With today's tested, reliable and long-lasting solar panels combined with latest technology optimizers and inverters, you can make an immediate difference by harnessing the sun's power turning it into electricity to run your home or business.

We will email you a customized Preliminary Estimate using Aurora Solar Remote Software (requiring no onsite visit) so you can begin seeing what solar can do for you and what it will cost.
Until the end of 2023, a federal income tax credit is available for 26% of the total cost of purchase and installation (including sales tax) of a solar photovoltaic system provided the solar system owner has sufficient tax liability. This tax credit is a dollar-for-dollar reduction in taxes owed and can be used by either individuals or businesses.

Just had our Tesla solar panels and Powerwall inspected; the inspector was very, very impressed with the quality of work. I told him about Jason L. (team lead on our project) and his care/attention to detail every step of the way.
NW Electric & Solar's team arrived to the minute daily. They really moved as they attacked the project and progressed steadily, even to the untrained eye. They always had time to answer questions or explain things as they proceeded. I wish all local contractors had their level of skill and attention. Daily cleanup was so fastidious that they left no evidence

The owner, Jeff, is amazing! He took my phone call while he was off site, in the middle of a job, and he offered to help me with a technical issue when I was ready...
As it happened, I wasn't finally ready until Saturday came around, so I reached out to him, not expecting follow up from him until Monday.
Instead, not only did Jeff follow up with me within minutes on a Saturday, but he followed up again after that to be sure I had ordered the correct electrical adapter from Tesla so I would be good to go and ready to start charging when our Tesla arrives.
Thank you, Jeff! You rock, sir

Highly recommend this company for your solar needs! The initial call was great with no pressure to purchase. An initial quote is provided by using Google images of your house and your electric bill from the kWh usage. They outline the system and panel options you have in an easy to read format. From there the project manager comes out (wearing a mask) to walk through specifics of the project and he answered my questions. They also take drone photos of your home to ensure the system geometry is accurate. We scheduled a day for the install and the team came out and knocked it out in 8 hours

Northwest Electric and Solar responded quickly to my inquiry regarding a Tesla wall charger installation. The communication with their office staff from the start to the finish, including the online estimate answered every question that I had. The electrician showed up on time and did an outstanding job! I am pleased with the results and would recommend these guys to anyone that needs to have a Tesla wall charger installed.

Very solid team. I was able to describe the job (ev charger install) with a few pictures & an email. They make a bid & I gave a deposit over the phone. We set up an install time. They confirmed the day before- which was a Sunday. It was a tricky install- wiring through a hole in the concrete floor but they got the job done on schedule & budget. Nothing but goodness. Thanks James.

This company had the worst response time ever! They were there for the first tear-up and pre-wiring, but did not have a large enough crew to respond to follow-up issues. They lost whole electrical runs and later I had to hire someone else to install new lines. They also over-charged me several times; I was always present, so I knew how "long" they were there on site. Two minutes became a 2-hour billing, and I was billed for days they were not even on site. Very shady and inept company.

We recently had a 10 kW system installed on our house and these guys made it so easy. I got bids from 4 different companies, all were very professional and great to interact with. NW Electric and Solar was the 4th that I spoke with, and they were so responsive and great at explaining everything. I didn't really need the solar education by the time that I spoke to them, and they honored that by jumping straight to the point. I emailed a picture of my electrical panel, they came by and did a quick light read on our roof and sent me a proposal in the same day. They were more competitive than

In response to the comment--in addition to investigating the burning smell we asked for a quote to install bathroom fans. Never heard a response and my husband was following up before seeing the charge for this visit.
Similar to not knowing what the charge was for the visit (until we noticed it on our credit card statement a week ago) we never did get the quote.
Needless to say not interested in contacting this place again.

Derek and Ian are the best! Great follow up, quick response. I work for a Mechanical Contractor in Seattle that is one of the largest on the west coast, so I know the industry very well. These guys know their stuff and are great! I contracted them to install a 9.9 KW solar system and could not be happier. They know more about Solar then some of the State of Washington Electrical inspectors do. Trust me, these people will do you right and will make you happy with the work they do. Great job! -Eric
