Revolt Energy - Nitro, West Virginia

I recently had a Tesla power wall installed with 30 panels. I highly recommend revolt energy. The whole process from beginning to end was simple and they explained every step of the process. The work done was professional and they took the time to make show it not only worked but looked great too! Very courteous and friendly group.

We just had an 18 panel system with a Tesla Powerwall installed on our house by Revolt! These guys were super professional, courteous, and kept in constant contact every step of the way. I have never once had to ask a question or wonder if or when they were showing up. They have gone above and beyond and our installation was top quality and looks great! These guys are IBEW electricians; they are the definition of highly trained professionals.
Give Revolt a call! You won't regret it. 100% recommendation without reservation.

Communication during install was lacking. Placement plans were changed during installation day without any discussion. 3 more panels were able to fit on the main house, however, with the need for distance from ridges in the roof line, the panels were placed almost at the edge of the roof and were visible when looking up from ground level (see photo). Would the panels have been able to be placed higher if the 3 panels weren't on the main house? I don't know, but I believe it would have allowed the remaining top row panel(s) to fit horizontally instead of vertically and provided some additional room. With being visible from the ground, I had concerns about rain passing over the gutters so, after expressing that concern, they came back another day to move them up a few inches. Still visible, but hopefully far enough back to where the rain has room to run off and go into the gutters.

I also had a Tesla EV charger installed and asked for the Universal model to be ordered because I had not yet bought an EV and the Universal worked with both types of plugs. I confirmed that the Universal model was being ordered on no less than 3 occasions (because it wasn't specifically written anywhere and only said Tesla Wall Connector) and was assured the correct one was being ordered. The Tesla NACS charger was what was ordered and installed instead. An adapter was supplied by Revolt after expressing concerns.

Did the crew install the panels well, it appears so, no leaks so far. They painted conduit black to match the shingles. The install itself I'm pleased with. Was the price competitive? Yes. Was communication up to the day of the job acceptable, yes, except the type of EV Charger not clearly being written down in the proposal.

To be clear, I'm not saying don't hire Revolt, I'm saying be outside and be asking questions during installation to make sure plans are followed and in case anything arises that you may want to provide input on. If you have roof offset requirements, be sure that they map placement and there's sufficient space at the edge of your roof for rain to reach your gutters. Don't assume that's being considered and don't assume that if there are changes that can be or need to be made that you'll be made aware and that those changes or options will be talked through with you.

*Update - Concerns regarding panel placement are past the point where they can be easily changed without me incurring additional labor costs. Mapping out panel placement considering visual appearance, production ability, roof ridge setback requirements and accounting for a reasonable distance from the roof's edge to allow for proper rain runoff should have been completed on day of installation prior to any rails being laid for the panels. I say should have because I don't see how, if it were done, that the panels would have been placed so close to, practically right at, the roof's edge. The mapping should have also taken into consideration if the main house could accommodate 3 additional panels or if space was needed to reorient the top row of panels horizontally to better fit on the roof in order to address the placement issues above. These aren't things I would have been aware of beforehand to bring up for discussion. The same goes for the 2 additional panels I had installed. I didn't think to ask if the panels would stick out past my roof corners once the array was moved up a few inches. They do. So this is what I mean by be outside, ask questions, even ones you don't think you need to ask.

I spent a year getting estimates from three solar companies and chose Revolt Energy for my rooftop solar installation. Revolt gave me the best price by over $1000 on my 24 panel x 400 watts rooftop installation - plus I got to keep my solar energy credits (unlike another WV company who has a business model of offering to buy your SREC credits in perpetuity but still came in more expensive). Revolt sent very competent people to my house for the installation, explained every step of the way and their business people were very honest and professional in handling my contract. I can't recommend this company enough. One of my closest friends here in town, followed my recommendation, and he is also just as pleased as I am with Revolt Energy.

The solar journey for us started 6 months ago. Revolt makes it easy to get in the game. I’m very satisfied with the quality of the equipment and the peripherals of the installation. The whole team was easy to work with and professional in execution. I have 26 panels on my garage generating wattage as I write this. All good. I’ve recommended Revolt to friends and neighbors. And will recommend anyone kicking around the solar idea to contact Revolt for an assessment. Won’t cost you anything and if it’s doable the Revolt team can make it happen.

Revolt Energy installed my solar panels in October 2022 and a year later I still feel like this was the best decision I've made! Every person on the project team kept me informed - I never had any unanswered questions, these folks know their business! I needed some electrical upgrades and Revolt took care of that too. They work clean, too. I have to say it made a huge impact on me that I could feel comfortable being away from home with work going on inside my house - that alone means more to me than I am able to express. My solar energy system works as well today as it did when first installed and I know if I have trouble or questions that Revolt is going to have my back. I would recommend 100%.

I love this company! They are so professional and I felt like I was in great hands. They really know the technology, they understand the consumer's needs, and can explain the financial side of things (even to me). I recommend Revolt Energy 100%, they get a big A+ from me!

I am not usually one to post reviews, but the team at Revolt absolutely blew us away with their outstanding professionalism and customer service! Absolutely went above and beyond educating my wife and I on our options and were not pushy at all throughout the sales process. If you are wanting to cut costs with the electric company with solar energy in West Virginia….THESE ARE THE ONLY GUYS AND GALS YOU SHOULD DO IT WITH!
