    I was considering putting up solar panels on our house. I called three companies in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area and asked them to come to our home to discuss the possibility of installing panels. Two of the three responded to my request. I was extremely impressed with iSolar’s presentation. They were concise, straight forward and eager to be of service. Comparing the two presentations, iSolar was head and shoulders above the other organization. They were clear about the timeline for installation, various products that were available and pricing. It was obvious that they had access to the best products. They also assisted me with the paperwork required by the energy company and followed up to ensure install approval was on track.The iSolar team covered all aspects of the sale and installation of the system, ensuring that we were always kept informed. I can’t say enough good about their professionalism in all aspects of our solar installation and follow up. Our system has been operating flawlessly.You won’t go wrong with iSolar!

    I participated in a Solar United Neighbors group that chose iSolar as their installer. Ryan from iSolar was great to work with. He answered all my questions thoroughly before and after installation. A few months after the papers were signed, the panels were installed and connected to the grid. The building inspector found one little thing to improve. But iSolar fixed that within a few days and the panels have performed great for 1.5 years now. I would recommend iSolar to anyone.

    Hello, my name is Yeni. I recently had the opportunity to work with iSolar and would rate them 5 stars for their outstanding communication, professionalism, and attention to detail. Every person I interacted with was kind and incredibly helpful. One of the most convenient aspects was that they managed the entire process—I simply provided the necessary documents, and they took care of the rest. While Xcel Energy’s guidelines can be strict regarding timing, iSolar’s team handled everything smoothly, making the experience easy. If you’re considering going solar, they’re the company to hire!

    ISolar was great to work with, and they delivered a high-quality installation for a competitive price. They were always very professional, and despite several delays in the project on my end they never made me feel rushed. I have peace of mind knowing that my solar panel installation is backed by a third-party 30 year warranty. I highly recommend iSolar, and I wouldnt change anything if I had to do it all over again (except of course for getting my ducks in a row faster).

    Update as of December 2023: I have received this years final numbers and am happy to report that all of my electricity consumption has been covered by solar power. This includes the energy required to power my two Bolt EVs. I will also receive an $800 check for the surplus electricity generated by the iSolar panels. At this point, I am only five years away from ultimately paying off the cost of the solar panels and earning a profit from the electricity they produce. Furthermore, I have already covered the negative environmental impact of installing the panels. It may seem costly initially, but its worth the investment if you can afford it. I received my federal rebate and got a substantial amount of money back with my 2022 tax return. Dakota Electrics off-peak EV charging is a crucial factor in saving money. It only costs me around $1.50 in electricity to travel 100 miles, and I always start my day with a full tank of electricity. It takes me just 5 seconds to plug in at night, and I dont have to stand outside in the cold. Feel free to get my address from iSolar if you would like to take a look at my set-up in the south metro area of the Twin Cities.Update July 2023:You get what you pay for. iSolar is the best solar company in Minnesota for a reason. Dont let the big companies fool with their fancy publications. This local Twin Cities company should not be overlooked One year after the install, I am able to provide all my electric cost needs and get a check from Dakota electric for over $600. Yes, the electric company paid me. If you remove my Dakota rebate, I still made almost $100. Summary: The cost for electricity in my house and 15,000 miles on the electric car was covered by the solar panels. Thanks to the EV storage rate, I am able to save tons of money each year. The cost of the solar panels will pay for itself in about 6 more years. Keep in mind the savings is a bonus. I wanted solar for the environmental benefits.Original review from 2022: Big company results with a small town feel. I could not be happier with iSolar. They were the only company willing to move my vents and pipes on my south-facing roof to the north side, resulting in two extra panels. 22 panels total. Justin was a great salesperson who answered all my calls immediately, unlike other companies that forced me to leave a message or make an appointment. They have a family feel to them as they work. They pull together when needed and make sure the customer is happy. Justin, the salesperson, was also one who helped with the installation. Your salesperson is also one of the installers. Yes, everyone in the company is hands-on and knows what they are doing. When there are structural needs, they call in Three Rivers Contracting to help. Larry, from Three Rivers, made sure everything looked fantastic. In fact, I will have my shed in my backyard reconstructed using Three Rivers next summer.A 30-year warranty is what sold me. A third party backs it up, so if iSolar goes out of business, you are still covered.They have competitive pricing; I had other companies with lower quotes but picked iSolar because of their excellent customer service and quality work.

    I got about 4 bids on solar panels and ended up going with iSolar after contacting their provided references. The solar insure package thats included definitely sweetened the deal, but their presentation was much better than some of the other bigger guys in the area. They listened to me wanting to put panels on my outbuilding, and actually used their software to show me specific spots on my roof and how everything would shake out.They also were the only ones that actually looked at my property and chose the panel location we ended up going with, and so far theyre far out producing expectations. Very happy with the service Ive gotten from them and would recommend them for sure.

    Andrew and team were the best to work with. Amidst the cheap corporations with sub-par contracting, iSolar are a small group of professionals who rely on quality and word-of-mouth. They are the real deal, work with them!I’ve had my panels for 4 months and no leaks, no breaks, and great production.

  • Review 8 (2023-02-16 - Rating: 5)

    I highly recommend doing your solar project with iSolar. We had a rather large project done on our house. The end result was fantastic. Our project took longer than expected but that was due to Excel Energy. I solar stayed on top of them to keep the project moving along. Once we finally got the approval from Excel Energy, the actual installation only took 2 days. I had a ton of questions along the way and Ryan, and the team from iSolar always took the time to answer them all. I did a lot of research on solar install companies prior to picking iSolar, and iSolar has the best warranty in the business and all the right Hardware that I was looking for. Thank you again iSolar.

    10stars!!I am a Sr. Project Manager for Patriot Homes, LLC (a general contractor) The solar panels of a customer of mine needed to be removed and reinstalled to facilitate a roof replacement. The original installer had gone out of business, so I contacted Isolar for a bid that I was needing to submit for approval to their insurance carrier prior to our work being done. I also reached out to every single company locally for additional bids and soon found out that half are no longer in business and the other half do not have any one available to speak with when calling and/or dont respond to any attempted communications. Isolar quickly provided me with their estimate and scheduled the removal of the panels and, shortly after our install, they were back in to reattach the system. My homeowner did not have access to his monitoring system as it was never set up during the original install and Isolar was able to work around this even though it obviously made their job more difficult. There was a small issue located by the electric company with the system not producing and Isolar was out almost immediately diagnose the issue and even went so far as to calculate the potential loss to my homeowner ($55) for reimbursement. Without even being asked they are mailing him a check with an additional $20 for the very minor inconvenience caused to the homeowner. If google reviews allowed more stars they would get them from me. As a general contractor there are a lot of moving parts in any project and many subcontractors being coordinated. No one is perfect and work doesnt always go how you hope through all parts of a project, but Isolar is definitely at the top of my list of contractors I have worked with, and I was completely satisfied from start to finish. They are quick, efficient, responsive, punctual, and provided amazing customer service. Dan, Ian, Jason, Ryan, and Michael are a great team and very obviously work together to provide this awesome experience to their customers. They were all a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend using them!!

    Our roof was severely damaged by the recent hailstorm and required replacement. The roofing company needed to have our solar system taken off and put back on so that they could complete the roofing process, but the company that installed our panels was months out in terms of lead time. iSolar to the rescue!Ben, Ryan, and Jason handled the whole thing from start to finish, and were even able to solve some of the nagging problems we had with the system before the roofing project. I cannot recommend these guys strongly enough.iSolar is Awesome!

    Jon and everyone over at ISolar have been awesome to work with on getting my panels installed and getting me through the different programs offered to me. Jon also knew I needed a new roof from hail damage and informed me of the awesome team at there sibling company Three Rivers Contracting! Everything has gone awesome working with everyone

  • Review 12 (2023-08-08 - Rating: 5)

    The staff at iSolar was really easy to work with. They were very honest and quick in the process. The install actually happened ahead of schedule. The pricing was very competitive and they use the best technology available. I would definitely recommend.

  • Review 13 (2022-06-24 - Rating: 5)

    The whole crew at iSolar did a great job installing my 7.5Kw system. They were fast, clean, professional and very reasonably priced! Thanks guys for your great work!

  • Review 14 (2023-09-11 - Rating: 5)

    Dan and Ryan and have been very easy to work with. We were looking for a company to detach and reattach our panels during a roof replacement project. Other companies required that the panels be offline for up to a month, and would take weeks to get on their schedule. iSolar was very flexible and coordinated with the roofing contractor to have crews out so that downtime was less than a week. Would highly recommend them.

  • Review 15 (2021-12-28 - Rating: 5)

    A well deserved review. I was very pleased working with Isolar. Other than signatures the Isoalr team took care of every step of the process from detailed design to permitting, to installation and connection. They were attentive to keeping me updated on every step of the process and educating me along the way. We did run into two issues the first was a major delay of processing on Excel energies side. Isolar worked with Excel on my behalf and kept me updated on the progress. The second was a city ordinance that came up regarding needing to notify neighboring properties and the Isolar team took care of that whole process as well. I was impressed with the professionalism of the installation and the attention to details. Thank you Isolar team.

  • Review 16 (2023-05-02 - Rating: 5)

    5 STARS!!!!! I didn’t buy my solar installation from iSolar, I called them for help with an inverter problem. I had contacted several other solar companies who took days to call me, iSolar called back within minutes. They were polite and prompt as we worked out a service time and date that worked for me. Their service person arrived ready to work and on time. They were fast, accurate, competent, polite, and thorough at getting my system up and running. If I ever add onto my system or if I need service they will be the first and only company I will consider.

  • Review 17 (2023-07-27 - Rating: 5)

    The team at iSolar is warm and professional. They installed solar panels on my house 3 years ago and everything is still working great now. Theyve been responsive and helpful when Ive had questions. They explain everything thoroughly and respectfully. If you are at the point where you are choosing a solar company, or even just want more information about your options, I recommend iSolar.

  • Review 18 (2023-10-06 - Rating: 5)

    We worked with the team at ISolar to add 13 additional panels to our system this summer. Were so grateful for Ryan and teams consistent response, competitive pricing and true professionalism. Our install was challenging in some ways in pairing the new array with the original 12 panel array along with an existing Tesla Powerwall, but they made it happen. Thank you ISolar for a job well done! Also, thanks go to Solar United Neighbors for connecting us to ISolar.

    We would highly recommend iSolar for your electrical needs. Mike did a fantastic job and is extremely knowledgeable and professional . He did a great job in knowing our needs and how to structure the project. Very diligent and meticulous.Steve and Donna Cavalluzzi

  • Review 20 (2023-02-14 - Rating: 5)

    I was introduced to iSolar because they were the preferred provider of the local Solar United Neighbors co-op. That they were chosen by the local solar co-op is a good recommendation in itself. And my experience with iSolar was uniformly good — they were always friendly, responsive, and helpful when I had questions about their proposal and the installation. Unfortunately my solar project stalled out at the permitting stage because of difficulties with Xcel Energy’s system,, but I wouldn’t hesitate to use iSolar when I am eventually able to put up solar panels on my home.

  • Review 21 (2022-02-24 - Rating: 5)

    ISolar installed our panels 10 months ago & we have had nothing but good experiences with them. I have emailed a few times with questions & always received a quick, honest, logical, and respectful response.The installers were quick, kind, and clean. I highly recommend iSolar.

  • Review 22 (2023-11-08 - Rating: 5)

    They won the bid for our solar coop participants. The detailed financial forecast model they ran for us gave us peace of mind about the investment. It showed that it wasnt their first rodeo and the install went pretty smooth. They were very responsive about questions and concerns I had and got the necessary permits all lined up. After some production and scheduling delays (which I understand), it appears our array actually overproduced this summer compared to predictions, which Ill take any day!

  • Review 23 (2021-12-12 - Rating: 5)

    Going solar was something I always wanted to do and iSolar made it a wonderful experience. I met with several solar providers but iSolar offered the best price. At no time in the process did I feel like I was pressured to purchase or locked into an agreement. That was very important to me. My sales rep., Justin, answered all my questions and concerns. He responded promptly to my emails, even at odd times of the day. I was kept informed of the process with Xcel Energy. Ryan explained the process clearly from application and to installations. He guided me through the software used to monitor my power generation. Once approved, the handover to the installers was smooth. They were on time and cleaned up once they were done. Excellent job!

  • Review 24 (2023-03-06 - Rating: 5)

    Dan and Daniel have been very helpful fixing the issues we were having with our solar panel system. It had been installed by another company (Moxie and Wolf River) and this company refused to help us with the production issues our micro-inverters were reporting. We were referred to iSolar and they fixed the problem quickly and efficiently. iSolar will now be the company we go to for our Solar Panel systems needs. Thank you iSolar LLC !

    I Solar is a credible company that stands by the work. We ran into an issue where the solar company I hired closed their doors and left us with a partially working system Ryan with I Solar offered to help us finish it and followed through on meeting with me. He made every effort to put us at ease and he did. I highly recommend ISolar for all aspects of solar work being needed.

  • Review 27 (2022-08-16 - Rating: 5)

    After spending a lot of time researching and getting quotes from several companies, we chose iSolar to install our solar panel array. Their customer service and willingness to educate and explain without being pushy and sales oriented was head and shoulders above any of the other companies with whom I spoke. They were always available to answer any questions I had and were pleasant and amazingly efficient during the installation. I highly recommend that you work with them if you are looking to get your own solar panels!

  • Review 28 (2023-08-01 - Rating: 5)

    Isolar did a great job of figuring out how much solar panels we needed to get the right performance out of our panels and placement on the garage. Only issue was have to take out a $30,000 loan so you have to be in it for the long term to get any financial gain from it. Like to help get new energy source going away from coal and oil. Came out to $190 a month for loan which may be about what our bill would be per month for electric. Summer we get credit since solar produces enough sunlight and winter we pay a little since we don’t see as much sun then. We did receive a tax break of about $8000 the year after we installed. If gas prices keep rising we will definitely be glad we did it.

  • Review 29 (2024-06-20 - Rating: 5)

    Could not be happier with this service. Phil spent the time trouble shooting our electrical problem. Instead of replacing the entire system, as was recommended by other companies, the repair ended up being 1/10 of the cost.

  • Review 30 (2024-12-19 - Rating: 5)

    Like many, I had been looking at solar for a number of years, but didnt take the plunge until this year. I used online tools to get various quotes. Some were good others not so much. I was given iSolars number from a neighbor who had had iSolar install their system and they had a great experience. Hence, I decided to go with iSolar and am very glad I did. The quote was competitive and the process was not only flawless but was very accelerated from original expectations (just over 2 months from first contact to installation to making money!). Everything was done for me. All I had to do was to sign up with iSolar. Im looking forward to washing away my electricity bills for the next 30 years and more thanks to the entire iSolar team.

  • Review 31 (2021-02-24 - Rating: 5)

    From the first meeting to installation and follow-up, our experience with the iSolar team was fantastic. The installers were polite and respectful. They clearly knew what they were doing. We were given updates and reminders as the process moved forward. Everything was up and running as they had described. We couldn’t be happier.

  • Review 32 (2020-08-20 - Rating: 5)

    Locally owned MN company. If you have equity in your home and qualify for a home equity loan or a solar loan with the interest rates what they currently are, the price point makes sense. In many cases a 20 year solar loan/home equity loan payment can end up being the same or less than what your normal monthly bill from the electric company would be. Taking into account the solar incentives from your local electric company and the Feds can turn it into a no-brainer. Just finished the process and it went very smooth. The guys from iSolar were great to work with! I now have an app on my iPhone (totally geeking-out) that tracks how many kilowatt-hours of electricity I am producing on a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly and lifetime basis. I love sunny days even more now! Oh, and it is great for the environment! Now thinking about getting an electric car to reduce my carbon footprint even more. Make the electric bill and the gas bills for the car go away or at least be significantly reduced.

    ISolar installed panels on our house and garage to maximize our solar productivity. They were polite and professional and kept us informed of every step along the way.

    We had a fantastic experience with iSolar - from the sales process through the interconnection, they handled everything quickly and professionally. The process was extremely smooth and went much more quickly than I expected after working in the industry and hearing how slow things can move with utilities. Would highly recommend them for any solar project and will use them again if we ever add storage to our system.
