We were planning a new home build p on the Westside facing east, and this was to me no ordinary home. We wanted to build a home for what we KNOW is coming! We chose to build a Method Homes modular prefabricated sustainable home, which I modified a lot to be even more sustainable and future-ready. Solar power was a priority. I had panels in our old home in Culver City, 3.5kw, since seven years already, and I'm an industrial designer, so I had a great foundation for choosing a great contractor. I interviewed several, checked some references, and easily chose Aaron and Good Energy Renewables (now ... Solar). The thing that clinched my choice was that he clearly had high integrity, was open in his bidding process, and had some excellent references. We even attended the same design college, and I know that when you put an industrial designer on a task, it gets done right! We agreed upon the largest system the city would allow me to install, and he helped me position it on the garage roof so that in the future, when they wise up, we could more than double the size of the array. Aaron recommended SunPower Inverter Panels and I agreed. The most efficient in the industry, solid warranty, easy to expand, and gorgeous. Aaron's team was great. They handled the whole paperwork element, and designed a system that fit my budget and needs perfectly. The installation was so fast, and IMMACULATE! I'm a master builder, and I have very high standards in my own work, ad demand the same of my teams. Good Energy Solar easily satisfied me because they are the same. The system is working perfectly, is so nice looking and easy o monitor. The entire process was seamless and effortless! I can't recommend them highly enough. Look no further. They will set you right with award-winning installation, design and follow up. Thanks GES! You guys ROCKED IT! (I pasted this review from the one I wrote this morning on Yelp. I stand by it, and HIGHLY recommend Aaron’s company Good Energy Renewables ( AKA Good Energy Solar). L. E.

The work went excellent from initial contact to powering up the system. The initial response was immediate and the system was up and running within two weeks. The project was completed on budget.

We made the decision to work with a local solar panel installer. Good Energy Solar proved to be a wonderful choice. We highly recommend Good Energy Solar. They have a positive, professional spirit; technically savvy, timely, responsive. The aesthetics of the installation matter to them. From start to finish they were on top of our project. They are passionate about the environment. Good Energy Solar did what they said they would do, on schedule, with craftsmanship. One of the reasons we chose them is because they use Sunpower solar panels. If you research solar panels it becomes clear these are great panels. It's what Apple put on their new building.

It went very well.  They installed it when they committed to doing so, cleaned up well, and explained how the system works along the way.  The payment plan was fair and Aaron got the rebate worked out from the government without me having to do anything.
