About Us

Resident Solar Power exists to cut through the noise in the solar industry. If you’ve ever tried researching residential solar installers online, you know what we mean – half the information is sales pitches, the other half is so technical it’s basically useless for regular homeowners.

We’re a team of solar enthusiasts and researchers who think going solar shouldn’t be this complicated.

Our Mission

We're here to give you the information you need to make good decisions about solar energy. Not sales pitches. Not overwhelming technical specs. Just honest, practical guidance.
Solar should be accessible to everyone, not just people who can afford to take risks on unproven installers or who have time to become amateur solar experts. That's why we created this platform - to provide detailed, up-to-date analysis of residential solar installers operating across the United States.
We review and rate major residential solar companies, digging into their track records, certifications, customer feedback, and actual performance. We don't take money from installers for better rankings. We don't let companies edit their reviews. When an installer does solid work, we highlight it. When there are red flags, we point them out. Our only goal is helping you find the best solar solution for your specific situation, based on unbiased information you can actually trust.

Expertise in Solar Energy

Our team includes people who've analyzed energy policy and spent years researching installers. We're not just aggregating Google results. When we write about solar, it's based on real experience, not a quick Wikipedia skim.

Unbiased Reviews

We don't get paid by installers to rank them higher. We don't accept money for positive reviews. If a company is great, we say so. If they're problematic, we say that too. Our income doesn't depend on making any specific installer look good, which means we can actually be honest about what we find.

Comprehensive Resources

We cover everything from "what the heck is a kilowatt-hour" to "how to read a solar contract without a law degree." Panel types, inverter options, financing structures, local incentives, installer red flags - it's all here. Whether you're just starting to think about a home solar system or you're ready to sign a contract, we've got the information you need at that stage.

Customized Recommendations

A great residential solar installer in California might not even operate in Texas. State incentives vary wildly. That's why our recommendations are location-specific - we show you residential solar installers who actually work in your area, explain the incentives available in your state, and account for local factors that affect your solar setup. Because generic national recommendations are basically useless when you're trying to make a real decision.

Our Services

At Resident Solar Power, our goal is to be your go-to source for all things solar. Here's how we make it happen

We Keep Our Installer Lists Actually Current

You know how annoying it is to find a "best of" list from three years ago? Yeah, we hate that too. We're constantly refreshing our residential solar installer lists - adding new companies that are crushing it, removing ones that aren't, updating the ones that have changed. States, cities, whatever. The goal is simple: when you look at our lists, you're seeing who's actually reliable right now.

Real Reviews, Not Fluff Pieces

Most residential solar installation reviews online are either paid placements or just star ratings with zero context. Ours aren't. We dig into the stuff that actually affects your experience - installation quality, whether they stick to timelines, how they handle problems (because problems happen), and if their pricing makes sense. If an installer has issues, we say so. If they're great, we say that too. It's really that straightforward.

Solar Energy Without the Headache

Solar can get confusing really fast - all the technical terms, the financial math, the constantly changing incentives. It's a lot. We write articles and guides that cut through that noise and explain things in plain English. Think of it like having a knowledgeable friend walk you through it over lunch. Basic concepts? Covered. Advanced tech? We've got that too. All explained without making you feel like you need an engineering degree.

Get a Solar Quote That's Actually About You

Your situation isn't the same as your neighbor's. Different roof, different energy bills, different budget, different priorities. So why would a one-size-fits-all solar quote make any sense? We provide personalized residential solar quotes that actually reflect your specific situation - what you need, what you can afford, and what makes sense for your home.

Our Team

A mix of residential solar industry veterans, researchers, and writers who got tired of watching the solar buying process be so unnecessarily complicated. We don't get kickbacks from installers. We just tell you what we've learned from years of evaluating companies and helping homeowners navigate this stuff.
