Why Choose Southern Energy Management?

We had Southern Energy Management install a solar system on our house in Raleigh and went live in April of 2019. They did a great job: explained things well, guided us through the application and rebate process, did the installation on time and on budget, and were in all ways a pleasure to deal with. The system is functioning as expected, and we are very pleased.

SEM was really fantastic throughout the whole process! I had received another quote from Brio and wanted a second opinion so I called SEM and they came out and did a site review. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and upfront with the total cost and I was particularly impressed with the fact that they did not try to push me into buying the system unlike Brio. The installation took a little longer than I had hoped but that was mainly because it was during Christmas and the New Year. They made sure that I was prepared to apply for the Duke Energy rebate right on time and have been great with communication since the installation. So far we are enjoying a great solar array! Thanks!

These folks did a great job installing my solar panels and Tesla POWERWALL. It was a difficult installation due to the design of the house but they worked through each challenge and provided a great finished product. Follow up and communication after the install has been stellar. I would recommend then to anyone. The system is working as expected and is providing great value!

If you are interested in Solar Energy this is the company you want to do business with. Every member of their team is top notch, they answer all of your questions and they stand behind their product and services. What more can you ask for? Highly recommended!

I can't say enough good things about the folks at SEM. We installed a 10kw system with Tesla Powerwalls back in July. Every piece of the process - sales, project management, install, support - was top notch. You can tell by talking to anyone there that solar is not only their job but also their passion. Highly recommended!

Had a great experience with Southern Energy! they were very easy to work with, very professional and project management was great. They were diligent in making sure that we were signed up for the Duke rebate. Would strongly recommend.

My experience with Southern Energy has been incredibly positive. I had started working with another contractor initially and after doing some more research ended up dropping them and reaching out to Southern energy. I'm glad I did and every step of the process has gone smoothly. It is a fairly long, cumbersome process but they seem to do quite a bit to make it as simple as possible. I now have a fully functional system that is delivering at or above the promised level of performance. Everyone I've worked with, from sales to project management to installer, has been professional and helpful. I even had a guy from the rebate team return an email (from home) on Christmas Day! So I strongly recommend anyone with a roof that gets quite a bit of sun call SEM and get a solar estimate!

Southern Energy Management installed a solar system at our home this past fall, and the experience was terrific from start to finish. First, I interviewed four different companies. SEM's representative was by far the most forthright about what could be done. Others tried to sell me a system that was inadequate for my house, but MORE expensive than the one we ended up with. Second, the installation team was courteous and friendly to a person. Finally, the follow-up has been very professional. The SEM team coached us through the process of applying for the Duke rebate; they taught us how to monitor our system; and they, too, monitored the system to make sure it was working well. In sum, SEM is a thoroughly professional company that cares about its customers and works hard WITH you to achieve an outcome that you will be happy with.

We hired Southern Energy Management to design a solar system for our home. I cannot say enough good things about this company. I would absolutely hire SEM again and recommend them to anyone interested in solar.I was originally concerned that our home may not be suitable for solar based on orientation and available square footage. They listened to our concerns and answered all our questions. SEM was able to design a system around our physical constraints and even provided us with various options.Everyone we communicated with was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. The installers were respectful and courteous. The project manager we worked was thorough and detailed. The energy specialist educated us on solar and designed a system that was conducive to our homes needs. The bookkeeper was patient and understanding when one of our payments was lost in the mail. Anytime I needed information or a question answered, someone was always an email or phone call away.We are 100% satisfied with SEM and with our solar installation.

Recently added to PV panels. Job was completed as scheduled with SEM taking care of all paperwork associated with Duke Energy. Follow-up was completed to ensure everything was working properly especially the monitoring application. Crew was extremely knowledgeable , courteous, and professional. All in all, everything one could expect was done. Would have no reservations recommending SEM highly.

I spoke with Mike about the possibility of using solar panels to get power to a small barn we are going to have. Although he wasn't in our area, he still educated us on solar energy and its benefits. This is exactly what we needed and it feels good to have someone who is willing to help!

20:04 26 Nov 18

This is our second time working with this company. They are extremely knowledgeable. All the staff are friendly and courteous. Their work is top-notch and extremely professional.

If you've been considering going solar, do it by the end of 2018!So I got quotes from 4 solar companies--and after all this research, it became obvious to me that the best choice was Southern Energy Management. Here are my reasons:1. They were the only company that told me that they would GUARANTEE the current Duke Energy Rebate for installing solar. Everyone else told me they hoped I would get it, but they could not guarantee it (it would be at my own risk to assume I would get it). Southern Energy Management said that if I did not get the rebate, they would refund me the money that I would have gotten for the rebate.2. They use Solar Edge monitoring (see included image which is a screenshot from my phone) so I can monitor my energy input/output/use. They are not the only company that has this, but some of them do not have this monitoring.3. They had the lowest price! The most expensive quote I got was $8000 more than the quote from Southern Energy Management! That's a HUGE difference. It pays to do your homework and get more than one quote.4. They are a local business that has been around since 2001. They aren't going anywhere--and they have a business model that is not just based on solar alone. This is helpful because solar becomes more and less popular based on current tax incentives and rebates. Half of their business is doing building certifications for new construction (on their energy efficiency and whatnot). So even when the solar rebates/tax incentives are lower, they will still be in business.5. They were the only company I remember that also GUARANTEED our solar performance. They give us an estimate of the performance with our initial quote. So if our installed panels don't perform as well as they expect, they will replace the panel(s) or pay us the difference (I can't remember the exact terms of the guarantee).They have been great to work with and I highly recommend them. So now is the best time in history in NC (so far) to install solar because there is both a huge rebate from Duke Energy (ours was $4,560) AND the federal tax credit of 30% of the cost. So our net (out of pocket) cost for our system was about $12,000. We personally chose to do a 2-year same as cash financing they offered and are setting aside $500 each month so when our 24 months are up--We have the $12,000, plus the rebate money from Duke ($4650) and the Federal tax credit (about $6700). So our energy bill is drastically reduced during this time (and beyond)--so some of the savings from our solar panels are literally helping pay for the cost of the system! Eventually, the system will have more than paid for itself (I'm thinking 7-10 years, depending on the performance of our system and how much Duke Energy raises electricity costs over those years).We get net metering through Duke Energy, which means that credits we send to the grid can be used later at at 1:1 ratio. They reset the credits every year in May, so you don't want to over produce, because they won't pay you for the excess energy if you produce way more than you use. Southern Energy Management helped us determine the best size system for our home after reviewing our electric bills.So I talked to an employee at Southern Energy Management yesterday and he said that through the end of 2018 they can still GUARANTEE the Duke Energy rebate. So if you've been thinking about going solar, I would recommend you do it now! Also, they told me that if you tell them that I referred you, that you get $250 off your system as well (just give them my name-Tamara)!

We had a great experience with Southern Energy Management. Every member of the team is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They took care of all the paperwork with Duke Energy and Durham County, and provided the instructions and paperwork we needed to apply for the rebate with Duke Energy. Our system looks great and we love our low electric bills. Special kudos to Graham Alexander, who answered all our questions, gave us expert advice, and seamlessly guided the process from start to finish. We highly recommend this company.

Nothing but good things to say about Southern Energy Management and my solar installation. From the initial sales contacts through planning and installation to final turn-up and performance monitoring, Southern Energy was outstanding. Highly recommended!

If you want a professional installations of solar for your house - you need not look anywhere else than Southern Energy Mgmt. Graham and his solar team made my installation so easy from beginning to producing my own energy. I picked Southern Energy to do my install based on their long history & experience in the industry . The installation crew headed up by Rich were top notch and professional. Total install took 3 days and then I was up and producing energy. Kelly my project coordinator communicated with me at every stage and was a pleasure to work with and all the staff returned my emails almost immediately if I had questions. The Solar-Edge monitoring system lets me see in real time how my solar panels are working and and I like being able see how much CO2 emission is saved by my solar panels. I feel confident that 20 years from now - I'll be able to depend on Southern Energy to be there if I need them. Thank you Solar Team! Gwen Belcredi

Great company to work with. Process was very clear and well-organized. They handled all the permits and paperwork flawlessly.

My wife and I decided it would be nice not to have an electric bill when we retire (about 2 years from now). We did our research and landed on Southern Energy Management. Everything from their initial evaluation of our property, to their proposal, to the completed job has been first class. We cannot praise them enough. If you are seriously considering going solar, you won't do better than SEM. We have since bought a 3-year old Nissan Leaf and have eliminated 80% of our gasoline usage (still have our Toyota Camry for trips over 85 miles). And best of all, we are not even paying for the electricity to charge the car.

James R.

16:03 28 Sep 18

The folks at SEM were patient, helpful, and professional. They worked with me until they could design a system that met my needs. I highly recommend!

Jeff G.

15:19 14 Sep 18

Southern Energy was great to work with. We just completed building a new home with solar planned in from the beginning. Southern Energy provided great advise and assistance with design and planning. Installation was completed on time and they have been very responsive to any questions we've had. The SolarEdge online monitoring system works great and it's fun to watch power production and consumption rates throughout the day.

13:59 05 Sep 18

Graham Alexander and all the team at Southern Energy Management did an excellent job placing solar panels on our house, working with Duke Energy to get a rebate and also getting the federal tax credit. Kelley was always prompt, pleasant and efficient as was the team on site. I have referred a number of friends to Southern Energy so they can enjoy investing in solar and getting the long term benefits.

Jack C.

02:28 04 Sep 18

A+. Smart. Nice. Work very hard. Tell the truth and then do what they promised. Easy to talk with them; they return mail/phone calls on weekends! They actually behave, not just talk, as a TEAM. I would not shop for price on a $30K investment with a life of 25 years. Nonetheless I think their competence justifies every dollar; I did not find their price non-competitive.

Awesome service! Absolutely LOVE my new solar installation!!

Brayden Z.

23:01 30 Jul 18

We had a 17kW system put in back in February of this year. It has been amazing coming close to 100% renewable energy for our house. And the panels look awesome. The crew at Southern Energy (Thanks Kelley, Graham, Brinson, Davison and all the other folks we worked with!) did a great job installing and making it look like the panels belong there. I’m looking forward to the day when the roof is the solar panel, and it has the same or higher efficiency as what we just had installed. I can’t recommend Southern Energy Management enough!

Warren K.

12:17 26 Jul 18

Just got my solar system installed - great people, very professional communication and installation - by far the best of the 3-4 companies I contacted, and their quote was the best too. Highly recommended!

Excellent contractor in every way!

Rebecca P.

11:45 06 Jul 18

Southern Energy Management demonstrated that they're a skilled and knowledgable solar installer. From my first interaction with Graham, they showed that they understand solar energy and met all of my requests. Kelley and the Project Management team were very organized and kept me well informed throughout the permitting and planning process. Then, Sam and his installation crew continued the great service with a careful and professional installation. I would highly recommend Southern Energy Management for their knowledge, professionalism and skill. Thank you to Southern Energy Management for my new solar system, which is performing exactly as expected.

Dawson R.

15:09 05 Jul 18

I purchased a 6KW system from Southern Energy Management in December 2012 and it went live in February 2013. David Churn was my sales representative and he did a great job of working with my wife and I. The installation team was very professional and was always on time and kept the area clean. We reduced our energy bill over 60%. The app to track usage also alerted me to a problem with our heating system by showing the increased usage during a cold spell.The only delay in the project was due to Duke-Carolinas getting out to certify the system.I highly recommend SEM.

David M.

17:49 04 Jul 18

After getting quotes from several local solar installers and then waiting till the time was right for us we went with Southern Energy Management. The process went very smoothly and Graham was able to address all of our concerns and demands with a system that meets our needs. I'd recommend them to anyone interested in exploring solar!

Brandon M.

18:00 29 Jun 18

Everyone we dealt with at Southern Energy was very friendly and very professional, from the first consultation and estimate through the install and orientation. Help our environment and make a smart investment in solar panels!

if Southern Energy Management had ten stars i would have to rate them above that. great company to do business with. had several companies come out to give estimates and found out Southern was the best on price and knew they were not out to sell me short. the installation crew were excellent. not one bad word out of their mouths and enjoyed working together no matter what needed to be done. John Conklin my sales rep. explained everything that would be done how it would be done and the time frame it would be done. and it was done as he said. also Kelly at corporate that headed up my project was the same. she kept me informed on what was happening and the timing of when it would be done also. i knew what my system would cost and there was no up sales involved of anything i did not need. the other companies tried to sell me on stuff i did not need and said it was included in the price of their low cost system. but i soon found out i would be paying big time for it. my system is working great and doing what they said. the inspectors that came out said that i had a top notch installation and that it was the best they had seen. the tech that came out to change out my meter was really impressed with the way my system looked and asked many questions about who installed it. he said he has seen a lot of fly by night companies come through and have really ripped people off. every question he had i had the answer for. he said Southern informed me well about solar energy. check into Southern if you are looking for a great company with great people and has been in business to know whats going on. one day im gonna ride down and check out the company first hand to meet the ones i talked to on the phone.

I’m very pleased with the team at Souhern Energy Management (SEM), from the conceptual design of my system through the installation and setup. It’s been a very positive experience. Although my house is a 3 hour drive from their office, SEM provided great support during the presale design process, onsite survey and engineering design, and a very efficient and professional installation. The installation crew was a pleasure to work with. The system is performing exactly as proposed. I’m eagerly awaiting my backordered Tesla Powerwall to add to the configuration.

Joel D.

02:04 29 Apr 18

The entire experience working with SEM was seamless. Graham and the entire staff were amazing and always followed up on any questions or concerns. They showed up when they said they would, cleaned up behind themselves. Very easy to recommend them to anyone looking to go solar.

Chris O.

20:17 24 Apr 18

My experience with Southern Energy Management for home installation of 16 solar panels could not have been more seamless. Start to finish the process was handled seamlessly between front office staff, sales people and on-the-ground workers. Installation itself only took 1.5 days. I am very satisfied with the service and my new energy producing panels.

Neftali S.

15:50 17 Apr 18

Very knowledgeable staff helped us understand Solar Energy production. They did a clean, efficient and tidy installation. They helped every step of the way with paperwork and permits. Handled the interface with Duke Energy well. We were up and running ahead of schedule, so our contribution to the environment is underway! Thank you SEM!

Karl K.

16:32 05 Apr 18

We are more than happy with the whole experience of having solar installed from Southern Energy, from the initial consultation to follow up meetings after the installation. They were never pushy during our initial inquiries and always available to answer questions. Now the panals are up and running and we are enjoying getting all our power from the sun!

Simon E.

16:27 29 Mar 18

SEM completed my first project with them in 2010. I just had another great experience with them on my new house in Downtown Raleigh. They did a great job, communicated well with the General Contractor and Architect, and kept on top of the schedule. I'm still a very pleased customer!

Scott P S.

17:54 20 Mar 18

My second installation with Southern Energy Management - another successful project! The house on the left was built in 2010, certified Gold under NAHB Green Building program. SEM did the rating, and provided/installed both PV and Solar Thermal which powered both domestic water heating and a radiant heat floor. That home has a HERS score of 7.I just completed construction of a new home next door and SEM was the only contractor I even considered for my solar because the first experience was so good. They didn't disappoint this time either. They worked well with my GC, and kept things on schedule. They were quick to answer questions, and helpful in every way. I definitely recommend them every chance I get!

Scott S.

19:52 19 Mar 18

SEM did a good job for us. The sales experience was informative and low pressure, the price was fair, and the installation was tidy, professional, and timely. Also, they handled all the interconnection paperwork with zero issues. The explanation of the components and the monitoring platform after the installation was complete was somewhat cursory, but that's a minor area for improvement against what was overall a very good experience. Would recommend.

Jeff W.

17:38 16 Mar 18

My experience in working with the Southern Energy Management team has been great. The team kept in constant contact with us throughout the entire process from the installation of the Solar panels prior to home closing, providing updates on the rebate program, and system orientation and overview. The Solar Edge app works great as well to help keep tabs on how Solar Energy is coming in and out of the home.

Landon F.

23:04 05 Mar 18

Working with southern energy was a great experience and I would recommend them to anyone looking to install a solar system. The installation went very smoothly and their team was focused on making sure the installation was very clean and done correctly. I've had the system for 6 months now; we have had zero problems, and I still love checking the energy output each day, and watching our energy bill drop by %90 is nice too!

Jay J.

13:38 28 Feb 18

We had a great experience with Southern Energy Management. The evaluation visit was excellent, installation painless, and now we are making electricity! We found the whole experience to be easy and professional. Highly recommend the people and their product.

Southern Energy installed 18 bi-facial panels and custom solar structure to create a shade structure over my deck. In addition, they installed the inverter and coordinated with Piedmont Electric Co-op. The only major mishap was the breaking of an all glass panel during install. They pulled it out and ordered a replacement immediately, but it did delay the project by a week and a half or so.Though the install took a bit longer then twice as long as scheduled, they did get the job done within 3 weeks. It was a custom install in tight quarters. So, the extra time was half expected.They did a great job with handling the paperwork and inspection. I’ll continue to use Southern Energy for future projects, such as my Powerwall install.

Matthew K.

19:48 30 Jan 18

Southern Energy did what they said they would do (actually, even a bit more), at the price that was quoted, in the timeframe that was quoted. The installers were professional and courteous. Couldn't be happier.

Matt H.

15:09 23 Jan 18

Very professional and easy to work with.

Ed T.

13:48 23 Jan 18

Excellent company with extremely qualified people. They helped me throughout the process, were exceptionally professional/knowledgeable, and offered the best price with the most advanced equipment. Could not be happier.

14:37 18 Jan 18

No joke here, Southern Energy really gets 5 stars on our install. They installed a 16.5kw solar system on our house about a year ago. Graham Alexander, our salesman was able to engineer a system that allowed us to generate power when the grid is down and gladly accommodated the battery system we supplied. He worked with us to meet our specifications and expectations. The system they engineered reached their expected annual production guarantee after 10 months give or take a few days. We are overproducing by a wide margin and expect to get a check from Duke/Progress for about $700 at the end of our year for the over production. Yep... the power company is paying us.Their installation crew was spot on with roof mounting and hole sealing. We've had no leaks at all. Our basement is quite industrial in nature and their crew's conduit work is like a piece of art. They supplied an egauge internet connected metering system that shows all usage and production. Several friends have bought solar systems and none included this metering system. Using this meter we were able to chase down some loads in the house and reduce usage. It's also nice to show off how much the system is making on my iphone.Southern Energy is an all in one shop meaning that they sell and install. Many of our friends have used other companies that sold the system and jobbed out the work. Invariably they ran into problems with the installers cutting corners and leaving our friends in a lurch. Nothing of the sort with Southern Energy... they are spot on.A little background about our system. We have a farm and are the last house on the line. We frequently have power outages which often last a few hours. The power company will send a text message telling us the power is out and should be on soon. As comical as it now is, the first time this happened, we'd been watching TV when the text message came and looked around to realize that the ceiling fans weren't running... but the TV, computers, and kitchen just kept running. It is great peace of mind to come home and see a few clocks flashing in the house and know that the fridge didn't ever stop running.We have a whole house generator onsite but have not had to use it since this system was installed. The backup system runs about 1/4 of the house and the batteries are recharged by the sun when the grid is down. Additionally one of the grid tie inverters supplied by Southern Energy is able to make 2000 watts of power in the basement to run the freezer down there or sump pump when needed. With the exception of the well pump, we can run indefinitely from solar in a grid down situation.This company really did deliver a great system to us.

Fantastic company! Installed a 6 KW solar PV system on my house five years ago which is working like a charm, saving me money every sunny day. Professional crew, great system.

The team at Southern Energy Management was a real pleasure to work with. Professional, honest, and did great work for a fair price. I'd recommend them in a heartbeat.

Souther Energy Management did a great job with our solar panels. We are really happy. Everything is working well and the installation went quickly.

Valerie L.

These folks are very professional. Worked with me to develop a proposal that meets my requirements. Installation was flawless: they did what they promised when they promised. Their people were very pleasant, respectful of us and our property, very competent and efficient, and great to deal with. We're extremely pleased with the entire process and with the final product. Recommend SEM without qualification.

SEM is a dedicated group of professionals who work very hard everyday at their craft - solar energy and energy saving solutions. They are pioneers in the field and their passion is contagious from their leadership right down to their installers and support staff. True professionals.

Mike R.

18:41 22 Sep 17

I have been very happy with our solar system! The system was installed by wonderful folks, everything was explained well to us, all concerns and questions were well addressed, and a year and a half later they still remain responsive to questions and comments. I love monitoring both our energy use and the power generated by the panels using their app. And of course I love both saving money on power and knowing I am helping our environment.

Ann B.

05:24 25 Aug 17

I was very pleased with the services of Southern Energy Management. I interviewed several companies to install solar panels on our house and I am glad that I chose them. Their price was competitive and all installation and services were completed on schedule. They provided expert information and assistance at all stages of the process. They pointed out that since they were not a solar-only company but also worked in other areas of energy management, their company was more likely to be around for the long haul (for maintenance and service) when federal and state solar tax credits might expire. The monitoring software works well and was worth the extra cost and our solar panels have generated somewhat more electricity in the first year than what they projected. I highly recommend Southern Energy Management for installation of home solar panels.

Paul B.

14:28 08 May 17

I only have good things to say about Southern Energy Management. The sales rep came to our home and gave us a thorough breakdown of our costs and future benefits as well as helping us to understand how to file for tax benefits. Their staff were always easy to get in touch with on the phone if I had any questions and they were courteous and knowledgeable.The set-up crew had to install our array under extreme heat conditions yet they never complained and worked long hours. They were always ready to answer any questions I had and knew about all aspects of the array and its workings. I think when a person hires a contractor of any type that is what is needed: people who show up when they say they will, do the work without complaint or delays, treat the owner with respect, and leave the owner with a good feeling that the work was done well.All in all I recommend Southern Energy Management for its attention to customer service and quality of work.

We were very happy with the entire process from installation, start up, monitoring and even filing our tax returns to get the full tax credits available at the time. Our electric bills are actually negative now.

Outstanding people, service, who use top quality materials. We now make more electricity than we consume. To date we have produced over 4.6 megawatt hours.

We have now had solar for a year and I could not be more pleased with its production, its visible appearance on our roof, and the personal attention which the staff gave us throughout the project. I was especially appreciative of Graham's tenaciousness with Duke energy; they certainly tried his patience.

I have had solar panels installed by Southern Energy for almost three years now. The panels have worked perfectly and cover about 75% of my electricity usage.

SEM was wonderful to work with. They worked with me to tailor their services to meet the needs of my solar project. From the work with their engineers to customer service to the installers ....we found the process smooth, efficient and with significant value add. I highly recommend Southern Energy Management.

just finished installing solar roof panels. very satisfied with SEM every step of the way, from first info visit to post-installation orientation. Every individual we've met or worked with via email has been professional, thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly. No hesitation in recommending SEM!

What a great experience! If you are interested in renewable energy, give Southern Energy Management a call!!! They worked with us to create a Photovoltaic (PV) System that fit our needs. Each member of the Solar Team who worked on our project was extremely professional and friendly. The project was completed before the 90 days originally outlined, and all work was on budget! The Solar Team stayed in contact with us during each step of the process. They were great at answering all our questions. Now we are watching our system increase its production of solar energy and watching our use of energy from the grid decrease. Awesome!
