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

How does Planet Oath Energy 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 Planet Oath Energy 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.

Planet Oath Energy reviews: what customers say

An independent synthesis of published customer feedback, updated September 28, 2026. Green marks praise, amber mixed experiences, red complaints.

Sales & proposal integrity

Sales Integrity7.2/10

Reviewers describe the sales process as clear and professional, with explanations of system options and savings presented without pressure. The available reviews in this category are consistently positive, so there is little evidence of concern around proposal clarity or expectation-setting.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Clear walkthroughs. Reviewers say representatives explained system options in a straightforward way and helped them understand the savings conversation. The process is described as informative rather than forceful. Representative review excerpt: "Anthony explained the system options clearly, walked me through the savings, and never pressured me into anything."

Professional, no-pressure approach. Customers also report that consultations felt honest and not forced, with a professional tone throughout the interaction. Representative review excerpt: "My rep Roberto explained to me the different options I had without making it feel forced."

Consultant professionalism. A reviewer specifically describes the consultant as professional and honest, reinforcing the positive pattern in this category. Representative review excerpt: "I worked with Anthony Lopes he was very professional and honest I would recommend him as your consultant"

Price & financing transparency

Price Transparency6.7/10

The review evidence here is limited, but the available feedback points to a generally positive experience with pricing and budget fit. Because only one substantive review appears in this category, the picture is encouraging but not broad enough to make a strong conclusion about pricing consistency.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Budget fit. One reviewer says the project stayed within budget and describes the overall experience as positive from a cost perspective. Representative review excerpt: "I can’t say enough great things about this company everything from professionalism, expedience, and working writhing my budget."

Limited pricing evidence. There are not enough reviews in this category to show a wide pattern on financing terms, deposits, refund handling, or surprise costs. Representative review excerpt: "I can’t say enough great things about this company everything from professionalism, expedience, and working writhing my budget."

Communication & coordination

Communication7.2/10

Reviewers most often describe strong communication, with frequent updates, quick responses, and helpful coordination across steps in the project. There is one complaint about delays in getting a visit or callback, so the category is mostly positive but not flawless.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Frequent updates. Customers say they were kept updated throughout the project and felt the process stayed smooth and manageable. Representative review excerpt: "He kept me updated every step of the way and made the entire experience smooth and worry-free."

Responsive support. Reviewers report quick answers and clear information when questions came up, which helped reduce uncertainty during the project. Representative review excerpt: "What stood out most was his professionalism and responsiveness — anytime I had a question, he was quick to answer with clear and honest information."

Rare coordination miss. One reviewer describes a situation where a promised visit or callback did not happen as expected, suggesting that communication can occasionally break down during scheduling. Representative review excerpt: "To this day they said we are in the que for the 8-12 to be seen and have not seen or been called by them."

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability7.0/10

Reviewers generally describe the timeline as smooth, with several noting timely completion from application through commissioning. There is one complaint about overall timeliness, so the pattern is positive but includes a caution on schedule consistency.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

End-to-end process handling. Customers say the company managed the process from application to approval, install, and commissioning, which suggests solid follow-through on project milestones. Representative review excerpt: "They did everything from application to approval / install and commissioning."

Fast install and commissioning. Several reviewers describe the installation process as fast and say the project moved smoothly through commissioning. Representative review excerpt: "The install process was fast and the installation was flawless🙏🏽"

Timing concern. One reviewer says the overall timeliness was not very good, even though the install itself was completed in one day. Representative review excerpt: "Time estimate outside of the completed one day install ( which I have not checked the roof yet for broken tiles) the timeliness is not very good."

Workmanship & site care

Workmanship7.4/10

The installation feedback is largely positive, with reviewers describing professional crews, clean results, and strong overall workmanship. A single concern appears around possible roof damage and timing, but it is not a dominant theme in the available reviews.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Flawless install experience. Reviewers describe the installation process as fast and the finished work as flawless. Representative review excerpt: "The install process was fast and the installation was flawless🙏🏽"

Professional, clean result. Customers say the installation looked good, the staff were excellent, and the overall experience felt professional. Representative review excerpt: "The installation was beautiful Staff were excellent, great people to deal with."

Possible site-care concern. One reviewer notes concern about timing and mentions not yet checking the roof for broken tiles, which leaves a caution about site care in isolated cases. Representative review excerpt: "Time estimate outside of the completed one day install ( which I have not checked the roof yet for broken tiles) the timeliness is not very good."

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support7.4/10

Post-install feedback is favorable, with reviewers saying the system performed as promised and, in some cases, helped with household energy needs right away. There is one complaint tied to follow-up timing, but the overall pattern centers on positive performance and effective early support.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Performance met expectations. Reviewers say the system is performing as promised and that they felt confident after the installation. Representative review excerpt: "The installation went smoothly, the system is performing exactly as promised, and I feel confident knowing I made the right choice."

Helpful energy-bill outcome. One reviewer reports that the installation addressed high energy bills and that they have not seen a true-up bill since. Representative review excerpt: "Roberto Castaneda helped me address my high energy bills, and since the installation, I haven't had a true-up bill."

Follow-up timing concern. A reviewer raises a concern about timing after install, including uncertainty about roof condition, which suggests post-install support may not always feel fully resolved right away. Representative review excerpt: "Time estimate outside of the completed one day install ( which I have not checked the roof yet for broken tiles) the timeliness is not very good."

Bottom line: Across 20 substantive Google reviews, PLANET OATH ENERGY’s profile is mostly positive, with especially strong feedback on communication, installation quality, and sales clarity. The main cautions are isolated complaints about timing and follow-up, while pricing evidence is limited but generally favorable in the available reviews.

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.
