The Verdict

Infinity Energy will leave your solar project in limbo for months on end. One customer signed in July 2021 for an installation promised in six weeks, paid in full, and still had no working system eighteen months later after three no-show installation dates and a surprise 40% price hike. We found 212 complaints about project management, with patterns of zero progress updates, unreachable decision-makers, and projects stalled for a year or more after installation because the company couldn't complete inspections or utility paperwork. In 205 reviews about follow-up support, the story repeats: install crews do show up and finish the physical work, but then systems sit dark for months while you chase customer service through 30-minute hold times, and operations staff refuse to take your calls. The install team gets high marks when they actually arrive (115 positive workmanship mentions), but it's a moot point if you're paying a loan on panels that aren't generating power. We spotted several threads where customers filed complaints with state licensing boards or threatened small claims court just to force the company to finish what they sold. At least one reviewer joked that pretending the solar payment is a car note makes it easier to stomach, which works great until the car never leaves the lot.

If you're weighing Infinity Energy, assume you'll become your own project manager and budget an extra year of utility bills while the system sits offline. The install work itself isn't the problem. The collapse happens after the panels go up, when approvals and activations drift into a void and no one returns your calls.

Reviews That Shaped Our Verdict

Elbert's
SolarReviewsJan 9, 2024

Elbert spent nearly two years trying to get the solar system the company had sold him actually connected and producing power. After repeated delays and broken promises, he escalated the matter to the CSLB and had his attorney send letters; the company ultimately went out of business and the system never got hooked up. He ended up with an unpaid, inactive installation and a legal file instead of electricity. He's urging other buyers to file CSLB complaints quickly so those complaints add to the record—if a judge rules for customers, the judgment is more likely to carry over to any new licenses tied to that business.

JIM M
SolarReviewsJul 6, 2023

Jim had a solar system installed on his home a year ago and has endured a string of failures ever since. A year after installation the array still isn’t generating power and he remains un‑cleared to operate, so his utility bill hasn’t changed while he continues to pay for equipment that never delivered as promised. Repeated installation errors and sloppy work allegedly created so many problems that they upset LADWP, and attempts to get answers have stalled — emails and phone calls go unanswered. He calls the company negligent and incompetent; the lasting image is panels on the roof producing nothing while the homeowner keeps footing the bill.

Ethan P.
YelpSep 3, 2022

Ethan P. ordered two Tesla Powerwalls from Infinity Energy in August 2020, expecting a 45–60 day turnaround for a home battery installation through the Rocklin-area company. He waited patiently through repeated explanations about COVID, chip shortages and Tesla diverting inventory, but over the following two years he discovered via SGIP public reports that Infinity had been installing systems for customers who signed up long after him. After filing a complaint with the BBB, Infinity finally installed his two Powerwalls in January — explaining they had placed him on a Pleasanton warehouse waitlist that received fewer units and had to send a Rocklin crew to complete his job. That detail — being passed to a different warehouse waitlist despite being told installations were first-come, first-served — became the clearest sign to him that the company wasn’t being straight. Installers promised the remaining steps (grounding rods, permit inspection, PG&E Permission to Operate and SGIP rebate submission) would wrap up in a month or two, but eight months later none of those items had been completed. Infinity pointed to changing fire-department code requirements, yet Ethan also encountered

Tanja E
BBBJan 9, 2024

Tanja E discovered that, after almost two years, the solar system Infinity Energy had sold her never got hooked up or finished. She battled nearly two years to get what the company’s agent promised and ended up with nothing installed — and rising interest rates have put her off solar altogether for now. She filed a complaint with the ***** and hired an attorney to send demand letters and to respond to the company’s threatening notices about placing a lien on her home. Along the way she learned Infinity Energy appears to be going out of business and abandoning customers through bankruptcy. She doesn’t expect a BBB complaint to help, has urged others to join the complaint with *****, and notes that the prosecutor assigned to their case is now involved. She warns would‑be customers to read the many angry Yelp and other reviews first — the image that stuck with her was months of legal paperwork and lien threats instead of a working system on the roof.

Dylan K.
YelpNov 29, 2023

Dylan K. hired the company for a very small residential solar job, and more than a year later the system still hasn’t been completed. He found the project stalled with virtually no customer support and no one accepting responsibility when things went off track. The contract language felt vague and misleading, making it difficult to hold the installer to a timeline. He warned others to avoid the company unless they get clear, enforceable completion dates and accountability written into the contract before signing.
