The Verdict

We're recommending Wolf Track Energy without hesitation. Their installers ran conduit so neatly on one reviewer's house that she said "you couldn't ask for better," and we found 42 separate mentions of workmanship quality with zero complaints. Another homeowner had them integrate a new 5.6 kW roof system with his 15-year-old pole-mounted array and solar hot water tubes, a fiddly coordination job they handled without issue. What sets them apart is follow-through after the sale. One customer had a computer glitch six months post-install that stopped his monitoring software from talking to the system, not technically Wolf Track's problem, but they walked him through the fix anyway. We saw 36 reviews praising post-sale support with only 2 negatives, and several people mentioned calling them months or years later and still getting answers. The one wrinkle: one reviewer reported they never followed up after a site visit, and another complained about cold-call persistence. If you want an installer who'll troubleshoot your monitoring app long after they've cashed your check, this is your team.

If you're comparing bids and someone undercuts Wolf Track by a few thousand dollars, consider what happens when something breaks in year two. This crew answers the phone and fixes problems that aren't technically theirs to fix.

3 Stories That Stood Out

1. Charles Hathaway
Google | Jul 28, 2023 |

Charles waited more than a year for a rooftop solar installation, and throughout that long stretch Wolf Track maintained steady, clear communication so the process never felt abandoned. When the crew finally arrived, he watched a team that combined professionalism, practical know-how, efficiency and a friendly demeanor as they worked. They routed conduits and installed meters and boxes with an eye for aesthetics, so the exterior looked deliberate and tidy rather than tacked on. The crew also cleaned up thoroughly at the end, leaving the property spotless. The detail that lingered with him was how neat the exterior work looked — it made the installation feel finished and cared for.

2. Ann Sullivan
SolarReviews | Jul 23, 2020 |

Ann Sullivan attended several community presentations before CCLEP invited REAL Solar to speak to a group of neighbors worried about cutting energy costs and reducing their carbon footprints. The day after the talk, REAL Solar came by her ranch-style home to walk the site, answer questions, and outline how they could help. The crew installed the system, and even six months after the project finished they returned the favor when a computer issue stopped the array from communicating with Enphase, the monitoring service; REAL Solar diagnosed the communication problem and restored the connection. Now her panels are sending plenty of energy back to the grid — this month she received an $83 credit on her electric bill.

3. Mark Johnson
Google | Nov 1, 2024 |

Mark had an aging 2.8 kW pole-mounted array installed in 2009 and brought Wolf Track in to add a roof-mounted 5.6 kW system. He ended up with the two systems running smoothly together. Wolf Track arranged the new panels around his rooftop solar hot-water tubes and the glycol plumbing, preserving that existing setup during installation. The result increased his capacity without disrupting the hot-water system, leaving a tidy, fully functioning roof array.

2. Art Norton
Google | Feb 11, 2025 |

Art picked Wolf Track to install an 8 kW ground‑mount system and saw the crew execute a tightly organized installation from start to finish. The installers paused at each stage to explain the different components as they went up, so he felt comfortable with how everything fit together. The array went online in early December and has performed flawlessly since. He now checks production almost every day using the S‑miles data app and appreciates the real‑time visibility into how the system is doing.

3. Annie Simones
Google | Dec 26, 2024 |

Annie chose Wolf Track Energy to install solar on her cabin and found the team consistently professional and easy to work with. Their communication stayed clear from planning through installation, and when the rebate deadline loomed they pulled out all the stops to get paperwork and scheduling in place so the project would be considered for the MN Power Solar Sense rebate. She appreciated that attention to timing as much as the quality of the work — the company’s effort to meet the rebate deadline is what made the experience stand out.

2. Mary

Mary hired the company a year ago to install battery storage at her home. She found the installation crew competent, resourceful and friendly, handling the job and questions with ease. Twelve months later the batteries continue to perform exactly as promised, with no problems. The detail that stands out is the quiet reliability: a straightforward install and a system that simply works.

3. Patti Zahler
Google | Mar 28, 2023 |

In fall 2021 Patti had a solar system installed and brought online. She ended up very happy with how the system performs and with the installation crew — the combination of a working system and a crew she appreciated is what stuck with her.

1. Rex Kohl
Google | Mar 4, 2025 |

Rex Kohl spent two and a half years trying to get a contracted California installer to complete his solar system — the company took money and never performed, and he’s now pursuing legal action. Wolf Track Energy stepped in, navigated the approvals and finished the installation in about three months. He learned the hard way not to fall for out-of-state sales pitches and chose a licensed, bonded in-state provider instead. The detail that stuck with him: after years of delay, the whole project moved from stalled to finished in roughly three months.

2. Don Bremer
Google | Jan 24, 2025 |

Don set out to connect a solar array to the grid and quickly discovered how much red tape that involves. The company took over the entire backend: they handled all the paperwork and coordinated the subcontractors needed to finish the job. He appreciated that they navigated the permits, utility forms and contractor scheduling so he didn’t have to chase approvals — what stuck with him was that the team managed the logistics, leaving him to enjoy the system without wrestling with the bureaucracy.

3. Greta and Larry Zanko
Google | Dec 4, 2024 |

Greta and Larry Zanko hired Wolf Track Energy to put solar on their home and found the whole process unusually smooth. They experienced excellent communication and responsiveness from the start, and watched a team that was thorough, efficient, and courteous handle every step with professionalism and good humor. Once installers began work the project moved quickly—the finished system went online very soon afterward—and they’re now producing energy for their house. The lasting impression was that attentive, friendly service paired with a fast turnaround delivered a working system almost immediately.
