that we shall see…"

Clear explanations on some visits. Some reviewers say the sales visit was informative, with detailed analysis and straightforward explanations of what the system needed. Representative review excerpt: "Felt very good that he did a detailed analysis of our system."

Price & financing transparency

Price Transparency2.5/10

This is the weakest-scoring category, and reviewers frequently report unclear pricing, surprise charges, and disputes about inspection or diagnostic costs. A small number of customers say pricing was explained clearly or felt worthwhile, but those reviews are outweighed by complaints about payment expectations and final cost.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Unexpected charges and high estimates. Many reviewers say pricing felt excessive or unclear, especially for inspections, diagnostics, and added repair work. Representative review excerpt: "Then I got a quote for almost $3000 for them to come out and diagnose further and disassemble the array to see why it's not producing or reporting energy."

Payment expectations caused friction. Some reviews describe confusion or conflict over when payment was due and what had been agreed to in advance. Representative review excerpt: "As soon as I hung up phone he demanded I pay the money, I said no, your company said I pay next time and you heard her and acknowledged it."

Some felt the charge was explained. A smaller set of customers say the initial fee or membership value was explained clearly and felt worthwhile. Representative review excerpt: "He even mentioned EnergyAids membership plan that they monitor my inverter and it included 1 inspection and 1 panel cleaning per year."

Communication & coordination

Communication5.8/10

Feedback here is mixed but leans positive: many reviewers praise responsiveness, punctual arrivals, and clear updates from technicians. At the same time, a meaningful group reports difficulty reaching staff, repeated follow-up attempts, or confusion after initial contact.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Responsive on-site coordination. Several reviewers say technicians called ahead, arrived within the window, and kept the job moving with clear updates. Representative review excerpt: "The tech called me before arriving and showed up within the window of service."

Hard to reach after the first contact. Other reviewers report repeated emails or calls were needed before they got a response, and some still had unresolved status questions. Representative review excerpt: "I asked about having someone come out and look it over to tell me what the cost would be and after I had to make repeated emails, I finally called..."

Good work, but communication gaps remained. A few reviews say the service outcome was fine even though reaching someone directly was still difficult. Representative review excerpt: "There is still an issue trying to reach anyone directly, without going to voicemail but the work was completed just fine."

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability4.9/10

Reviews point to a mixed record on timing. Some customers say appointments were kept and work was completed quickly, while others describe delays, late cancellations, and long waits for permit or follow-up updates.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

On-time visits reported. Some reviewers say the team arrived as scheduled and completed service efficiently. Representative review excerpt: "Schedule time the day before and showed up exactly on schedule."

Delays and rescheduling. Other reviewers describe having to wait for service dates, including late-day cancellations and long gaps before follow-up. Representative review excerpt: "I had to wait a week to get my solar serviced and on the day of servicing I got a call late in the day telling me that the service..."

Parts and follow-up extended the timeline. A few reviews note that the job was still waiting on parts or additional steps before it could be fully completed. Representative review excerpt: "Job won’t be complete until he installs the new part which is on order."

Workmanship & site care

Workmanship7.4/10

Workmanship and site care trend positive overall. Reviewers often describe crews as professional, thorough, and careful, though there are some complaints about damage, setup mistakes, or incomplete cleanup.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Professional, thorough crews. Many reviewers praise the team’s workmanship and say the technicians seemed to know what they were doing. Representative review excerpt: "The team was very thorough, professional, and clearly knew what they were doing."

Damage or setup mistakes in some cases. A smaller group reports installation or site-care problems, including panels or equipment not being put back correctly. Representative review excerpt: "Also in the process unhooked a panel did not put it back correctly and it flew with the wind cracked and damaged another"

Careful wrap-up and explanations. Others say the crew explained the work clearly and made sure everything was put back in place. Representative review excerpt: "Explained everything and made sure everything back in its place."

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support6.0/10

Post-install feedback is mixed. Reviewers commonly mention successful repairs, troubleshooting help, and warranty-related support, but there are also recurring complaints about systems remaining unresolved, monitoring issues, and expensive follow-up diagnostics.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Repairs and troubleshooting helped. Some reviewers say the company replaced parts, fixed issues, and helped them understand system options after service. Representative review excerpt: "They replaced our SolarEdge inverter and fixed the issues with our system."

Unresolved performance issues. Other reviewers report that systems were still not functioning as expected after service or that monitoring and troubleshooting were limited. Representative review excerpt: "We have been paying this company for over a year and it's still not functional."

Warranty and follow-up still evolving. A few reviews describe cases where the work was not fully finished yet, such as pending parts or added monitoring changes. Representative review excerpt: "We will need to switch our monitoring hardware and subscription, so there will be some cost, but that's what happens when businesses change for whatever reason."

Bottom line: ENERGYAID’s review profile is mixed overall, with stronger marks for workmanship and many positive comments on communication and on-site professionalism. The biggest concerns are pricing transparency, sales process expectations, and delayed or unresolved follow-up on some jobs.

Important context: this chart shows investor-owned-utility records only. Companies that shift work toward municipal-utility territory (LADWP and city power departments) or other states will show declining bars here even while building steadily elsewhere, and 2025-26 records also lag real installation dates. Treat this as a partial window, not the company's full trajectory.

How we built this data

Methodology: Counts are residential PV interconnections in investor-owned-utility territory (PG&E, SCE, SDG&E) per CPUC Rule 21 public records through May 2026. Postal and name variants are merged. Municipal utility territory such as LADWP, Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Anaheim, and Riverside Public Utilities is not included in those CPUC counts. Counts show recorded installations, not quality ratings. Reported costs are self-reported on owned-system interconnections. No installer can pay for placement.

Who we are: Solar.com is a solar marketplace — we connect homeowners with installers and earn a fee when projects move forward. These rankings and scores are computed from public installation records and published customer reviews. No installer can pay for placement, and no installer — including those we work with — can pay to change a score.
