“One of the reasons I didn’t look into solar earlier was I thought it was going to cost us $30,000 out of pocket, I had heard these systems were super expensive. The reason Why We Went Solar was Golden Bear Solar showed us how to finance it with $0 out of pocket! Plus we saved $1,000 in the 1st year… and that is going to do nothing but go up!”

“Adding a battery back-up can be a bit of a challenge, especially when dealing with large technology companies. The reason Why We Went Solar battery back-up with Golden Bear was because they found a solution that fit our existing system, plus they fixed issues with our solar install all while keeping us in the loop. It pays to go with a local solar company. ”

“The story of Why We Went Solar all comes back to a good investment strategy plus adding value to our home. After having some concerns about the aesthetics of solar panels and how that would impact the look of our home we upgraded our panel choice and really like the results. Plus Golden Bear worked with us to find the most ideal placement for both efficiency and aesthetics.”

“The reason Why We Went Solar was of course to help the environment, but we also wanted to reap the benefits of monthly real-world cost savings. We experienced immediate savings on our energy costs that more than made the investment in solar worth it ”

“There are many positive reasons for installing solar on your home, but the reason Why We Went Solar was because not only did we want to help eliminate the use of fossil fuels but we wanted to make an investment for our future. Being retired we wanted to hedge our bet against the rising costs of PG&E and the uncertain utility industry.

“With disappointing changes in PG&E, the fires in California and the seemingly monthly increases in my power bill, that is Why We Went Solar. That’s where I found Golden Bear Solar. I was able to put a system in without any out of pocket expense and take advantage of the 30% tax credit before it expired. On top of that, it’s going to help save the planet, so there was no reason I wouldn’t do it.”

“Going green was my main reason Why We Went Solar, but there are many more reasons like powering future technology like electric cars. Golden Bear Solar made it super easy my system and really impressed me with their responsiveness and communication.”
Jeff

“The PG&E bill was exorbitant. My bill was very high and I needed to to something about it. You guys were the third company I had out here. Every time the others suggested an option to me they presented an agreement that was only going to save me roughly $80 per month. I wasn’t interested in that. I wanted to save more than that. You guys set the expectations correctly and got it done.”
Abodoulaye
San Jose Ca
“I went solar for two reasons. Mainly my bill was getting higher and higher, so that was the number one reason. Number two was that I basically want to be on the clean side. This is California. We all want to be part of the clean energy movement. So that was part of it too.”
