Difference: Expertise and Service It turns out most of the solar companies have the same equipment (panels, inverters, batteries, etc), so I was focused on the level of service I’d receive. Modern Electric uses AI in different parts of their business, like support, and humans for super specific questions.

Smart guys It was great talking to their team, who seem super professional. Some of them used to be in tech, banking, and consulting— I felt more secure with their level of professionalism for this reasons.

Online was easy low-pressure I opted for a video call on Zoom because I’m busy with work, and to be honest I didn’t want to feel any pressure with someone in my house. This was really convenient for my wife and I, the call takes about an hour, and I don’t think it could be shorter because they ask a lot of questions. This annoyed me at first, but by the end I was glad they got all the context I needed for a custom solution.

Locked in my rate I felt like a genius because everyone I know got a rate hike on their energy bills, but my rate is locked in. Feels great that I’m helping with clean air… I don’t care about the environment or climate change, blah blah, but if I’m saving, I guess it’s cool!
