Powur is a complete one stop shop experience for all your solar needs.

They handled all facets of procuring, installing, and maintaining a system. Powur facilitated all the paperwork including getting approval from the power grid owner, worked with the city to get permits, and worked with my HOA for approval to install a solar system. They arranged for a local installation company that did a great job and were quick.

I found the methodology that Powur uses to be very efficient and easy to understand... Kick Off, Site Survey, Custom Design, and so on.

Their facilitating processes made it so easy for me. This included their invoice processing system, the Powur phone app to keep apprised of the project, and timely delivery of crucial information by email.

Powur was very communicative throughout the process. I would get email comms or feeds via the Powur phone app.

Though I never talked to Powur staff on the phone, I found them to be very professional and quick to respond and thorough through email comms.

The overall experience with Powur was lightning fast for this area of the country... 39 days from contract signing to final city inspection to power up the system.

I'm glad I chose Powur for my solar needs and I'm one satisfied customer.

When we first considered adding solar panels to our home, we thought mostly of the tax advantage not the savings. Our home is 2900 SF on the ground floor and 1700 SF in the basement so a total of 4600 SF most of the homes in our neighborhood are roughly the same size if not larger. We are the only ones with solar panels. Speaking with our neighbors their power bills range from 500 - 800 per month. From the sales agent to the installers, we couldn't have asked for a better process. The only issue we had was with the power company, and that was only because we had no billing or usage history to work from. Initially we were authorized 25 panels and one year later we are authorized and additional 10 for a total of 35 panels. The power company charges $15.74 per month as a connectivity charge. This charge is assessed to manage the connection of our panels to the power grid. We added the solar panels to the home in 2023 with a connection to the grid of 4-13-2023. Over the 20 months we have had solar, our average bill has been 105.02 minus the connection fee of $15.74 for a total of 89.28. This is where it gets interesting the excess energy is stored as a megawatt (MWh) which we can sell. In Pennsylvania the average sale price is $30.00 per MWh. I currently have 24.9 MWh if you do the math, they will sell for roughly $747.00. Doing the math again the monthly electric bill is now $51.93. What I am saying in all this, is that solar panels will save you money and this is the best company we spoke with they are honest, upfront and willing to do whatever it takes to make you happy. One final thing to mention we have a pool and in the summer to pump runs 24/7, using a lot of electricity. I have attached a copy of my last bill and if asked will supply any of the last 20 months electric bills. That is how confident I am with the product and the company. Paul and the team are top notch.

Our consultant, Michelle Brunetti Ball, was fantastic. The installation crew was nice and courteous. The financing company Good leap, not Powur is not the best. They started our term in July the job wasn't even completed until October, so 3 months of interest accumulated. Again, this is not a Powur issue. I love having a
Xcel bill under $30!!!
I recommend Solar with Powur. Just understand the financing thoroughly.

Our experience with Powur has been great! Our consultant, Justin Girdler, was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. Every question was answered, and any issues were quickly resolved. He made everything simple, and everything has worked out just as he said it would.

The financing was simple through Good Leap, the installation was top notch, the system design is remarkable, and it has been functioning well for a year now. The customer service and support team at Powur has been great as well!

I highly recommend Justin Girdler and Powur!

Justin was very courteous and informative. He was available whenever we had a question. Always called back promptly. Would highly recommend him and Powur. Couldn't be happier. Saving money already.

It took a few years for my husband to decide that we should look into solar panels (he was very much against them since our daughter had a bad experience with leasing some solar panels and then he didn't want them on the front of the house). After him seeing so many houses with solar on the front, he decided that it wasn't that bad. We spoke to a couple solar representatives and Chris Mitchell won us over! He was extremely knowledgeable and very upfront with everything - and not pushy. Chris explained the rebate and how the financing worked. He was patient with us as we decided how much we wanted to put as a down payment. He always responded quickly whenever we had a question, which we had several. The installation was very timely and we were kept informed about what was next. We are so happy that we finally took the leap! Our home is entirely electric, so we don't get many "low" power bills throughout the year. Our average bill was around $350 a month, and our two bills prior to getting solar were right at $500. Our first bill after turning on the panels was $39.08 and our next bill was $19.78. Now I actually look forward to getting our NV Energy bills!

I feel so fortunate to have selected Powur to handle my Solar Power installation. As soon as I began working with their representatives, I knew I had selected the right company. All their employees and representatives with whom I have dealt are always very informative and have made sure that I know they have my best interest at heart. They have followed through on all promises and by the time their electrical and solar technicians appeared at my house to start the project, I was not disappointed that they have the most knowledgeable and professional crew selected to handle my project. All were so polite and respectful of my property and worked very efficiently and as a well coordinated team. I was not surprised that they finished the job successfully a day early. Zach had installed a new Generac Panel box for me to replace the out dated one and had labeled all my circuit breakers with very legible identifiable tags which had never existed. The whole project was so seamless that when Zach came to tell me that he had turned on the solar power to check it out, I was not even aware that my house had been running on solar for the previous two hours.
