    I have wanted to upgrade my 14 year old solar system (previously installed by Sun Light & Power) with additional panels and battery backup ever since undergoing several unplanned power outages. SL&P were upfront about upgrade possibilities and the time line. I was kept well informed and the crew were extremely professional with the job well thought out in advance of installation. Having seen many other installations in my neighborhood I am blown away at SL&P's efficiency. Simply put I would not use anyone else for my solar and power needs.

    Gary and his team at Sun Light & Power installed a fantastic system at our home in Walnut Creek which has drastically reduced out energy bills. We have an almost 100 year old very energy inefficient home and the solar system installed by Sun Light & Power a number of years ago has made a huge difference in our comfort and peace of mind. Everyone we have had contact with at Sun Light & Power have been friendly, courteous and professional. I would recommend Sun Light & Power to anyone thinking about

    SL&P did an outstanding job of installing our PV and battery system, adding it in piecemeal as construction of our new house proceeded. No follow-up has been necessary, the system has been working without any problems. With this system and a car now being charged at home our utility electric bill has been reduced to the fixed delivery charge, only, for months. And we have not had to reduce electricity usage during peak periods.

    I have an old 1980s vintage solar thermal system in Oakland. A few months ago they replaced a 4' x 8' panel with a new one from Heliodyne. More recently they programmed my pump controller for telemetry and re-insulated all the supply pipes. They even helped with some damage during that last vicious wind storm. I've appreciated the level of communication that I've received from the SL&P team. I feel good about the fact that I have a go-to service vendor for solar thermal without getting pressured to purchase a new system.

    They installed the wrong size inverter and would not work with me to fix the problem. I was even willing to pay for any additional costs that were incurred.

    Sun Light and Power has serviced our solar hot water heater for 20 years. It was in place when we moved into our house and is now over 30 years old and still basically working. Recently the supplemental hot water tank started leaking and we needed service fast. Ian, who is their great service technician, emailed me extensively to help me turn off the system and then was able to make a visit to finalize shutting down the system. We have always received professional advice and great help from Sun Light and power.

    Great service! After 14 years of solar power, our solar inverter stopped working. We received a fast response and excellent service from Sun Light & Power. Adam came out to assess our system and a week later we were back on the grid.

    My husband hired Sun Light and Power to put solar on our house in 1977. Over the years, we did a couple of upgrades as technology improved. We just had our third system with them installed in 2014. The experience from beginning to end (we did talk with other companies) was exemplary....as it has been for nearly 40 years. Terrific team from sales to installation, competent, friendly, professional.

    I got bids and interviewed 6 firms, 4 from SF, one from Marin, and Sun Light & Power. Most of the reps were very helpful, but Eric, from Sun Light & Power was really thorough and informative, without any pressure. One national firm was relentless in their pitch, which turned me off.

    Thanks for getting Matthew out to see me as quickly as you did. He did a fantastic job and got my system up to speed in no time. He was very professional and competent. Also very courteous and patient when explaining my system to me. I hope he stays with the company a long time. A huge improvement from the last guy who would sometimes not return my calls and one time totally blew off showing up for a scheduled repair. Scott B.

    In 2006 we decided we needed solar power and contacted our friends who had Sun, Light and Power install solar power for them and were very pleased. Sun, Light and Power came out to our house to look at the layout and determine how much power we could generate. Their people were very professional and thorough throughout their proposal and installation. They answered all of our questions and concerns. Our system last year performed much better than expected and our PG&E bill went from $400 per month in 2005 to $171 PER YEAR in 2012 even with electricity rates rising many times since 2006. Since October, 2006, we have reduced our CO2 emissions by approximately 155,000 pounds making our environment much greener.

    This is a first class company - with a B Corp designation for Social and Environmental Responsibility and have just won the Intelligant Award. Terrific people, Quality work - they walk the talk. I researched solar companies and they really stood out for the values and expertise I want in a solar company.

    I called, they came by, they looked at our smallish home in SF, explained exactly what things would cost, and even walked us through options, very patient throughout. I got my house solar-powered three years ago, and it's been pretty fantastic. Everyone from the sales person to the contractors doing the install were smart, loved their jobs, and were really interested in doing what they were doing. Either that or they're given happy pills each morning.
