My experience was with Chet Stromberg,
He was completely honest and straightforward, rarely do I come across someone as stand up as he is. Very intelligent and beyond kind and helpful. My home ended up not being in his service area and after finding that out he still stayed on the phone with me for 15 minutes to help expedite my shopping process for tesla powerwalls for my house. Who does that!? I’d be hard pressed to believe that anyone who would call this company could be anything but happy.

American Solar (aka Pacific Green Energy) were the victims of a fraudulent telemarketing scam. They have never have and never will do any outbound calling because they don't need to do it. They are a legitimate Bay Area family business that does almost exclusively referral-based business. They work directly with contractors and well as homeowners on large residential projects. Give them a call and give them a chance for your renewable energy business! They do great work with integrity and are conscious community members.

We recently had solar installed on our home, and selected Pacific Green Energy after doing some research on both product and service.
Pacific Green Energy exceeded all of our expectations - from the initial assessment to the selection and installation, everything was done with the highest quality and stewardship. Darren and team were always there to answer questions, responsive to our needs, and continue to be helpful with ongoing advice.
Unequivocal five stars - the best solar installer out there!

We added solar to our house in hopes of reducing our high energy costs and to offset the addition of an electric car. American solar provided excellent, timely, knowledgable customer service. The walked us thru the options, helped us assess our usage and needs, and installed our system quickly and efficiently. They handle all the PG&E details and provide the simple paperwork needed for tax credits, etc. They also provided frequent follow up in the months after install to ensure the system was working as expected and to review new energy bills. It was a simple process and we are seeing the benefit

We had American Solar install 32 panels on our Mill Valley roof 1 1/2 years ago. Within one year, we were producing exactly the amount of power they had predicted when PG & E trued our account. Our ROI will be complete in 5 years, just as they projected. We waited to do this review until we knew the system actually accomplished the projected power bill savings.
We had researched the field carefully and had three competitive bids. They were fair in price, delivered on all their installation and timing promises, and the system has produced enough power to eliminate our electric bills with the

I had a PV solar system that was installed about 10 years ago. The panels were failing as was the the original installer. The solar panel company offered to buy back my panels and I had the opportunity to research and select a new provider. It is a very competitive field and after many interviews I selected American Solar. I was so glad that I did. They were very sensitive to my needs and extremely knowledgeable about the industry. The service was superb. They were a pleasure to work with and I would do it again in a minute. Good thing I won't have to do anything for many years as this system
