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

How does Renewable Energy Partners 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 Renewable Energy Partners 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.

Renewable Energy Partners 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 Integrity7.1/10

Reviewers most often describe the sales process as clear, patient, and helpful. They say questions were answered thoroughly and that proposal details and project expectations were laid out in a way that made the process easy to follow.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Clear explanations. Reviewers say the team took time to explain the solar process, financing options, and next steps in plain language. They describe the sales experience as attentive rather than rushed. Representative review excerpt: "They patiently answered all my questions, addressing my concerns and providing comprehensive information about solar panel installation, financing options, and the overall process."

Helpful project structure. Some reviewers note that the handoff from sales into administration and installation felt organized and contract-driven. That suggests the proposal and downstream execution were presented with a clear structure. Representative review excerpt: "Once you are done with sales the project moves to administrative, then install which is driven by the tech drawings, which is derived from the contract."

Owner involvement. A few reviewers also point to the owner’s demeanor as a positive part of the sales experience, describing the interaction as honest and caring. That theme supports the generally favorable score in this area. Representative review excerpt: "Best thing about this company is the owner - don't think I have ever conducted business with a more caring and honest person."

Price & financing transparency

Price Transparency6.7/10

Feedback on pricing and financing is mostly positive, but the evidence base is smaller and includes one serious complaint. Reviewers commonly say financing details were explained clearly, while one reviewer reported a dispute tied to payment and review editing.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Financing details explained. Reviewers say financing options and overall cost-related questions were explained clearly during the sales process. That suggests customers generally felt informed before moving forward. Representative review excerpt: "They patiently answered all my questions, addressing my concerns and providing comprehensive information about solar panel installation, financing options, and the overall process."

Trust in the owner. Some reviewers connect their sense of pricing fairness and transparency to the owner’s approach, describing the experience as honest. This is consistent with the mostly favorable tone in the pricing category. Representative review excerpt: "Best thing about this company is the owner - don't think I have ever conducted business with a more caring and honest person."

Payment dispute report. One reviewer describes a dispute involving payment and a request to change a negative review. This is the main negative signal in the category and is the reason the score sits below the strongest tiers. Representative review excerpt: "Threatened not to pay me unless I changed a bad review I wrote because he originally wasn't going to pay me at all."

Communication & coordination

Communication7.0/10

Communication reviews are generally positive, with customers saying calls, emails, and project questions were handled responsively. There is one mixed and one negative signal, mostly around a missed or late follow-up, but the broader pattern is steady project coordination.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Responsive contact. Reviewers say the company responded quickly to calls and emails and kept communication lines open during the project. They describe the team as helpful in explaining details and addressing concerns along the way. Representative review excerpt: "They were helpful in explaining details to me and responded quickly to my calls and emails."

Ongoing check-ins. Some reviewers note follow-up after completion, saying they were checked in on over time and felt treated like ongoing clients. That points to a hands-on coordination style beyond the initial install. Representative review excerpt: "Tom has checked in with us several times over the past year and that lets us know we are a client and not just another job completed and the company..."

Missed follow-up. One reviewer reports a repair visit that did not happen as expected and required additional follow-up. This suggests coordination can be uneven in service situations even though most feedback is positive. Representative review excerpt: "When the repair guy didn't show up that day, I followed up and he said the repair guy was running late yesterday and would come by first thing in the..."

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability6.7/10

Timeline feedback is positive overall, but this is one of the more mixed areas in the profile. Reviewers mention prompt installs and efficient work, yet a few note delays tied to permits, scheduling, or a no-show/late visit.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Prompt installation. Some reviewers say the equipment was installed promptly and efficiently, with the work moving along smoothly once the project was ready to begin. These comments support the stronger side of the timeline score. Representative review excerpt: "REP installed my solar equipment for my home promptly and efficiently."

Permit-related delay. One reviewer reports that the project moved more slowly than expected because city permits took longer than anticipated. Even so, that reviewer still ended up satisfied with the overall outcome. Representative review excerpt: "The install went a bit slower than expected due to the city permits taking longer than expected, but ultimately I am very satisfied with the project and would work with..."

Scheduling miss. A separate reviewer says an install or repair did not start or finish on time, which adds to the category’s delay concerns. The complaint pattern is not dominant, but it is present enough to matter at this score level. Representative review excerpt: "Install was not started on time, nor was it completed on time….BUT Amy did a great job having all paperwork in order."

Workmanship & site care

Workmanship7.2/10

Workmanship is one of the strongest areas in the review set. Customers consistently describe clean installs, professional crews, and attention to detail, with no meaningful complaint pattern in the evidence provided.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Clean install. Reviewers say the installation was neat, with conduit placed cleanly and painted to match when needed. That kind of detail suggests good site care and finish quality. Representative review excerpt: "They did a clean install with conduit tight to the panels and painted to match."

Professional crews. Customers describe technicians and installers as professional, knowledgeable, and attentive during the job. They also note that crews showed up on time and completed work efficiently. Representative review excerpt: "The technicians/installers were very professional and knowledgeable, they show up on time and complete the project ahead of schedule."

Attention to detail. Reviewers highlight careful workmanship in difficult conditions and praise the team’s willingness to work hard while keeping the project on track. The overall pattern is strongly favorable for installation quality. Representative review excerpt: "I was impressed with his willingness to work in very hot conditions and his attention to detail."

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support7.1/10

Post-install feedback is mostly positive, with reviewers saying the system was working, follow-up was personal, and repair help was available when needed. A small number of complaints point to tuning or service issues after activation, so the category is positive but not flawless.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

System working well. Several reviewers say the system was up and working and that the panels performed well after installation. These comments support the stronger end of the long-term performance score. Representative review excerpt: "Pleased that it is up and working."

Follow-up after completion. Reviewers also mention post-install check-ins and additional visits to make sure everything was operating correctly. That suggests a degree of support after the system was turned on. Representative review excerpt: "He worked quickly and came back just to make sure everything was working correctly."

Post-install tuning issues. A small number of reviewers describe service needs after activation, including tuning or troubleshooting concerns. These reports show that long-term support can require follow-up in some cases. Representative review excerpt: "There are some indicators that the Enphase system needs some tuning, proactive alerts, CT accuracy, etc."

Bottom line: RENEWABLE ENERGY PARTNERS earns a 7.9/10 Solar.com Installer Score based on generally positive reviews, especially for workmanship, sales clarity, and ongoing support. The main caution flags are in pricing transparency and timeline reliability, where a small number of reviewers report disputes or delays tied to scheduling, permits, or follow-up service.

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.
