Alder Energy Systems

The sales person and installers for Alder were professional and knowledgeable. They followed through as promised and were responsive to questions in a timely fashion. The estimate of power production they provided has been accurate so far and the system has been trouble free. All in all a very positive experience.

The crew is very professional, very respectable and very easy to get along with. They did the job very well.

This is a great company.  I received a slightly lower bid from another company, but I'm glad I chose Alder. They use higher quality panels and inverters, and the installers were very prompt and professional. From initial bidding and design to final inspections, they handled it all promptly and efficiently. The final result looks great and is working as advertised.  Highly recommended!

Everything went good. They were very responsive.

they were very good.  They communicated very well.  They were knowledgeable

Having construction experience in my past, I was looking for a contractor that would deliver quality materials and professional work. Because of time constraints to perform the work before year end. the schedule was extremely critical. Alder Energy impressed me in their can-do spirit and they met and exceeded my expectations. Since then, there has been some follow up needed with the equipment suppliers and they have responded beyond the call of duty and continue to monitor the situation to insure that the system is at peak operating performance. I highly recommend this team for their professionalism and their personal relationship capacity. Great Job.

I was extremely impressed with Alder Energy Systems from beginning to end. I was in the market for a solar energy system for my home and remembered the company Blue Marble Solar from a green fair many years ago. I discovered that Blue Marble had merged with Alder Energy Systems a little bit ago so I completed the contact form on their website. The next day I got a call from Don Zimmerman, one of the owners who gave me a lot of really helpful information over the phone about their systems and the latest technology. They setup a consultation a few days later and when they arrived I was immediately impressed at how much preparation they'd done. They had already pulled up satellite photos of my home and sketched out a potential design, along with a lot of other useful information about how much electricity it would generate here in Mount Pleasant.

They provided a detailed quote within a few days and the price seemed very competitive so I locked it in and they arranged a mutually agreeable installation date. They were great about staying in touch leading up to the install and giving me a lot of personal attention. Given that they do a wide range of projects I was initially a little concerned that since my system was on the smaller end I'd get put on the back burner as they worked on much larger commercial projects. But that wasn't the case at all. The installation took two and a half days. Scottie is the main installer and he is the nicest guy you'll ever meet. He's from New Zealand which just makes him that much cooler. He and Josh did an outstanding job with the installation (including working during a Heat Advisory). They are very detail-oriented, conscientious people who clearly care about the customer. Even after the install I was able to call Scottie about any questions and he kept me in the loop on when the town and SCE&G inspectors would be out.

Something that really struck me about Alder Energy Systems is that it has a small but very knowledgeable staff. Sometimes when you talk to professionals it's rather frightening because you seem to know more than they do about something in their area of expertise. But that's absolutely not the case with Alder. They clearly have a lot of experience installing alternative energy systems in the Carolinas and know their trade forward and backward. I learned so much about the local solar energy industry through the process. Kudos to Alder Energy Systems. They deserve your business.
