Services
We are full-service, licensed electrical contractors (ROC# 258378) helping you with every stage of your solar panel installation; from determining the size, financing options, and tax incentives, we are your solar partner. Our employees have years of experience and knowledge in the renewable energy industry.
My 6.44 kWh system has now been operational long enough to have some data on its productivity. It has exceeded the projections and has resulted in monthly electric bills for my 4,000 SF residence at around $25. I couldn't be more pleased. The installation process went very smoothly. You and your staff were able to handle the utility company and city approval processes with efficiency.
Arizona Court Again Strikes Down a HOA's Restrictions on Private Property Rights to Use Solar Energy. Arizona has adopted standards which require 15% of the state's energy portfolio to come exclusively from renewable sources by 2025. Solar photovoltaic systems use solar panels made of silicon to convert sunlight into electricity.
Solar power technology, or photovoltaic systems, which convert solar light directly into electricity, have become less expensive and more efficient. A residential solar system can now generate enough electricity to provide all your energy needs. Imagine life with no electric bill! There are many reasons to go solar; save money while you reduce emissions from burning of fossil fuels.
Leasing programs allow a zero down option and payments, almost all of which require annual increases for 20, sometimes 25 years. The increases are justified due to anticipated electric rate increases. The payment increases are guaranteed, the electric rate increases are projected. Your future home buyer will need to qualify to assume the lease and the tax benefits are awarded to the leasing company.

ABCO helped me out with an uninstall / reinstall. Mike M was very responsive to my inquiries. The guys sent to do the work were friendly and worked hard. The pricing was competitive compared to other companies and their response time was quicker too boot!

Our experience with ABCO Solar was first rate. When no one was immediately available to help with our initial questions, Charlie, the company president, took the time to help us. Mike Mildebrandt, the sales technician and project manager who was assigned to us, was phenomenal. Mike gave a clear and very helpful presentation, taking the time to carefully lay out the various options we had and to help us choose what would be best for our own situation. There was no feeling that we were just being sold a package that was not really tailored to us personally. Mike was tremendous to work with throughout

We have been extremely pleased with our in the ground solar panels from ABCO. The savings has been significant. Recently, company employees completed an annual check-up of of our equipment and we haven't experienced any of our issues. Everyone is very competent, friendly and professional. We would highly recommend ABCO! We had our 8.84 wattage system installed in 2016 in north Tucson.

I offer ABCO Solar my strongest possible recommendation. The entire process from initial consultation, design, construction, and final inspection was seamless. ABCO Solar is a professional contractor that delivers superior performance. The system they installed has worked flawlessly for four years. ABCO representatives still routinely contact me to make sure everything is running correctly. Additionally, I live in Patagonia, AZ and they commuted daily to construct my system with no hesitation. Finally, senior company representatives, led by the ABCO Solar President came to my home from Tucson to

I interviewed many of the "big" companies prior to choosing ABCO. The knowledge, timeliness, customer service, PROFESSIONALISM, and INTEGRITY make ABCO outstanding and an excellent choice. My father is an electrical engineer. I had him review the electrical installation and plans and he was IMPRESSED by the HIGH QUALITY of the work and design. The installation was completed with great care to my home. I personally met with Charlie O'Dowd from ABCO and know that his handshake is a promise of EXCELLENCE and worth more than a bunch of legal agreements. I am so happy with ABCO installation because

Excellent customer service before, during and after the transaction. ABCO made navigating the entire process of permitting and installation easy to understand. After getting 5 quotes from different Solar companies, ABCO clearly stood out as the company to trust with this type of investment. Had a small concern a few months after instal and ABCO quickly addressed the issue to maximize system production. My wife and I highly recommend them to anyone considering solar installation.

My solar PV system was installed on a lease by one of their competitors before I knew about them. When the power monitoring system had repeated problems, the leasing company said it had to be redesigned (at their expense). The original installer wanted about $1200 for the modification so the leasing company shopped around and found ABCO would do the job for $450.
They were prompt scheduling an appointment and showed up on time. Did the job efficiently and professionally. Good price and good work. What more can one ask?
P.S. I probably paid the competitor too much for the original installation

My interactions with these guys is limited to on the road. Was driving down speedway and one of their trucks was in the center lane. However, he was pervasively over the line into the left lane causing road hazards for everyone else with his giant truck and trailer. Will not ever do business with these guys.
