Aes proved to be a really good choice to add solar to our home in late 2025. It was a late decision and Aes did everything they could to get our install done in the appropriate timeline to be eligible for all the rebates etc. Im very happy with the installation and I'm looking fwd to low electric bills.
AES was great to work with each step of the way. They were very thorough in explaining the process- including the paperwork and rebates/incentives. Their workers were great during the installation, and their post-install customer service has been amazing as well. I highly recommend AES if you plan on going solar!
Very satisfied with AES. Did a bit of research on companies here in So Illinois went with AES due to the panels, micro inverters, and timeline. They took care of everything, paperwork, permits, inspection. Was planning on waiting till next year, but since the tax rebate is ending the end of this month decided to go this year instead. After all is done with rebates, tax incentives, and clean air credits I’m paying about 15k for a 41k system. The install went smoothly and the wait to get permission to operate went very quick. Thanks
I have been thinking about adding solar for years. I got quotes from several companies. AES provided the best pricing and product. They were able to work with my busy schedule and helped with all the processes making going solar so easy! They have been installing in our area for many years. Going with AES means you get a local company that has your back and is here to assist with any potential issues unlike the fly by night companies that are out for a quick buck. Their team they sent to install was very experienced and professional. It was done in one day! Thank you AES Team for bringing our solar dreams to fruition. We are enjoying the immediate savings! Call them today and tell them Eric sent you! 😁
I highly recommend AES Solar for your solar installation needs. From the beginning to the end of the project, they were very responsive, answered all our questions, and were very easy to work with.
They are very knowledgeable and experienced, and they are using and installing state of the art panels and equipment. We had a small problem with our power box shortly after install, and AES was quick to jump on the problem and resolved it in a timely manner.
