Patriot Energy Solutions reviews

Theresa had grown tired of the thousand-and-one calls and door-knocks about solar, so she only paid attention when her neighbor’s neat panel layout caught her eye. She met Jared from Patriot Solutions, who walked her through a clear panel layout, payment options and the timeline, and whose office took charge of the mountain of paperwork—filing permits, arranging inspections and even pursuing possible rebates so she didn’t have to chase anything. Jared recommended critter guards, and when a panel needed a tiny on-site adjustment, team lead Antonio moved it into a better spot. The installation crew stayed polite and executed the work cleanly. She ended up completely satisfied; what she remembers most is the company handling the paperwork and rebate process for her and making that small but important tweak on site.

Gia Wang had Patriot Energy Solution install a solar system on her home and found the whole process remarkably smooth. She experienced an efficient installation, with one team member — Jared — taking the lead to arrange both the installation and the electrical work. He coordinated the logistics, walked her through each step, and handled questions with professionalism and patience. She ended up with a finished system and a single, reliable point of contact who managed the details and explained the process clearly — the part she remembers most.

Mohamed E. moved forward with a solar installation expecting it to lower his bills, but quickly discovered he had been enrolled in two loans—one labeled as a tax-credit loan that only made sense if he could actually use the federal tax credit. As a low-income homeowner who does not owe federal taxes, he realized the federal solar tax credit is non-refundable, so that “tax credit” never materialized for him. He ended up stuck paying interest on money he should never have borrowed in the first place, with loans stretching 25 years into the future. Meanwhile his Con Edison bill stayed above $100 a month, so combined with the solar payments he’s now paying more than $600 monthly instead of saving. Attempts to get the company to fix the misrepresentation went unanswered, leaving him with higher bills and long-term debt. The clearest takeaway from his experience: verify you actually qualify to claim the federal tax credit before accepting loans that assume you will receive it—he remains on the hook for two long-term loans and a combined monthly bill exceeding $600.

darrient7 purchased a home solar system from Patriot Energy a little over three years ago and has experienced zero problems since. They received what the company called premium equipment designed for low degradation, backed by a 25-year equipment warranty, and the system has delivered steady trouble-free performance. The standout detail for them was the long warranty combined with low-loss hardware — after three years of uninterrupted operation, that warranty and reliability are what stuck in their mind.

Geneir Giovanni Branch brought Patriot in for an energy audit and to tap into solar for his home, and he walked away extremely pleased. He found the audit thorough and the switch to solar translated into clear savings on his energy costs. What stood out most was that the audit felt substantive rather than a formality, and the combination of that assessment with the solar work produced real, measurable benefit.

Frank had solar panels fitted on his home and, after more than a year, discovered no reduction in his electric bill. Instead he ended up paying PSEG while still dealing with the solar company’s charges and felt like he’d been scammed. The installation left a mess on the property and spilled oil onto his brand-new sidewalk and curb; the stain wasn’t addressed for over a month. He called in January to schedule repairs and never received a callback — he has continued to call and leave multiple messages with no one answering. What stayed with him was the combination of zero savings, the damaged new curb, and the company’s silence when he tried to get it fixed.

Jonathan and his wife Vanessa had been exploring solar to cut their energy bills, but heavy tree shading made a workable design tricky. He had even signed a contract with Momentum Solar before Patriot Energy Solutions stepped in. Jared, Patriot’s solar consultant, produced a better system layout that addressed the shading and then handled the rest of the project: a new garage roof plus the removal and stump grinding of about seven to eight very large trees. Beyond the improved design, Patriot delivered notable value and remarkable speed — roof work, tree removal, and the solar installation all wrapped up in roughly three weeks. He wanted to give them ten stars; the most memorable detail was how they managed the complicated site prep and installation end-to-end on an accelerated schedule.

Anthony Dilorenzo decided to move his home to solar and found the whole journey unusually easy. Patriot Energy guided him from the initial consultation through installation, keeping each step transparent and running smoothly. They also took care of paperwork and secured an extra NYSERDA incentive on his behalf, which ended up adding tangible value to the project. Throughout the process the team worked efficiently, kept him informed about what to expect next, and completed the install without surprises. He walked away with a finished system and the sense that Patriot’s proactive handling of incentives and clear communication made the difference.

Mohamed, a low-income homeowner who doesn’t owe federal income tax, went into a rooftop solar deal expecting lower bills but soon discovered he had been signed up for two loans. He was promised one of those loans — marketed around the federal solar tax credit — would be covered once he received money back from the government, but he learned the hard way that the federal credit is non‑refundable: if you don’t owe taxes, you get nothing. As a result he ended up stuck with 25‑year loans and paying interest on money he should never have borrowed. His Con Edison bill remains above $100 a month, and his total outlay for solar plus electric now exceeds $600 each month instead of producing savings. He feels the company misrepresented the tax credit, pushed him into unaffordable financing, and left him worse off than before the install — and now his calls to the company go unanswered. The bottom line he’s living with: two long-term loans, no tax credit benefit, higher monthly costs, and no customer support to fix it.
