Write a ReviewAfter my solar installation company went out of business I needed some help replacing a failed microinverter. I contacted several companies and selected Stellar based on their fixed cost for a service call to replace the failed unit. I worked with Tiani at the office to schedule my appointment and she was very responsive. Andy arrived at the scheduled time, went over everything with me and had the repair completed in a timely fashion. I'll be using Stellar Solar for my service needs going forward and would recommend them to anyone looking for a solar company.
Both team leads, Eduardo on roof and Luis on battery, were professional and courteous. The install was smooth and completed on schedule. The work site was kept clean and tidy.
I recently had Stellar Solar install two 10KW Enphase batteries to upgrade my existing system—a complex setup that combines an older grid-tie solar array with Enphase micro-inverters. After calling six different companies, Stellar was the only one that correctly identified my eligibility for a $3,000 rebate through the San Diego Community Power program. Between that and the 30% tax credit they passed on through their lease, they were the most competitive price of all six quotes. My sales rep, Kenny Rutherford, was amazing. He spent hours reviewing my account history and ensuring the battery integration would work perfectly with my older hybrid system. I wasn't looking for the "cheapest" contractor; I wanted quality and responsiveness, and Kenny proved Stellar offered both. The installation team, led by Brandon, was equally incredible. Brandon was fantastic at navigating the technical hurdles of my specific setup, offering clear pros and cons for equipment placement. His communication during the power-down was spot on. The final result is clean, professional, and uses high-quality components. The real "wow" moment came the day after install. On a Sunday, I noticed water coming out of the service panel. Despite it being their day off, Brandon and his crew came out immediately. They determined the issue was actually an improperly sealed SDG&E conduit uphill from my home that failed during heavy rain. Even though it wasn't their fault, they stayed to help me coordinate with the utility for an emergency repair. The system has been running flawlessly, and my monthly bill has dropped from almost $400 to under $100. If you want the best price, quality, and service, go with Stellar. Huge thanks to Kenny and Brandon!
It's been 7 years and my @StellarSolar system is still producing power and saving me money every day. If you're looking to go solar and cut your electric bill, give Stellar Solar a call!
We had a great experience with for our solar panel + battery installation (along with a roofing subcontract). Our initial contact was Peter Kennelly, who was knowledgeable, responsive, and -- importantly -- never pushy. Going into the process, our biggest concerns were making sure the system was properly sized for our actual needs, that the equipment would be reliable, and that we were working with a company we could trust long-term. Stellar did a good job addressing all of those concerns. Communication throughout the process was consistent overall, and the various (many!) teams that came out to the house were professional and clearly experienced. We especially appreciated that they were knowledgeable not just about the equipment itself, but also SDG&E rates, battery strategy, and available rebates/programs. What really surprised us was the speed of the installation. From the first day of roofing to battery installation, panels, inspection, and formal permission to operate, the entire process took only 3.5 weeks. Stellar coordinated multiple internal teams, a roofing subcontractor, and the city seamlessly. The install itself looks clean and the system has been working very well so far (about 3 weeks in). The equipment feels solid and thoughtfully selected rather than oversold. If I had one critique, it would be that communication between some of the internal teams could occasionally have been smoother, but it was never a major issue and things ultimately got handled well. Overall, we're happy we chose Stellar Solar and would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality solar + battery installer.
I had solar panels installed by Stellar Solar over 6 years ago. The service has been great and I am very happy with my purchase. They did an amazing job with the install. They were professional and the install was quick. I?ve had no problems with the system and would highly recommend Stellar Solar to anyone who is looking to install solar panels or solar products. (866) 787-6527.
I used Stellar Solar back in April 2025 and had an excellent experience! The customer service from Connor and his team was outstanding. They delivered everything on budget and on schedule, and answered all my questions throughout the process. I was very happy with their service—so much so that I even referred a friend who had an equally great experience. Highly recommend Stellar Solar to anyone considering solar!
Stellar solar installed our system several years ago and we couldn't be happier. From sales to installation, the process was smooth and the communication was great. They also recommended the perfect sized system for our needs. Our true-up is usually around $25
We had a great experience with Stellar Solar. Our sales rep Johnny was very helpful and the whole team did a great job. Not only did they help us with the federal tax credit but also with a local battery rebate as well. I would highly recommend them if you are looking to go solar!
