Smart Solar Energy is a family-owned solar contractor that specializes in residential solar installations. With multiple offices in Oregon and Washington, we serve customers across the Pacific Northwest.

Since 1995, we've installed over 14,362 solar systems and counting! All of our installations are done in-house and we have impeccable customer reviews on various platforms online (Google, BBB, Energy Sage, Yelp).

We will always treat you with honesty, respect, and stellar customer service. All of our expert solar technicians are industry licensed, factory-trained, and factory-certified. We stand by our work and want you to feel smart when you purchase solar from us. All of the work performed on your solar system is 100% guaranteed.

We back up our work with the best guarantees in the Pacific Northwest:

- 25 Year Platinum Service and Labor Warranty

We offer a 25 year warranty on all labor and services performed. Any required repairs will be performed at our expense. This is in addition to all of your solar system’s factory warranties.

- 25 Year Power Production Guarantee

Every solar system’s power production decreases over time, but our German engineered panels only decrease by 8% over a 25-year span. If system production falls below that threshold, we’ll compensate you with cash.

- 25 Year Solar Panel and Inverter Warranty

Your entire solar system comes with an industry-leading 25-year factory warranty. This covers every aspect of your solar panel installation.

- 24/7 Real Time Monitoring

Our monitoring staff reviews performance data on every system we’ve installed on a monthly basis. Our team will monitor your system’s performance to ensure the system is producing as designed. Every client receives their own personal monitoring portal, so our clients can track their system’s performance data as well.

- 15 Year Project Management Support

Smart Solar Energy is with you every step of the way. Your solar system comes with 15 years of project management support. We’ll take care of the incentive programs and payments, supply all the information necessary for your tax documents, and communicate with your tax professional. We’ll also support you during the home appraisal process and assist you when you sell your home.

We strongly urge you to do your research. If you can’t find another solar dealer that offers these same guarantees, make the smart decision and request one of our proprietary Residential Solar Audits today!

Smart Solar Energy answered questions via Zoom, phone and in person. They provided all the answers to our questions, provided suggestions and recommendations, and made sure we understood what was happening every step of the way. The installation went smoothly and we are up and running. There is customer service which is very responsive, and everyone was cheerful and friendly, even the two installers who were out in the pouring January rain and wind. We have had solar before, and are very impressed with Smart Solar Energy's performance.

Fantastic experience

I had a wonderful experience. They were honest and transparent about everything. They had a substantially lower price than our other bids and had excellent responsiveness. Would recommend to anyone interested in solar for their home.

A Great Company for Solar

I contacted Smart Solar after searching for a Company in my area. >Approved in Oregon by the Trust >Uses quality equipment made in America >Has a 25 year warranty on the complete installation They explain everything and used top notch software to get the solar numbers that worked for me. Sent a guy to my house to make assessments and install data. Handled all the permits and inspections. Walked me through everything and listened to my ideas and thoughts of the system. Did a profession job with Electricians and solar installers. Contacted the Power Company for my job. Answered all my questions in a timely manner via email. Very Professional company. I would give them a 10 if I could.

I'm a happy Smart Solar Energy of Oregon Customer!

We recently added solar panels to our home. We found Smart Solar, and boy am I glad we did. From the very first conversation with them, they were professional, they did what they said they would do, and every promise that was made was fulfilled. Jenn was our project manager. She kept me informed every step of the way; she even took care of any paperwork needed for available incentives! If you're considering adding solar to your home, make sure you contact Jenn at Smart Solar Energy of Oregon. Her number is 503-694-4600. Tell her Tina sent you, and prepare yourself to be very taken care of.

Excellent Company to work with .

Smart Solar was so amazing all the way through the process start to finish including all permitting with the city and state. I had concerns about this process from reading about other solar companies, but these guys came through. From sales, to cost, to explaining the process everything went well, and it looks great. I spent many days researching different Solar companies in my area and narrowed it down to three which all provided the same Solar Panels and Inverters. The reviews for Smart Solar is what set them apart from the other two. Also, the price and service warranty is better with Smart Solar. Jordan, Taylor, Jen and all of the technicians were very professional and answered all of our questions. I have recommended them to our family and neighbors.
