About this company

"I became interested in renewables in general, and solar power specifically, when I learned about the risk posed by climate change. There was a time when the only reason to go solar was to help the environment. Today, the economics have changed dramatically, and solar power is not just cleaner power, it is also cheaper power!"

— Peter Belman, CEO

Over a year ago, I first met with Andy to discuss whether solar would even make sense for my home. At that time my roof was nearly 50 years old and had previous damage and neglect that I wanted to address before considering any major installation. I explained to Andy that I planned to replace the entire roof and the decking first to ensure the structure was sound. From that very first conversation, Andy was patient, knowledgeable, and never pushy. He understood my timeline and never pressured me to move faster than I was ready for. Once the roof was finally replaced, Andy immediately picked up where we left off and got the solar process moving smoothly. Throughout the entire experience, Andy was extremely professional and consistently quick to respond to any questions I had, no matter how small. He kept me informed, walked me through each step, and made what could have been a stressful project feel straightforward and well managed. His communication and reliability were outstanding, and I genuinely felt supported from start to finish. It has been a very positive experience working with Andy, and I highly recommend him to anyone considering solar. His professionalism, responsiveness, and commitment to his clients truly set him apart.

I happened upon Solar Energy World by chance searching Google for ways to save money on my electricity. I set up an appt with Ryan and he was very pleasant and made it easy to understand what we could get out of going solar and if it was a good option for us. He walked us through the process and I swear was just as excited as we were when things got installed and the day came to turn on the panels. Thank you Ryan for going the extra mile+ to make sure we were happy with our decision. ❤️

We had solar panels put in by Solar Energy World last summer and have seen a dramatic decrease in our electric bills. Brad was very helpful getting the process going and the crew who did the installation were great. The end result is really pretty. They also sent a great how to list when the system was complete and needed to be registered for tracking and SRECs. If you’re in the market, this is a great company to work with.

I began my solar journey getting far too many quotes from local, regional, and national companies. With an absurd amount of quotes and different equipment, I finally got in touch with Nick at Solar Energy World. While each company had their own way or presenting the data, equipment, and expected savings, Nick was the first to really just talk to me as a person and try to understand what I already knew and where gaps were in my knowledge. At no point did I ever feel pressured to make a decision, rather he just became someone that knew a ton about solar that I could ask questions. My personal style of understanding a new and expensive technology is to ask a ridiculous amount of questions and find very specific and detailed answers. Nick was able to do that for me with ease and without frustration. Rarely did I find something he didn't know off the top of his head and in a few cases where he didn't immediately have the answer, he checked in with the engineering team to get an accurate response. Once I decided to move forward with the quote, SEW worked behind the scenes to get everything lined up with the county and power company. Occasionally I'd get a question or two from the back office to clarify something they needed for permits but that was really it until they needed time from me for scheduling. Install of my system took about three days with racking and panels being installed on the first. Part of my installation also required replacement of my main breaker panel - something independently seen by another electrician at a later date that noted it was a great panel and the work was done well. After install was just a matter of waiting until the utility company gave permission to turn system on. Once that came in, Solar Energy World communicated via email and phone call to let me know we were ready to turn on and offered to guide me through powering up the system by flipping a breaker. The email they sent had example photos as well to help guide. Overall it was a pleasant and streamlined experience with a warranty better than anyone else that quoted me. Given they are a larger regional company I thought they were most likely to be resilient over the years than some smaller and the much larger national companies which were already struggling some.

We had a wonderful experience with Solar Energy World! From start to finish, the entire process was handled professionally and efficiently. A special thank you to Andrew Grygier, who was incredibly helpful throughout our solar roof panel installation. He kept us updated at every stage and clearly communicated exactly where we were in the process. From the very beginning, we were informed about our role and the steps we needed to take, which made everything smooth and stress-free. Andy followed up consistently and made sure we always felt supported. The company provided us with a very competitive quote compared to other companies we considered, which made our decision even easier. Their teams are well integrated and communicate seamlessly with each other, ensuring the work is done correctly the first time. The entire installation process—from start to finish—took about six months, and we were kept informed every step of the way. We highly recommend Solar Energy World to anyone considering going solar. Thank you again to Andy and the entire team for a great experience!
