Services
Freedom Solar customers see a dramatic reduction in their utility bills after solar panels are installed. Studies have shown an increase in resale value of 10-15% above similar homes without solar. With Freedom solar you get more! We care about you and your home. We work hard to make sure we are adding to the beauty of your home, while a getting the best configuration for producing power.
With Freedom Solar you will meet a solar consultant at your home who is much more than a salesperson. Your consultant will listen to your cost reduction goals, ask about your energy usage and history, walk your roof, and address all your questions. Your solar investment will be a part of your home's value for 25 years or more and we believe this value is only enhanced by your input.
High efficiency solar panels from San Jose-based SunPower are engineered and assembled in North America and produce the most solar energy in an available space. The output per panel can be over 30% greater with a high efficiency model than a conventional one. Additional efficiency results from application of Anti-Reflective Coating to panel glass.
Freedom Solar is proud to partner with CaliforniaFIRST and the HERO Program to offer Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing to Bay Area Homes and Businesses in participating cities and counties. Through this program, the homeowner pays off the solar installation as a small increase to the property taxes spread over many years.
The most important benefit for almost every homeowner is the reduction in utility bills. By replacing expensive energy from your utility with solar energy generated from your home (and even selling back the excess) you are preparing for greater energy independence and saving money simultaneously.

I was building a new house, and want to have all conduit hidden in the wall and ceiling. Mark and Rich in Freedom Solar are great to work with; their work in the customization is first rate, and the result is fantastic, all the wire/conduit are hidden as designed, and installation is very clean. I will use them again if I have another project

Wanted to install solar panels for the new roof, so I talked to a number of different installers about different options, and ended up choosing to go with the SunPower solution and Freedom Solar over another local installer also offering the SunPower product. Decided to go with Freedom Solar because of how knowledgeable, professional and patient Rich Moore was in his dealing with me. He took the time to explain different options to me, why he would prioritize certain roof locations over others, what the whole process would be like, and he even took the time to provide me some advice on issues I

I recently had an issue with my SunPower Solar monitoring. I was frustrated with the response I had received from SunPower. I called Stefan at Freedom Solar for help. Stefan listened to my complaints, gave me his recommendations, followed through with assisting me to remedy the problem. Stefan thinks outside the box, which can be very useful. Throughout the process, I felt comfortable that Stefan was available to assist me. He is very helpful with Solar installation and issues. While I am disappointed with SunPower's lack of concern and assistance with the issue, I am extremely satisfied

Rich and his team at Freedom Solar did a great job on our solar panel project from the initial design, installation and follow up. He explained everything about the system, installation trade-offs, and future expansion capability versus other systems. A big concern to my wife and I was if we would purchase an electric vehicle in the future and have higher electrical demands, how difficult and costly would it be to expand the number of panels. The system we purchased from him was much more adaptable to future growth, higher quality, and more efficient than other systems we looked into from other

My very first EV outlet install and it was an outstanding experience! From my initial conversation with Rich to project completion I could not have asked for a better partner. Like most folks, I did extensive research speaking with several different service providers and after several different quotes, decided on Freedom Solar. Even though Rich's schedule was filled up for a couple of months, he was able to squeeze me in and in addition to his team showing up early they were also done with the install within less than a couple of hours and then another 5 minutes or so to make sure everything

Picking a solar company is a challenging task. Having a metal "Cal-Pac" style roof added to it. Walking on them wrong can create dents, and it being raised above the asphalt roof by inches required unique mounting bracketry. I envisioned big holes with a lot of silicon piled around them, and unattractive. I queried many companies but most didn't do metal roofs. I finally contacted Cal-Pac Roofing for their recommendations and they gave me two. One couldn't respond for weeks. Fortunately I called Rich Moore, the owner of Freedom Solar and he quickly had Clayton Coates

I recently had my roof replaced that older, but still functional, solar panels installed (54 of them!). I thought I'd take the opportunity to install some additional panels and decided on Freedom Solar.
I couldn't be happier. Clayton was great to work with regarding the quoting process and very responsive to questions and/or requested changes that I had. Once we got into contract, Michael jumped in and started working with my roofing contractor to coordinate the timing of the removal of my old system. This was done with minimal effort on my part and the panels were stored neatly away

Horrible company. They don't stand by what the guarantee. My roof is supposed to be guaranteed for 10 years against any damage caused by the panels and conveniently they say it's not caused by the panels but yet my roof was fine before the panels went up. Do not let this company come close to your roof

Best products and service ever! Rich Moore, there is a saint with his patience in answering my many questions. They installed a SunPower system in my home in Los Altos a few years ago and I have been super happy. I love they do the monitoring and even let me know when the connection is not working and I need to reboot the modem. Rich has very strong integrity and is true to his word in delivering. I have not had any issues and it seems he sized the system perfectly for me, even anticipating increased demands as I added A/C and electric car charger.
Rich has also been very kind in continuing

Freedom Solar installed SunPower solar panels at our home about 4mos ago. They have done an outstanding job for us with both the quality of their work as well as the service they provided throughout the whole process, including followup post installation. I couldn't be happier with my solar panels. They genuinely have the customer's best interest in mind, and they take great pride in their work. I had obtained three quotes for this job and Freedom Solar's pricing was competitive. Freedom Solar has my highest recommendation!

Freedom Solar installed our system about 6 months ago. We had a long sales cycle as I talked to several firms and had many questions about size, location, and efficiency. Freedom Solar was recommended by a friend who we trust and had a positive experience with Freedom Solar.
Freedom Solar helped us design and manage the entire project, including the City with permits, implementation, and final setup. The process was flawless and very fast.
I would strongly recommendation. As I met and had proposals from the 'Big Companies', I believe you will not find anyone out there that is more
