I have a solar system that was orphaned by Sunnova - a company that went bankrupt ...in addition my system was malfunctioning .Connected Energy Solar saved the day...Contacted Solar Edge, replaced the inverter and set up the app. The guys are a pleasure to work with efficient in all aspects.Wish I had found them sooner.

This company runs an impressive operation. The crew that installed the panels worked through some pretty bad weather to get this done. The work looks excellent. They also did some work to upgrade my electrical service so I could also charge an EV. Dunnegan worked through some big bureaucratic hurdles, helping me navigate a lot of permits, to make this happen within a very short time frame. They guided me through the process and made it happen. They knew exactly how to navigate existing codes, which made it so the system passed inspection easily. I'm very happy with my system. With electricity prices rising quickly in the coming years, I highly recommend people explore going solar with a reputable company like Connected Energy Solar.

If you are here then you have had a couple of solar companies knock on your door, give you the 1 hour pitch, then give you a price more than you're expecting, and then sell you financing in order to get you to commit on the spot. Connected is different, they ask for the address, give you an assessment based on your DLC bill, and then propose a solution specific to your needs and house footprint. At no point I felt I was being rushed to make a decision. At one point in my project, better solar panels that are made in the USA became available, and Connected made sure I get them, saving me 10% off of the imported panels. This is truly a white glove service. You get a better solar system at less than half the price of these door knockers. 5 stars is what Connected earned!

This is the most professional, and competent company I have dealt with in a long time. Excellent communications, installation and customer service. Other Solar companies draw the process out endlessly (as seen from neighbors' experience). This was effortless and fast fast fast. Thank you Dunnegan! We are more than satisfied with your company's performance.

Dunnegan and crew were very knowledgeable and thorough. Small business where the owners are also on the roof. They are right on the money when they sized our project. Extremely neat in placing the equipment. I can’t recommend them enough!
