Don designed a system for my home and handled all of the details through to completion. Recently I was contacted by one of his employees because a component of the system had failed or was underperforming, and they wanted to come replace it while still under warranty. I would never have known about the issue but Don was still monitoring system performance, 3+ years after install. I recommend Powell Energy & Solar.

Big purchases make me NERVOUS, but we knew this was something we wanted to do for the environment and because of the potential for savings long-term. Don welcomed our multitude of "stupid questions" (said by me, NOT him) and was considerate of the fact that we are/were nervous newbies. Don provided us with good resources and didn't just ask us to take his word.
Also, going solar is a multi-step process! Don is will you at each step of the way and provides support months after the system has been installed (which I greatly appreciate since I'd be lost without the guidance). Don provides step by

Looked around talked to a few companies and Found Powell Energy and Solar after a friend recommendation, a pleasure working with the owner and designer of solar systems rather than a salesman who had to call for my questions to be answered who was just interested in the sale where Don answered them on the spot and was more interested in a satisfied customer. Was there for electrical and building inspections that went well and a Huge Smile was on my face when I saw my meter spin backwards when the system was turned on when just before it was spinning forward slower than it spun backwards.

I want to recommend Powell Energy and Solar. They have designed and installed 10 solar systems for our group of investors. Powell got the job done on time and took care of all the paperwork and details. Through the use of innovative systems, the solar systems produce more electricity than estimated. They also take care of any warranty work as their warranty states. If anything goes wrong, they are right there to correct the problem and get the system back working 100%. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
I am a CPA and meet with a lot of people who are looking to go solar. I always recommend

Powell Energy installed solar panels on the roof of my house. He did a great job. His price was competitive. The job was done on time. It looks great and operates as expected. Don did an excellent job of helping me navigate the regulatory waters. He made sure that I got my 30% tax credit, and that I am able to sell solar SREC credits. Powell Energy also installed ground-mounted and roof-mounted solar panels at my church. He did a great job there too. On this job there were numerous design changes initiated by the church. Don was exceedingly creative and flexible and patient.

Don Powell and his team at Powell Energy and Solar LLC have been, and continue to be, a tremendous resource for our congregation at St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Medford, NJ. I cannot overstate how impactful Don's guidance, expertise and patience have benefitted our Parish and the environment. Please contact me if I may be of further assistance or recommendation. But more importantly, call Don, it'll be the best decision you make regarding your energy needs.

Powell Energy and Solar designed and installed the solar project for our home in Avalon, New Jersey. Their team went above and beyond to see that everything was properly done from start to finish. They were responsible for doing a proper energy audit and making sure our house was prepared for all seasons. They were responsible for calculating our energy needs. They were responsible for seeing that all grant and certification applications were done correctly. They helped us to locate financing in the days when banks did not understand the concept of 'solar' energy. There was never any hesitation
