How It Works '1-2-3'
Our Service Process
Consultation & Design
Sit down with someone from our team for a consultation and learn about the solar solutions available to you that will allow you to be energy self-sufficient. As an experienced Maui solar company, we’ll determine the best location to install solar panels and any other equipment needed. We’ll also look at your current energy usage and come up with a custom energy solution.
Permitting & HECO Processing
Permitting is a fairly straightforward process here in Hawai’i. After you sign the contract, we will send our proposal to permitting and HECO and let them know about the solar panel installation. This process takes up to 15 days, and after that, we’ll get your installation on the books.
Installation & Savings
Solar installations only take a few days. Then your system will be energized, and you’ll start saving on your energy bills right away. Whether it’s solar panels and an inverter, or installing features like a solar water heater or a solar AC, your solar panel system will save you money and reduce your impact on the planet.

FAQs
You can save 100% of your utility bill with solar panel installation in Maui. In fact, we have various products available to ensure that you do. You will need to purchase your solar panel system, and our customers either do that outright or through financing. For those that finance their solar panels, it’s likely their loan payment will replace their utility payment entirely. And unlike a utility payment, a loan payment is a fixed payment for the life of the loan—not subject to inflation and rising fuel prices like a utility bill is.

We Love Maui, Hawai’i
The Valley Isle is one of Hawai’i stunning islands, full of sights both locals and tourists are fascinated by. Sure, the Road to Hana is a favorite destination for tourists, but it’s also one of the best ways for anyone on the island to see some of its most beautiful features, including waterfalls and stunning views. Maui is also home to gorgeous beaches, like Baldwin Beach Park and Makena Beach State Park. Haleakala National Park preserves the dormant Haleakala Volcano, as well as several endangered species. And people love going there to watch the sunrise from a stunning overlook. These are just a few of the treasures that Maui has to offer, and we love being a part of this incredible community.
