I know solar is a scary thought. Oh no the $$ it will cost, will I get the right setup, is it worth it, etc. Put your concerns aside and let Dean, Tom, James and the rest of the team take care of you. I swear Dean is the most patient (no pressure) sales guy I've ever met. Yo say he is thorough is an understatement. He carefully looks at all information available from the types of systems to the pros and cons of each and tailors them to the individual's requirements. The best part is he doesn't oversell you on things you don't need. In my case I wanted a system to eventually be ready for an electric car. Dean wisely advised not to buy the extra pieces now when they would be of no value to me, but ensured my system would be ready for upgrades when I was ready. Since our initial install we have upgraded our system on 3 occasions, each time carefully planned out to maximize the value of the equipment and to get the best bang for the buck. In short if I could give 10 stars I would. If you are interested in learning about solar give them a call. You won't be sorry. read more

James and his team at Pacific Electric solar have been great to work with. Their work ethic and professionalism is first class. They went above and beyond to answer all my questions and were very transparent and forthcoming with information related to the project. I have an 8.45kw size system. Special requests and project adders include replace broken roof tiles (150 total tiles), special box to house my wifi router and Sense home energy monitor, color match conduit and special routing to avoid key areas. PES is local to Ventura and I have provided solar on many homes in my neighborhood. If I were to assign a grade to this project or would be a 97/100. read more

I can't say enough about this company. I had a deadline I needed the solar installed by and Pacific Electric amazingly met that deadline. I received 2 other quotes and PAC solar beat them both by $1,000 & got me 3 extra panels. I LOVE the way my system looks, I LOVE monitoring my production on my phone, and I LOVE watching my meter run backwards!!!! Special thanks to the owner James who kept me calm throughout the process. To Al who explained everything to me and handled the city inspector like a pro! And to Keri for working her magic with Edison. Such a GREAT team & I highly recommend them! read more

I looked into Solar in 2014 and had gotten 3 estimates. It was not until my DWP bill hit an all-time high of $1,200 did I act upon going "GREEN". I chose my super awesome solar consultant Deanne Dawson and Pacific Electric Solar because of their honesty and integrity. Additionally my neighbor/attorney who had done some highly critical research chose his solar system a year prior with them. I appreciate how Deanne took the time to analyze and discuss all my options. The design I chose was the 11 KW system with LG 320 watt panels and solar edge inverter. I love the fact that I have online monitoring which allows me to see per panel production which offsets my electric bill 100%. The LA City inspector was blown away by the crews quality installation. Needless to say my new electrical panel and solar system passed with flying colors and LADWP turned on my system in 4 weeks. I financed with the PACE Program and was able to add in other energy efficiency's with the Gaco Title 24 roof, Turf (Lawn Kings), Windows and variable speed Pool Pump. My water bill was significantly lowered too. Deanne was instrumental in coordinating some of the other services. Thanks to Deanne Dawson and Pacific Electric Solar for their knowledge & expertise. They took care of the entire process from start to finish! read more

Going Green in Camarillo!!!! Our 10.4 kW Ground mounted array system produced 48kW today... Last month our electric bill was .80 cents after our average SCE bill being $400-425 in the past. Since January our bill has been on average $1.60 a month. I'm sorry it took us so long to take the plunge and put solar in. Dean Kato was very thorough with explaining everything to me and my wife. He was very knowledgable and very professional from start to finish. I totally recommend him and Pacific Electric Solar to everyone that asks. Thanks Dean read more

Going GREEN - saving money - our LADWP bill went from $210 a month to $11 per month! We chose Mitsubishi solar panels and SolarEdge Power Optimizers and opted for a zero down PACE solar loan...our first payment is not due until 15 months after installation! We are so grateful for the expertise and level of service we found at PacSolar. Not only that, the quote was much less than Costco. We got the BEST deal, value and quality at PacSolar. Couldn't be happier - only wish we went solar years ago!!! read more

It has been almost a year since Pacific Electric Solar installed our solar panels. We definitely love having solar. Dean was very informative, helpful, reliable, and communicated with us every step of the way. It was the best decision to work with Dean and Pacific Electric! read more

Plugging into the sun in Gardena! We checked out a lot of solar firms out there, we decided to go with Pacific Electric Solar. We went with the zero down PACE loan, Mitsubishi solar panels and SolarEdge Power Optimize. Our house is a lot cooler with the panels on the roof and our electric bill went from $150 to $10! Our solar consultant Dean Kato walked us through the process and we couldn't be happier, thanks Dean! read more

I am originally from Ventura County and my parents had solar panels on our home while raising 6 kids. Solar really helped our family keep electric costs down. When I moved to Santa Barbara, I wanted to go green here and chose Pacific Electric Solar to do the job. Dean came out to give me an estimate and was very accommodating with my busy schedule and he liked my crazy dogs-lol He answered all my questions about solar panels. Some of the panels I saw in town looked cheap and unattractive, but the SunPower panels I chose were black and looked really nice. My electric bill went from $300 to $10 per month and I don't feel guilty having the air conditioning on all day. Thanks Dean:) read more

We couldn't be more pleased with quality and service from Pacific Electric Solar's product and installation. Two years ago they installed solar panels on our home in Ventura and today they installed our Tessla battery. Service has been superb and we always enjoy a visit from James, owner of the company. They have been patient answering a multitude of questions and we recommend them highly. Call them for a quote or information. You will always learn something and you won't be disappointed. read more

There are a lot of solar companies out there...we chose Pacific Electric because they clearly had experience with large custom homes. With the custom design of our home in mind, they designed a PV system using solar awnings and placed clear solar panels on our patios. Our home is often used for filming so this was very important to us. Everything was on schedule and within budget. Our system was installed in 8 weeks and LADWP activated our system 4 weeks later. Our LADWP electric bill is only $60 every other month now and used to be over $1500. I couldn't be happier with the results and I feel great that my home is being powered by the sun while saving so much money, win win! We highly recommend the team at Pacific Electric Solar!!! read more

I have been a happy customer of Pacific Solar Electric now for almost one year. I solicited several solar companies for my residence and decided to go with Pacific Solar. My first contact with the company was with Dean Kato. Dean is a SOLAR EXPERT and has a complete command of EVERYTHING solar. He immediately sprung into action with aerial photos of my property, acquisition of my Edison bills, and a complete and thorough analysis of my electrical consumption. His expertise with matching consumption with the panels required was spot on. His solar installers were professional, competent, and worked on my cement tile roof with no problems. They even replaced some previously broken tiles ensuring the integrity of the installation. Dean is also an electrician, so they were able to install my EV level II charger in my garage. He also cleaned up some faulty wiring he discovered with my electrical panel. Finally, Dean has a great working relationship with the City of Santa Barbara, and we sailed through the permit process which can be complicated. I highly recommend Pacific Electric Solar to anyone who is contemplating making the leap. I'm very happy with my choice of solar companies and for going solar! read more

We had an AWESOME experience with this company! Very satisfied with the system and installation. And I HIGHLY recommend working with Deanne Dawson! She puts the WOW in customer service! read more

I would highly recommend Pacific Electric Solar. Deanne our salesperson was friendly, honest, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with on this project. The quality and workmanship on our solar install was outstanding, and the installers were hard working and very qualified. We almost went with another company before I contacted Pacific Electric Solar and would have paid almost $8,000 more for their system, which was not as good as the system I finally chose. Call Deanne if you are considering installing solar and you will be glad you did. read more

We just finished our solar project installation with Pacific Electric Solar and are very happy with the service and process. We started the process by getting a proposal from 4 solar companies. I thought that we would receive a very similar proposal and therefore be able to do a direct cost comparison of one company versus another. Interestingly, there was a significant variation between the proposals in terms of the type of panel to be used, the number of panels, the orientation.... and the price. We elected not to proceed with two of the initial companies as they seemed to be small organizations and we were concerned regarding their ability to be available in the future. Between the remaining companies, there was significant difference in the proposals which led to a number of technical questions regarding the impact of the degree of tilt and the way that this impacted the spacing, the orientation of the panels, the cost versus benefits of one panel over another, the effect of being in a saltwater environment as we live near the beach, etc. Deanne Dawson and Pacific Electric answered all these questions as well as to provide references to industry articles which dealt with these issues to back up their recommendations. We elected to go with Deanne's company and she was superb in terms of communication with us as well as coordinating with the larger house remodeling project that was already in process. This coordination was not insignificant and she is to be commended on the extra effort that this involved. In the process, she also recommended installation of a different type of roof than we had initially known about and saved us almost $10,000 from the original estimate. We have and would highly recommend Deanne and Pacific Electric Solar. read more
