Respectful, insightful, thought-partner in designing our system
AES has been an exceptional partner in helping us design the solar and battery system that best meets our needs. Over several months and multiple phone calls, emails, video chats, and a site visit, they educated us extensively on possible options and helped narrow and tailor a system that best meets our goals of sustainability, saving money, and having backup power during outages. I contacted numerous solar installers and AES stood out from the rest. They engaged me as an intelligent consumer, educated me, and never applied pressure or tried up-sell me. I highly recommend them to anyone considering solar panels or a battery. They impressed me as knowledgeable experts committed to meeting my needs.

Great Service to restore data collection through solar edge
My Solar edge had stopped transmitting data since May 4. I had a good discussion on the phone with Lauren to discuss my options to fix it. Since I had recently changed my Router, I needed to reprogram it. I could not and they sent a technician out. The technician evaluated the problem and the need to update my Wi-Fi extender. He made a good recommendation to install a physical line from my Inverter to my Router so that I do not have future problems again if I changed my router. He did a fantastic job to install the line with minimal view of the installed line. Great job all round!!!

Trustworthy local company; high-quality service & support
AES installed solar for my home, and also an EV car charger that has the option of only charging off of excess production from my array (i.e., no need to draw from the grid!). AES's support and service have been incredibly high-level. Their team is genuinely interested in providing a high level of service and ensuring everything works well. I had some hiccups with the EV charger, but the problem was with the equipment and the manufacturer; regardless, the AES team put long hours into it and completely fixed it, at no additional cost to me. You know the saying 'think globally, act locally'? I can't imagine going with a national company. AES is local, and they've been consistently there for me. A++++

Home Solar
I have nothing but positive feedback for this company. Starting with my sales consultant and all through the process, everyone was professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. The project manager kept me updated. The solar panel installers were excellent and on time as were the backup battery install team. Both teams were respectful of being in and around my house. Also, everyone was responsive and patient with all my questions. I’m glad I used this company.

Reviewing Solar and choosing a Solar Contractor
I began looking into placing solar panels on my house in May. Alternative Energy Southeast, Inc was quick to contact me and began working up a quote for the installation I was looking for. They have been very professional and informative throughout the entire process. They just completed the permitting for the project and will start to install before the end of August. I couldn't be happier with the work they have done for me and I expect that they will continue to impress me throughout the final installation. Thank you everyone at Alternative Enerergy Southeast, Inc.

great experience
AES did a fantastic job setting us up and running with our solar system. It is working great! Although we had a little hiccup with the install, AES went above and beyond to correct and resolve the issue.

Reducing our carbon footprint day by day . . .
We definitely had some hiccups along the way, but overall we are very happy with our PV system. Adam Hoyt is a thorough planner, and a good advocate. Most of our issues had to do with work performed by a subcontractor, not AES itself. I believe that AES will learn from this experience and improve as a company.

Five Star Experience
We can can not speak highly enough of AES. Our solar installation is working as planned and we are having significant monthly electric bill savings. <br />The actual installation and follow up service from AES was exemplary. The. workmanship, professionalism, and courteousness of everyone involved in our project was top notch. <br />From the initial estimate process through to the completion of your project you can not do better than AES.

Solar Electric System
Project was a little late starting but once started was completed in a reaspnable time. Have been using system for 8 months and cost saving estimates were a little optimistic but may be a dependent on my electric usage. Overall satisfied with system and federal tax credit was helpful in cashflow payback time period. Cashflow payback estimate provided is probably a little optimistic.

Solar Power: My Big Project for the Year
Through Solarize Athens we were able to have 36 solar panels installed on our south-facing barn roof. It wil take 10 years or so to pay for itself (Rayle Electric only gives us 4 cents per KW hour put back on the grid), but it's great to have a part right now in the leading environmental technology.
