Grateful for Exceptional Support from Mr. Eduardo Santoyo

We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to Mr. Eduardo Santoyo for his dedication and outstanding customer service. His quick responses and patience have been invaluable during our recent challenges with our solar system. The Facts: Our solar system, installed by NRG Clean Power, includes a Solar Edge Control Unit, Solar Edge Inverter, and LG Battery. Mr. Eduardo Santoyo, from NRG Clean Power, has been our primary support contact. On April 25th, our solar system stopped generating power. Solar Edge's monitoring system promptly notified us of the failure. We contacted Mr. Santoyo, who swiftly identified the inverter as the issue and coordinated with Solar Edge to create case #4790153 around April 30th. Despite Solar Edge's establishment of an Enhanced Service group, their response was slow and mostly limited to emails. Mr. Santoyo continuously pushed for updates and kept us informed. By May 3rd, Mr. Santoyo informed us that the RMA service was approved, and a replacement inverter was expected to arrive by May 9th. However, due to delays from Solar Edge, the inverter did not arrive until May 21st. Mr. Santoyo persisted in ensuring we received the inverter, maintaining constant communication. Even after the delivery, it took nine more days for Solar Edge to send a technician from Sunnova to replace the inverter on May 30th. Unfortunately, the new inverter had issues communicating with the LG battery. Mr. Santoyo again took charge, working with Solar Edge to find a solution. It took 12 days for Solar Edge to respond with a fix, which required a complete system power cycle. Mr. Santoyo provided detailed instructions and a video to guide us through the process. Overall, it took Solar Edge 48 days to resolve the issue, causing us significant financial losses. We highly recommend consumers planning to purchase a solar system to carefully verify the quality of the products and the reputation of the service teams of both the component suppliers and the installation company. While we have been disappointed by the poor product quality and service from Solar Edge, we are grateful for Mr. Eduardo Santoyo's relentless support and exceptional service. Thank you, Mr. Santoyo, for your unwavering commitment to helping us through this challenging period.

Hire NRG for Your Solar Projects

The price, installation and speed for my solar project are second to none. Before I contacted NRG, I got several quotes from large and independent companies and their quotes cant match NRG in price( one had double the price of NRG), knowledges of solar system, completion date, warranty and payment schedules. I purchased 20 REC Alpha Pure-R 420 W panels and Powerwall 3 for a bit over $30k. The installation was done in one day. The whole project was done in 10 weeks. The 3-payment schedule is unthinkable great. I made the second payment after receiving all materials. The panels generate so much juice and I need to add one more Powerwall 3 battery which has built-in inverters. NRG provides an iPhone app with 9 stages. Each stage has a project manager with a large pool of resources. Every person in NRG is more than eager to make customer happy and satisfied. I'm extremely happy and completely satisfied with is solar project. Best of all, I'm almost off the grid and saving hundreds each month. P.S. An EV is charged daily.

We just wrapped up installation with NRG and our experience was brilliant. It is a long process - between personal research before reaching out, selecting NRG, design, permitting and installation - it takes a minute. All that being said, the experience was extremely smooth compared to stories I've heard and read about in general and with other vendors. When it came to the installation process specifically, we worked with Aracely and team and they were truly excellent. They were informative and collaborative in their approach. I'm always a fan of over-communication so the client knows what's going on, particularly with something that can be complicated like solar. The highlight for me was when the city inspector came out and let me know that the installation was one of the best he'd seen, so much so that he brought another inspector over to our property to look at the installation, highlighting the positives.

A $57K Solar System Disaster: Beware of Their Shoddy Service!

Poor communication among their teams led to a complete disaster with my solar system setup. I explicitly told them I needed to charge two EVs and power two ACs, which is why I upgraded from Powerwall 2 to 3. But the system they installed is utterly useless for that purpose. Instead, I ended up with a $57K system that's only good for powering light bulbs, a fridge, and the WiFi. Now, they have the nerve to ask for more money to fix their screw-up. Beware, once they have your money, they couldn't care less about you or any after-sale service!

Frankie Gutierrez is great!

He's been my point person at NRG. I just closed the deal but haven't had installation yet; so far, Frankie has been so communicative and knowledgeable, and I'm feel great about the plan we have in place!!

Excellent Design and Installation Experience

Worked with NRG for about 18 months while our house was going through a major remodel in Palos Verdes Estates. I found their design and installation process to be thorough, very good quality, and responsive. Numerous (difficult) reviews and permits required by our city with the HOA, Fire Dept, Building Dept, and Edison. There were some challenges, but our project was complex with 24 panels, 2 Tesla Power-Wall batteries, and the city being very picky about aesthetics. Overall, they did a very nice job, and I say that coming from a background in building construction and Electrical Engineering. I was impressed with the response times to deal with issues and the continued follow-up by Edward Rodriguez, our activation manager. We have a couple apps now showing system operational status and energy management from the panels and the batteries. Highly recommend!

Excellent Company

Aracely Lopez was my Installation Coordinator and did an excellent job. Aracely was very professional and personal. I was kept informed throughout the entire installation and questions were always immediately addressed. The Installation Crew was also excellent. They even matched paint to have the metal conduits match and blend with with my home.

GREAT EXPERIENCE

We recently had solar panels installed at our home by NRG Clean Power. It’s too soon to tell if our expectations of financial benefit from the use of these panels will happen so at this time we want to comment on the people who worked with us throughout the installation process. We had contact with a number of people at NRG but mostly we worked with Priscilla Cook and John Weigel. Both John and Priscilla are professional and knowledgeable and absolutely wonderful to work with. Throughout the process I constantly pestered Priscilla with questions. In each instance she responded promptly and with respect and with patience. I can’t say enough nice things about her. John was fantastic. He was always pleasant and, like Priscilla, was patient and respectful. He did his very best to help us understand the solar process and he spent extra time making sure that our electric panel worked properly. He considered what would be convenient for us with regard to the placement of the main service panel, and he made sure that everything was clean and neat before he left. We feel very fortunate that we were assigned to Priscilla and John.

Great Experience

I committed to NRG back in July, and the project was completed in December. The seemingly long timeline was mostly due to city permits, and inspection schedule. My contact, Gabriel Weizman kept me in the loop the entire way. Several times I had a question about the process, and Gabriel anticipated it and sent an email with the information I needed before I asked! And just the other day, long after my project was completed, I had a question and Gabriel got right back to me. I highly recommend NRG, and loved working with Gabriel.
