iSolar Celebrates Two Years of Successful Partnership with Solar United Neighbors


Since 2022, iSolar has been a proud partner with Solar United Neighbors helping Minnesotans go solar. For those of you who don’t know, Solar United Neighbors, or SUN, is a cooperative of community members whose mission is: “Building a new energy system with rooftop solar at the cornerstone. We help people go solar, join together, and fight for their energy rights.”

At iSolar, we believe that all Minnesotans should have the ability to produce their own energy. Sound similar? We think so. In the past two and half years, iSolar has been a proud supporter of SUN cooperative members and worked closely with SUN staff to provide solar energy to as many customers as we can.

Below are a few SUN members we have worked with and what they had to say about the partnership, our work, and their solar project.      


Ray Valley gave us five stars and said, “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 wasn’t 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 I’ll take any day!”

 

Five star reviewer Matt Anderson said, “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.”

 

Chris Davidson, a SUN co-op member, gave iSolar five stars and said, “Very nice people, professional, timely responses. Good experience top to bottom.”

 

Five star reviewer Tiffanie Connelly was a member of Solar United Neighbors and said, “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.”

 

Solar United Neighbor member Kevin Barnes gave iSolar five stars and said, “We worked with the team at iSolar to add 13 additional panels to our system this summer. We’re so grateful for Ryan and team’s 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.”
