Power Production installed my solar panels back in 2014. Dealing with the installation crew was an elite experience. I felt confident on choosing this company and now after 3 years and two hurricanes I am relieved I choose d them. The 8.25 kw system I have has earned me a credit with clay electric and the utility company ends up sending me a check every December.

So, you’ve decided to reduce your carbon footprint and reduce your energy costs (perhaps not in that order) by investing in, or at least checking out solar panels (let’s face it, most HOAs will not allow you to install a wind farm so solar is really the only way to go.) This is a big investment so you want to get it right. Trying to pick the right solar company can be confusing. Unless you have someone you trust to recommend a firm, you’re left to searching through a myriad of sites online that in some cases have dubious reviews. Even scheduling home visits with various companies can leave you undecided. Talking to salesmen can be misleading because, hey, they’re trying to sell you something. At this point I took a step back. I decided to look for the best Solar Panel and work from there. This search lead me to “SunPower” panels. These are without a doubt THE best residential panels available on the market today. Best warranty, best power production, smallest footprint, best longevity (least degradation) and just plain best quality. Don’t trust my say so, check out Consumer Reports – they have SunPower listed head and shoulders above the rest for years now! So how do I get a Sunpower system installed? Well, it turns out that Sunpower only allows approved installation companies for each area of the country. They must be trained and vetted to install Sunpower products. In Jacksonville Florida, where I live, that company is Power Production Management. Armed with this knowledge I checked out PPM and found that they had an impeccable reputation, great online reviews, great BBB rating AND, as I said, they are the preferred installer for the panels I wanted. Power Production Management did not disappoint. Right from the initial visit I could see the standard of professionalism I expected. The gentleman they sent was polite, informed, thorough, and made no wild promises. He was more of a “sales engineer” than a “salesman”. I was “sold”. The installers started a few months later and they did a great job. They had that same professional pride that resulted in a project that was neat and clean with everything perfectly straight and level. They took their time to make sure everything was perfect, right down to painting the outdoor conduits to match my house. The system has been up and running for over a year now. I’m saving money and I feel good about my choice environmentally. The monitoring system is fabulous and I can even check it out on my phone when I’m away from home. I’m still patting myself on the back for my choice of Power Production Management and Sunpower panels. You can’t go wrong making the same choice.

Overall, the installers were very courteous and careful with my property. The installation took a little longer than expected, about a week or so, but the install crew was very professional and highly knowledgeable. The roofing aspect of the install was done very well, and there have been no roof leaks. The office staff was very responsive, efficient and professional. I really appreciate the nice binder they give you with all the relevant information about your system. I would recommend Power Production Management.
Description of Work: I wrote the same comment on Google, but I'm adding it here as well. When the solar coop launched in Alachua County, I jumped at the chance to go solar. I guess my eagerness showed, because my install was the first one of the Alachua County Solar coop. As I write this, my system has been in operation for about 10 days, so far everything is working as expected. My system looks great on the roof! It consists of 6.867KW worth of Sunpower panels installed on my roof facing southeast, with an expected average production of 800-900KWH per month, enough to hopefully cover 100% of my electric bill. I chose to go for a DC system with SMA grid tied inverters to take advantage of the Secure Power Supply offered by SMA inverters that lets you use your panels to power critical loads when the grid is down and the sun is shining.

Very well. I was satisfied with the work done. We did have a delay generated by my asking for additional work, but not unreasonable. Extra work done for time and materials at a fair price. The panels are from a well respected manufacturer and the monitoring software allows me to follow solar production. Have noticed a reduction in my monthly bill already.
Description of Work: Installation of solar panels for home use. Added additional electric panels and installed some new wiring. Coordinated with my electric supplier to install "net meter" to monitor solar return to the grid.

Excellent support from start to finish. They called me to notify me of an opportunity on the solar FIT program. Helped me with all the paperwork, Quoted promptly & the installation was excellent. Their installer Ryan was extremely knowledgeable & seems to work 25hrs each day. He was always on the ball & the system is up & running & working perfectly. I will be using them again in the future & recommend them to others considering installing solar panels.
