Brian fixed my unit from a manufacturer's defect and then came and took out my old furnace. Great job! Came home to everything tidy and clean. Thank you all so much.

Josh and Marino installed an EV charger and updated the CB panel and wiring with speed, efficiency and accuracy. Highly recommend them.

We had a great experience with Independent Solar, they were on time, honest, polite and the price was right. We recommend their service!

Highly recommended. Here are the details:When I decided to install a rooftop solar system on my Helena home, I sought references on quality companies (and ignored all the door-knockers). About a quarter of the homes in my subdivision have panels, and my neighbors named three companies. My cousin who works in the industry then mentioned Independent Power as a solid provider.I developed a list of questions and called all four. They all made it to the next phase of submitting a preliminary proposal and price. At that point I eliminated one of the Helena companies due to second-tier or lower equipment.The proposals from the remaining three companies – one in Helena, one in Missoula and Independent Power in Bozeman – were all solid. All Enphase inverters, with Tier-1 panels and good warranties. They then all took time to go through the list of follow-up questions I had developed and gave what I believe were accurate and thorough answers. All sent me spec sheets and warranty info on the equipment they proposed. All offered on-staff qualified electricians on their teams.Independent was not the cheapest in $/Watt or $/kWh, but was competitive. In the end, I chose them because they offered the highest-watt panels – their 430W Q Cells took around 15% less roof space for the same production. So some day if I need to expand, I’ll still have some room.Their on-site people seem outstanding, from the drone and attic visit to get exact measurements for design finalization, to their install team which included their master electrician who has been with IP for 16 years. I had a minor problem with the metering system on startup, which worried me since they are not a local company. They immediately dug in to it remotely, consulted Enphase, and when they could not resolve it from a distance sent the electrician back timely to work everything out.

Independent Power did a great job for us again! Our range quit on us to we decided to move from gas to induction. Josh was able to schedule us in with a minimal wait and he and Marino did a great job running a new electrical line for the new range. In the process, they found “ melted “ outlet (read fire hazard) and changed it for us at no charge! Josh and team have earned our trust and are our go-to team for all our electrical needs. Highly recommend them!

We have used Independent Power for an EV charger installation and more recently for a home battery installation. They were great to work with from beginning to end - helpful at the sales side in answering all of my detailed questions, in the scheduling, in coordinating with Xcel and the city for permitting, and in installation and commissioning. They did very neat and competetent work. Highly recommend.

We had a terrific experience going solar with Independent Power. As a first step, we used Energy Sage to help us meet and negotiate with three solar vendors in our area (Larimer Co., CO). Independent was the most responsive and cost-competitive of all the vendors we spoke with. Installation of our system was complicated, in part because we asked Independent to also include an EV Charger in our scope of work, and in part because we had to work w/ our local utility to upgrade our area's transformer, wiring, and breaker panel to accommodate these new systems before they could be activated. Independent's team was with us every step of the way, liaised w/ the utility so we didn't have to, and met every single one of our needs! Special shout outs to electricians Dave and PJ, project tech Jan (an incredible young Navajo woman who not only serve's Independent's clients but also is working to promote solar energy with American Indian nations across America), and our project manager, Kyle. Independent Power is a great company run with exceptional staff. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting to go solar across the Front Range.

Excellent service and craftsmanship. Sales was patient and answered all my questions, never pushy, it always felt like a casual conversation with a friend. The install team was friendly, skilled and efficient. Overall very happy with the process and product from start to finish.
