The program is great and the installers were nothing short of professional, the entire process was explained in great detail and the execution was flawless.  Highly recommend all to reach out and see where they can save on their electricity output especially during these times.

Excited to finally have solar.   Karen Gable and her team were amazing throughout the whole process.  They were available every time we had questions and very supportive.  If you're looking for solar give them a call.

My experience with Energy Select was excellent from start to finish.

Karen (sales) was engaging and answered all my question and concerns and provided multiple quotes for different configurations/options at my request.

The installation crew (Carlos and 2 others) were professional and polite and did quality work.  They corrected a minor workmanship issue I had noticed quickly, properly, and without complaint.  The electrician did a great job on the installation as well.  He was precise with the new panel installation inside my finished basement, that I didn't have to do any drywall work or painting after he was done!

Makayla (customer interface during the process) answered all of my emails in a timely manner. I also received responses from the engineers/project managers in a timely manner.  (Usually within the day).

The installed system is a grid tied system with Enphase IQ8+ microinverters for each panel, and an Enphase IQ5 Combinder box with integrated Enphase IQ Gateway.

The company has a documented process with a project tracking web portal and short process explanation videos as the project progresses.

The company handles as much as the permit and permission to operate paperwork as they can.  The company will also set you up with an SREC broker, if you don't want to find your own broker, or sell your SRECs on the market yourself.

I think the only things they missed covering with me before contract signing was that they weren't installing consumption metering (production metering is installed), and that "solar backup" (micro grid forming without batteries when the main grid goes down) was a possible option.

The Energy Select team was wonderful to work with. They assisted with every step of the process and answered all of my questions along the way. The installation was completed with care, and the installation team was friendly and professional. I highly recommend Energy Select if you are considering solar.

From the initial consultation to the final install, inspections, and commissioning it has been a pleasure to work with everyone that I've interfaced with at Energy Select.  Everyone has been very friendly, quick to respond to questions and very professional in every way.  I'm very happy with the service and system that I've received and would highly recommend this local St. Mary's County company to anyone looking for anything from a consultation to a complete installation of a Solar Array.

After being told that I could not get solar on my home and getting it installed has been a lengthy process. Karen Gable and her team did and outstanding job aiding us through the solar installation process. Karen was always avaliable and very attentive to our needs. If you are looking for a solar company that is hands-on, supportive, and professional,  Energy Select is the Solar Company for you.

If you are considering Solar, this is THE WAY to go. I'm not even exaggerating. It all started for me with being broached by another solar panel company that goes around knocking on peoples door trying to sell them on a system. It peaked my interest and I started doing some serious homework and looking at other options to make sure I was getting the best deal. That's what brought me to Energy Select and it was the best thing to happen to me in my "going solar" decision. Karen provided amazing customer service and my wife and I felt like she was truly interested in helping us out and selling us the right product. The panels are made in the U.S., which was a HUGE plus for us and their install team was considerate, personable, and professional. Once our system came online, it only took a couple months (because we started in the winter) before we eliminated our electric bill. Going solar is a great decision but a huge part of that is going with the right company. This is the right company.

President Horstkamp,
This is a very belated thank you from my husband and myself to you for your amazing company, Energy Select. From our very first interaction with Karen Gable it has been easy, informative, and , yes, even an enjoyable experience. I am especially thankful for the team in the office. Karen and Tamika Duncan were primarily who dealt with our calls and PROMPTLY answered any emails. The prompt replies don’t usually happen with so many other companies. It really makes a difference and great impression when it is handled as your team did.

Next we met the wonderful Zach Schoonover. I understand he is no longer with your company, if you have any way to forward this on to him I would appreciate it so much. He was friendly (what a great smile!), knowledgable, and my husband is still drooling over his drone! Again…he came in, got to work, and answered our many questions and then told us what would be up next before he left. Wherever he is now working, they have a grade A employee in Zach. We met Christian Peck next (congratulations Christian on your promotion!)…again….he arrived on time, did what he needed to do, answered more questions, LISTENED to what we had to say, and filled us in on what would happen next before he left. I can’t tell you how much getting even a hint of the timetable means to a customer.

Enter THE TEAM….Carlos Campion, Rohan Douglas, Davione Mason, Ryan Meyer, and, Magic Mike Casper (Magic Mike not for his dancing skills, but for his electrician skills !), and Nick Cameron. Lovely crew….again great smiles, knowledgeable and definitely skilled in what they did. You honestly could not ask for more!

So we are up and running and soaking up our own energy source here in Hollywood and we thank you and your entire wonderful company for making that happen. Please feel free to send anyone our info if they want to talk about our experience.

Keep up the good work. The planet needs you!
Sue

Karen was a pleasure to work with and made sure all my questions were answered. That wasn't always easy being I am new to solar and had several of them. Start to finish was about 5 months. The installers were great, showed up on time, and made themselves available to discuss anything related to that days work. Thank you guys!
