Lisa And Dan Bee

The solar panels are great! Olson Solar walked us through everything and everything went smoothly with installation and connecting to the grid. The only downside when we installed was having to wait for installation due to so many people wanting solar from Olson’s but the wait wasn’t long and we’re so happy with it in the end. Solar helps us charge out w electric car and pay our electric bill. Sometimes we have nothing to pay for our electric bill except the monthly electric cooperative fee. We are happy with our choice. I wish we could have put up more panels.

Greg Bremer

Absolutely fantastic service and communication with Olson. We had another company install or 43 panel system (before I knew about Olson Solar) and our experience was awful from day 1. Olson came in and assessed what we had, fixed the other installers errors and had all 43 panels producing as advertised within a few weeks. Friendly staff and very responsive to our needs and questions. They would be my first call if was ever considering solar energy.

Greg Howard Cabin

I needed a new off grid solar system installed on our family hunting cabin in northern WI. I filled out an online form on the internet that said i would get quotes from local solar companies. I received only one quote and that was from Olson Solar Energy. We talked and came up with a plan for my needs. A salesman came up and met with me onsite the week before the installation crew was to arrive to make sure all things would work out. The crew showed up and had all of the major components installed on the first day and left the electrician to make final connections, test out the system and do some training with me for operation on Day 2. Everything went off without a hitch. I am happy with the performance of my system. Great job Olson Solar for outstanding work.

Kristina Stellpflug

We had an excellent experience getting our solar panels and system set up with Olson Solar Energy. There's two sides to this setup, one is the physical installation of the panels and the cabling etc and the other side is the paperwork that needs to be done with the county and inspectors and Xcel Energy. Olson's took care of all of it both sides were taken care of and we really didn't have to do much besides decide we want to do it! Our energy bills are zero for 11 months of the year. It's only in January when there's less sun that we pay a partial bill. I highly recommend working with this local company to get a big savings on your energy bills for many years to come.

I contracted with Olson Solar, they were very professional and all workers knew what to do. They got installed my panels very quickly and they looked great and when we had the worst hailstorm our town had ever seen they were right there to check my damaged panels and get replacements in a matter of days.

The people at Olson Solar were able to answer all of my questions, and they gave me all of the info that I needed to make an informed decision. They made the install process as painless as possible and everything went smoothly. I've had my panels for almost a year and a half and I'm happy with my decision.

Very happy with the professional installation. They handled all the paperwork and permits. They did everything they promised when they sold us the system. Love the phone app so we can monitor the system and it records the power generation of the system. I would recommend them if you’re interested in a solar system.

Olson Solar was great to work with. They were fast and efficient and explained everything to me. While I was able to pay for my panels in cash, the savings I'm seeing in monthly bills is amazing. If you're looking at your electric bill wondering how you're going to pay it, consider solar. They have financing options too!

Let the Sunshine! Olson Solar was amazing from start to finish. The installation process was fully explained, potential benefits were clearly laid out and installation went perfectly. Everyone associated with Olson Solar was friendly and totally customer focused. But perhaps best of all, we've reduced our carbon footprint and we're now producing FREE energy.

It was a great experience having Olson install my solar panels. They were very professional and friendly. They also hook you up to an app on your phone so you and they keep track of your solar system. When the panels were installed I did a survey then. If it is great you don’t mind doing surveys. Oh they are good at answering any questions you have

Randall Johnson Shawano

Great overall experience for me. From the initial meet & greet at my home. The system design, the ability of team Olson to get my license as a power provider, getting permits to hook up to Alliant Electric's grid, and sell excess electricity back to them, the most satisfying part for me. I'm definitely recommending Olson Solar Energy. Randy C. J

Olson Solar Energy was great to work with. They came out and easily explained the best placement for the panels. They offered choices to get " Green" Lending and even helped with receipts for my taxes. Cody, my project manager kept me informed of progress and next steps throughout the process. They have been highly responsive to my follow-up questions. They crew were courteous and prompt and they cleaned up any debris from their job. Olson Solar Energy is the perfect partner for your solar needs.

To me the best thing about Olson Solar Energy is the people! Everyone I have worked with throughout the process was extremely helpful and responded in a timely fashion. We have had our solar for two years now, and if I ever have a problem, I know that I can call them and get the answers I need.

We got our solar panels installed a few years ago and love them! We had a panel go bad last year, contacted Olsen and it was replaced right away. It’s great to see the support years after our purchase!
