About Blue Raven Solar

Blue Raven Solar offers solar power technology services. The company prioritizes a simple, straightforward process by helping customers every step of the way, including creating the designs, filling out the appropriate permits and installation.

What is Blue Raven Solar?

Blue Raven Solar provides homeowners with a simple and affordable way to buy the best solar technology and own their solar power systems without leasing from a third party.

The company designs a system for your home, obtains permits and installs the components. Most installations are complete in one day. For those with qualifying credit scores, there are no upfront installation costs and power is free for the first 18 months. Blue Raven customers will save an average of $20,000 to $80,000 on electricity costs over 20 years, according to the company.

Blue Raven Solar uses the latest solar panel technology, including black-on-black, monocrystalline silicon solar panels and Enphase microinverters. All Blue Raven solar plans include a smart thermostat and LED lighting for your home. Blue Raven comes with a 25-year panel guarantee and a two-year production guarantee. The company also provides free system monitoring.

How does Blue Raven Solar work?

The Blue Raven Blue Power Plus plan combines the concept of a power purchase agreement (PPA) with the benefits of solar ownership. Qualified customers pay $0 upfront and get free power for 18 months. The loan agreement lets the homeowner own the solar panel system while paying it off over time and keeping 100% of the power savings. Monthly payments and interest rates do not increase during the life of the loan, and there is no prepayment penalty.

A consultant from Blue Raven Solar will talk with you over the phone about your options. Installations are customized to take advantage of the most ideal location for the solar panels and other components. The company also helps with obtaining permits. Once the design is complete and proper permits are in place, installation takes one day in most cases.

How much does Blue Raven Solar cost?

Blue Raven Solar’s cost varies based on the size of installation. The company does not provide specific pricing on its website, but potential customers can call or fill out a form to be contacted by a representative for a free consultation and information about pricing.

Qualified customers pay $0 upfront and get 18 months of free solar power. The cost of the system is financed over time with a loan. Monthly payments and interest rates are fixed for the life of the loan.

Our salesman, John, was very informative and made sure we understood every aspect of purchase of the solar panels as well as helping us pick the best package available. The installation group was exceptionally professional and quick on installing the panels. They also cleaned up the inside and outside where there was anything that needed to be picked up or wiped off. They checked with us when they got there as well as when they left. They also took the time to review what they installed and how we could monitor each panel on an app. Exceptional group of people. We will highly recommend Blue Raven to our friends and relatives.

    The Blue Raven representative answered all my questions and took my doubts out of installing solar power to my house on his presentation. He explained everything in detail on how the whole process was going to be like. Everything ran smoothly through the preparation phase with my HOA and the city. Once everything was complete and I received approval from my HOA, Blue Raven scheduled the installation portion of the project. Due to the adverse weather, they were not able to come out until the following day. It took two-days to complete the installation. Eric and his crew were very professional and answered all my questions. They cleaned up all trash around my residence at the end of each work day. Now, just waiting for the electron on Monday to ensure things are running to standard and for the city to inspect the work.

    Bit of a long process due to some extra work that needed to be done in my situation, but overall it was great. The install itself was very quick and everyone was very friendly and communicative. Would recommend this company. The incentive program is Also very good, as is the tax credit you receive.

    Honest review is, installation was scheduled. Received a call the Friday before a Wednesday installation saying the installation team had a commitment that couldn't be moved and that would force our installation to shift out to the following Friday. Seemed as if the prior commitment was more important than our previously scheduled install. That was annoying and concerning both at the same time.

    Upon arrival, the install team was fast and seemed to knock out the install without much issue. Left some trash laying around, and a box on the roof, but overall, I'd rate the install at a B to B+. That said, it hasn't rained yet, so we are anxiously biting our nails to see if when we get rain, if there are any leaks. Fingers crossed and praying there are not any leaks. Haven't been able to engage the system yet, currently awaiting inspection and Rocky Mountain Power to change out the home electrical meter.

    BRS thus far has been great to work with. Their design and permit applications went quickly, and most of the waiting has been for the power company or the AHJ. Once we received approvals, they were quick to get me on their schedule within a couple of weeks. The morning of the install the crew arrived 30 mins early and got started quickly. Within 5 hours I had a complete new solar system installed and commissioned and ready for final inspection. I was blown away by how well Levi led his crew and how Kyle and Andy worked quickly and professionally to get it done quickly and get it done right.

    When I started the process I pointed out to the salesman providing the quote and to the on-site inspector that my electrical panel was already full. They made sure to document this and the engineers accounted for it in their plans by utilizing tandem breakers. Andy knew what was needed and was able to easily integrate the solar double pole breaker into my existing panel without need to upgrade my panel or adding a sub-panel.

    I still need to wait for a final inspection with the county and then final approval from the utility company to connect, but feel that BRS will be on the ball as they have been to get me connected quickly! Each time I've reached out to ask a question I was able to get ahold of the right representative and got my questions answered.

    Blue Raven for solar panels. While there was a delay with HOA, everything ran smoothly. All the crew was great: they worked hard, they were competent, friendly, and very professional. I believe that the attitude of the workers is a reflection of management and I conclude that things are running well up top. The product is excellent and I am very pleased.

    The Blue Raven crew was super nice to work with - from sales personnel to installation crew. The installers were so personable, knowledgeable, considerate and neat! It was encouraging to me that the guys I talked to the most also used solar panels on their homes. They answered all my questions. We are really looking forward to using solar energy to reduce our energy bills.

    Our installation of 43 solar panels was excellent! The crew was on time every morning, finished the job in the 3 day timeframe that was expected, and everyone was very courteous and respectful.

    It was an awesome experience! They did a great job and worked hard to make sure everything was just right for the installation. From beginning to end, they were super friendly, easy to work with, and worked efficiently throughout the process to get our panels up and going way sooner than we thought we’d get them! All of the guys on the crew were super respectful and easy going, but they knew how to get things DONE! Easily one of the best crews I’ve ever done business with.

    The crew that did my install was fantastic. They were friendly and polite and definitely knew what they were doing. They completed a two day job in one for my install! I watched them during the job on my house and they were very good with their team work. Especially the electrician, he was very creative in designing the placement of the box and running all the electric lines almost like they're not there. He made a point of getting me involved, also with positioning the solar panels on my roof which they ended up changing.
