Jim Sikora on 180 Solar Power

I was very pleased today. SDGE had a planned maintenance outage so our neighborhood had a power outage for a couple hours. Our battery backup system worked as we had planned out with Peter and 180 Solar. Refrigerator and microwave worked. Also had TV and internet. Love it when a plan comes together.

Tom Stanford on 180 Solar Power

Installed my original solar electric system in 2019. Great job! Recently they also added more panels to increase my power to offset more AC during the summer months. They reviewed the rules and were able to add panels without causing a switch to NEM3! Again they did a good job and got it done in a reasonable time.

Lynn Gibson on 180 Solar Power

Peter shared more information with me than any of the solicitors with all the "deals". I appreciate honesty & won't give an excellent review unless it's been earned from being to end. We've had our first true up (a full year) of $0 & a credit still remaining on our account with SDG&E. This without a battery. After installation they still take care of their customers! Above & beyond. I highly recommend them for every good reason any of us can hope for! Price, performance & customer care/service.

Leon Lafreniere on 180 Solar Power

After 3 years with our solar panels we decided to upgrade and add a battery storage system. Peter came out and figured what we’d need for our house.
With blackouts, planned and unplanned outages and cyber attacks looming we’re happy to be able to live off the grid.
His team is very helpful, very professional and does great work.
Get your battery storage system. The 26% tax credit is still in effect for 2021.

john suarez on 180 Solar Power

My neighbors hired 180 Solar Power to install a solar system for them last year, and raved about how great they were, so when we started looking into solar we met with 180 Solar Power too. We also ended up hiring them to install our solar system last year, and we couldn't be happy with the results! Their was absolutely no sales pressure put on us whatsoever. When we had questions about the design and configuration of the solar system in the initial planning stages of the project, the owner of the company, Peter Stern, actually took the time to come out and meet with us personally to make sure that all of our concerns were being addressed. The installation crew was fantastic. They showed up on time, they were clean cut and professional, they cleaned up the job site every day, and they actually finished the project 1 day ahead of schedule. Best of all, our average electric bill has dropped from an average of $400 a month, to about $10 a month! 180 Solar Power did everything they said they would do, and we are loving the savings. We highly recommend 180 Solar Power. Great company, great people, great results.
