  Reached out to Smart Energy Brokers in December 2020, admittedly, because a friend from childhood works for the company. He is honest and ethical, and when it came to a cost-benefit analysis, he was on point! The process with Smart Energy … More was extremely painless and fast. The numbers were as expected, and most importantly, stayed that way. Dan presented straight forward options with no confusion, was responsive to all of our questions, and followed through in every way possible, at every possible opportunity. Couldn’t have asked for a simpler process considering the investment! Thank you Dan and Smart Energy Brokers!

  My wife and I had thought solar wouldn't fit in our budget, but after we saw the numbers the move to solar made economic sense. Thankfulły Dan guided us easily thru the whole process, from selecting the product to dealing with the … More paperwork, the installation (flawless), the inevitable necessary permits, and final smooth interface with PG&E. We now have the best system available, in place and operating $weetly, only three-plus months after our first conversation with Dan. Our thanks to your team!

  I feel like the residential solar game is like the new world slimy car salesman. Within hours of inputting my information online to perform research on what solar system might work best for my small home, I was inundated with phone calls, … More emails, and people knocking at my door trying to convince me that every solar installer out there is a crook except for them. It turns out that they were right about the crooks - they are out there. Many of the companies that did solicit me quoted 1.5 to 2.5 times the cost that I finally settled with. That said, my experience with Smart Energy Brokers LLC was quite the opposite. I explained immediately to my consultant at SEB, Kristian, that I was overwhelmed and really wanted to skip the pitch and just wanted honest information about solar and what SEB could provide for me to meet my energy goals. Kristian was transparent, knowledgeable, and worked with me to design the system that best fit my energy requirements. Furthermore, Kristian kept in contact with me throughout the installation process, answered all of my questions (lots of them!), and helped me understand what I should expect moving forward. Kristian and his team at SEB are top notch, 10/10 I highly recommend these folks, they won't steer you wrong. And seriously - thanks for just being transparent and good humans, I wish you all the best of luck!

  Easy and painless experience.One local business tried to sell me a system with only 10 panels and Tomm informed me that it wouldn’t be enough. He was able to price the same exact system with 13 panels and was still cheaper than the competitions … More quote.I did my homework and got quotes from other solar businesses for 4.5kw systems and SEB still beat all the other prices.Financing was easy with a low interest rate. And installation was a breeze only taking 5 hours.I’ll be getting another house in the future and will be sure to go back to SEB again.

  We had our first solar system installed about ten years ago and it has been preforming well. However, the system was undersized and with the help of Dan Swint and Smart Energy Brokers we were able to add an additional system that should … More fully satisfy our usage requirements. Our experience was very good, several options were presented and we were very pleased with the process, including installation. Good job!

  The process was extremely simple. Nick asked qualifying questions to help me create the right system size for my home. There was no pressure to move forward but the option we chose was a no brainer. We just got installed yesterday and the … More installation was quick and professional. The system looks AMAZING! I highly recommend Nick and Smart Energy Brokers if you're looking to go Solar. You will not be disappointed.

  I originally posted a 1 star review after receiving a proposal from this company. The owner called me the next day to why. (He obviously cares which is worth 5 starts in my mind.) The reason for my initial 1-star review is that I am … More a PG&E customer and PG&E's rate plans.If you are a PG&E customer this is something you should know before installing solar. PG&E has 14 different rate plans for solar customers. Unlike other power companies PG&E allows you sell your excess solar electricity to PG&E from anywhere between $0.14 and $0.55. Then when you need electricity you can buy it back. This means you can sell electricity to PG&E at $0.55 and buy it back for just $0.14 which leave you with a $0.41 credit to buy electricity from PG&E at another time. This also means I do not need as many solar panels saving me thousands of dollars. (The person I was working with at Smart Energy Brokers apparently din't understand this.)Now to make things more complicated for PG&E customers considering going solar is that PG&E dropping the amount they are paying for solar electricity from $0.55 to a flat $0.16 for the rate plan I am on at the end of this year. This means I would need to sell PG&E 3 times as much solar electricity for every 1 KWhr I use at night. With PG&E only playing $0.16 it looks like PG&E is making is so solar just isn't worth installing. (But this is for the rate plan I am currently on.)In talking to the owner I realized he was only aware of 2 of PG&E's 14 rate plans. I think they are a good company trying to do their best as PG&E tries to make this as difficult and confusing as possible for customers and solar companies. I like the idea of installing solar. But I think PG&E is doing their best to make it financially unfavorable for us. I'm going to wait and see what PG&E does next year before installing solar.
