Santa Cruz Renewables - Soquel, California

Jacy Dickel deserves my and my wife's 5- star rating. When my wife and I were first considering solar companies to get solar panels installed on our roof, we contacted several solar companies, most were large companies , who just had sales people sent out to meet with us. However, we were happy to go with a smaller company, Santa Cruz Renewables, Jacy being the owner. With help of course, he personally climbed on the roof to install 34 solar panels about 2-1/2 years ago. We are quite pleased with its performance. Jacy has not only demonstrated a high degree of professionalism, but is very relatable , friendly, and very knowledgable in his field. So, I am looking forward to Jacy installing our back-up solar batteries soon, which we have already purchased.

Santa Cruz Renewables did an excellent job on my solar project at my home. Jacy providing competitive pricing and was very responsive to any questions I had. I would definitely use them again for future work.

Santa Cruz Renewables is by far one the finest businesses I've done business with. Jacy was straight forward and up front, provided excellent service, and there were no surprises. Santa Cruz Renewables provided a personalized service that fit our exact needs, we got a personal phone call from Jacy before, during, and after our solar install. He answered all our questions every step of the way, regardless of how insignificant it may have seemed. I was amazed to get a random phone call a few weeks after the install, simply to ask how everything was working, if we had any questions and if there was anything that we needed assistance with. We experienced solar energy starting day one and even saw our PG&E meter go in reverse.

In addition to our initial solar install, Jacy has gone above and beyond for us, more than we could have ever expected. We wanted to add our shop to our solar system he installed. Needless to say, PG&E can be a nightmare at times and we've had a battle with PG&E during this process. Jacy has personally taken on this project and has jumped through hoops with PG&E as well as our county to get everything straightened out and our solar system hooked up the way we want it. Without Jacy’s guidance and assistance, we would have been lost trying to get this done.

If Santa Cruz Renewables offered other products and services, I would buy them as well. Santa Cruz Renewables is by far one of the finest businesses I've had the pleasure to work with. Get your solar from them, you will not be disappointed, it will be an amazing, personalized experience.

I can’t say enough wonderful comments about Jacy and his crew. Everything went smoothly and as planned. Everything was delivered as promised and the quality of the work was commendable. Take it from a retired building inspector, you can absolutely trust Santa Cruz Renewables for your solar needs. I will be referring them to my friends and family.

We've always wanted to support small businesses and we were happy to have Santa Cruz Renewable to take care of our solar project. Even though the project took longer than expected due to the pandemic (due to the closure of government) Jacy kept us updated with the progress and he really took care of us during the process. If you want your solar done at a great competitive cost, great service, this is the company to go to.

I had a very positive experience with Santa Cruz Renewables. They will work with you to find the best solution for the requirements and budget. All project took less than 6 weeks from the start till the acceptance to the PG&E grid. I received a copy of all documentation including full electric plan which was very professionally made. Installation occurred over few appointments that they basically accommodated my schedule. In the end I got a beautiful system with top line panels, micro-inverters, remote monitoring, 25 yr warranty for the price per W installed that is 30-50% less than well known solar installers. I highly recommend Jacy and Santa Cruz Renewables.

I would give Santa Cruz Renewables 10 stars if that were possible. I had wanted to upgrade my rental home with solar for a long time, but thought it would be too complicated, and too expensive for a rental. Working with Santa Cruz Renewables could not have been any easier. The price was fantastic, and more importantly to me because my rental is long term investment, the materials and warranty were the best available, the design and contract aspects were clear and easy to understand, the install was fast and the post install clean up was good. The customer service/liaison services provided for dealing with PG & E were complete, and the follow up customer service has been excellent. Going solar is major investment for any homeowner, and of course price matters, but so does peace of mind. The entire process start to finish has been unbelievably stress free. I know that my system will be a good return on investment in multiple ways, I know that it was installed by very experienced professionals, not some "joes" that just jumped on the solar gravy train. I know my system is high quality, long lasting and efficient. And I know that if I have any questions or issues in the future, Santa Cruz Renewables will be around for me. I look forward to working with them again in the future and cannot recommend them highly enough.

Santa Cruz Renewables /Jacy and Team did a great job on my solar project. I interviewed many companies before deciding to go with SCR and I’m very happy I chose them. Jacy was communicative throughout the process and made the whole experience very simple. Our system was up and running on time and for a great price. Highly recommend to anyone looking for solar.
