Understand this before entering into a contract with SunPower: once you're locked in, no matter how many times your unit fails, no matter how many times technicians come out to assess, diagnose, and fix the problem, there's no getting out of the contract. If you're buying a home that has SunPower panels, you are bound to the terms that the original lessor signed, no matter how old the panels and unit are (there is a chart indicating diminished efficiency over time).
This means they will not renegotiate a rate with you despite a 2-3% reduction in solar watts. The only option is to buy the unit outright. I speak from experience in both matters. Overall the unit has saved me some money each year but has been faulty (it completely quit working two summers ago and, after numerous technician appointments which time and time again did not fix the unit, their answer was to compensate me at a fraction of what I lost due to no longer being on grid).
At that time I was renting the home. Now I am purchasing the home outright and am requesting to renegotiate the terms of the contract signed by the previous owner. So far, no luck in receiving a response other than "we cannot change the contract signed by the previous homeowner". Hopefully there is a reasonable conclusion to this other than "your loss sucker" from SunPower. I will update this review and rating depending on results.

Sun Solar made this entire process painless. They were easy to talk to, highly responsive with question, and I was really impressed that the sales people were knowledgeable enough of the technology to be able to talk tech with me (I am an engineer). I am very glad I went with this company for my solar installation.

Recently I have been thinking about installing solar panels at my house, but I didn't know much about the process so I decided to reach out to Sun Solar. I was in contact with Hakela and she was great! She explained to me what the benefits of going solar are, what the process is like, and answered any follow up questions I had. The best part was that she sounded happy to be helping me and reassured me that I could go back to her if I had any more questions or needed further assistance. Fantastic customer service!

I looked at a lot of solar companies in Bakersfield. In the end Sun Solar had everything I could ever ask for. The design of my system was great. No conduit. The install went fast and clean. I have not paid pg@e a dime in over a year. If you want the best company that is also local. Sun Sun Power by Sun Solar is the way to go. I would recommend them to anyone who asks.

Hired this company to install solar panels on our home back in 2015. Best bid. They came and installed the system got connected to the grid and running. When the installation crew left, there was no trash or destroyed landscaping. It was like they were never there except now the house had solar panels. Came back a few years later and added a couple more of panels.
Later even upgraded to a battery storage unit. Came back again and put another battery in. Outstanding customer service and technical support. I haven't paid for anything beyond the PG&E connection fee since 2015. I also get money paid back from the Utilty every year. Some of the best money I ever spent. No real noticeable degradation in the power output. I can run the house at night without any of PG&E's electricity. SunPower made it easy, and still does. Cannot recommend more highly.
