Albany-Area Homeowners Share How AEC Solar Helped Them Take Control Of Their Energy Costs
Working with AEC Solar was a great experience. Everything moved smoothly, and their team kept us updated at every step. They took the time to walk us through our options and explained why certain products would work better for our home. We chose high efficiency panels and microinverters, and we are already seeing better energy performance. AEC Solar was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. We would definitely recommend them.
It was truly amazing working with AEC Solar to get my solar installation done. From the outset, Lee Evans was there guiding me about what was happening and how things would be done. The installation crew was very professional and did an amazing job and on-time. Arion was very helpful in answering my technical questions and left me at ease knowing my installation was in safe hands. The entire process was seamless and done within the promised period of time. I’d recommend anybody looking to get a solar installation to take a look at AEC.
Lee & his team members did a great job making installation happen in time for summer solar generation without any delays.Met with AEC Solar CEO personally for long term commitment, and Lee did explained in detail about the whole solar project right from quote to final installation. AEC solar provided a great experience for me so far except, financial dept, where communication lags with clients and my refund checks got delayed but they have provided me with estimated date which is due to manufacturer reimbursement.Overall experience was great and I personally recommend AEC.
The staff and customer service at AEC have been friendly and fantastic throughout this process. Just waiting for National Grid to install the net meter to get the system up and running.
Great company. May be a bit pricier than some of the others in the area, but you get what you pay for with the 40 year warranty. Nate W is very knowledgeable and really works with you and your family's needs as well for your home.
Today, AEC wrapped up the installation of all my panels in Chatham, and it went amazingly well! It was definitely a challenge with temperatures below zero, snow, ice, and a bunch of skylights to work around, but AJ made the whole process feel like a breeze. His communication was top-notch—clear, professional, and efficient. The panels look fantastic, and I’m really excited to start saving energy. AJ and his crew was absolutely awesome throughout the entire project!
AEC was great to work with. They were both helpful and responsive. The process was pleasant from beginning to end.
From my initial contact with the AEC salesperson all the way through installation, I found each person in the process thoughtful and professional. And the panels look great on our barn..
We hired AEC to install a 5.5 KW system on our barn. Working with them was easy. They took care of all of the paper work for our rebate. The system is performing at or slightly above predicted performance. The workers were friendly and accommodating. When we noticed a small electrical panel issue several months after the install, the VP of the company drove to our house the next day and fixed it. The monitoring system works great and they are available to answer questions at any time. Couldn’t be happier! And my meter ran backwards all spring!

Our 100% Peace-Of-Mind Guarantee: Lower Payments Or You Don't Pay
AEC Solar knows switching to solar feels like a big step — and most Albany-area homeowners worry, "What if it doesn't actually save me money?" That's why AEC Solar offers a simple promise: if your new plan doesn't deliver lower payments than your current utility bill, you won't be charged. Period. No tricks. No hidden fine print. AEC Solar handles the system, the paperwork, and the maintenance. Your only job is to enjoy the savings.
This guarantee exists because AEC Solar has seen the results again and again predictable bills, protection from rate hikes, and Albany families keeping more of their money where it belongs. With them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I really pay nothing upfront?
Correct — $0 down, nothing due at signing, no deposit, no hidden fees. You get a fully installed solar system and battery backup without spending a single dollar out of pocket. Your first payment doesn't begin until your system is live and generating power. That's it.
How soon will I see savings?
From your very first billing cycle. The moment your system is activated, it starts producing clean energy for your home — which means your next National Grid or NYSEG statement will already be lower than what you're used to paying. There's no waiting period, no ramp-up phase. Day one is day one.
What happens if National Grid or NYSEG raises rates again?
Nothing changes for you. That's the whole point. Your rate is locked at $87/month with a 0% escalator — which means it cannot go up, no matter what the utilities decide to charge. Every time National Grid or NYSEG announces another hike — including the 18% increase already on the way — you're completely insulated. Your neighbors pay more. You don't.
What if the system doesn't actually save me money?
Then you don't pay. AEC Solar backs every plan with a straightforward guarantee: if your new monthly payment isn't lower than what you were paying to National Grid or NYSEG, you won't be charged. No fine print. No loopholes. We've delivered this result for Albany homeowners consistently for 35 years — and we stand behind it completely.
Who handles maintenance and repairs?
We do. Under a PPA or TPO agreement, AEC Solar owns the equipment — which means all monitoring, maintenance, and repairs are our responsibility, not yours. If something needs attention, we handle it. You never get an unexpected repair bill. You just enjoy the savings.
Do I need perfect credit to qualify?
No — but a credit score of 650 or above is required to qualify for the $0 down plan. If you're unsure where you stand, the best first step is to request your free consultation. Our team will review your eligibility quickly and let you know exactly what you qualify for — no obligation, no pressure.
What if my roof isn't brand new?
It doesn't need to be. AEC Solar conducts a full roof assessment as part of the site evaluation before any installation begins. If your roof needs attention before solar can be added, we'll tell you upfront — clearly and honestly — so there are no surprises down the line. Our goal is a system that performs and lasts, which means we only install on roofs that are ready for it.
What happens if I sell my home?
You have options. In most cases, the PPA or TPO agreement can be transferred to the new homeowner as part of the sale — and in many cases, solar actually increases your home's appeal and market value, since the buyer is inheriting a lower energy cost from day one. Our team will walk you through exactly how the transfer process works so you're fully informed before you make any decisions.
