Residential Solar
Our residential solar installations transform homes with photovoltaic technology that converts sunlight into usable electricity. This system reduces energy bills while increasing property value through sustainable power generation. Clients benefit from our 20+ years of experience in optimizing system sizing for maximum efficiency based on individual energy consumption patterns and roof characteristics.
Commercial Solar
Commercial solar solutions help businesses transition to renewable energy while achieving significant cost savings. Our systems integrate seamlessly with existing electrical infrastructure to provide reliable power for commercial operations. We specialize in designing scalable installations that meet specific energy demands while qualifying for applicable business energy incentives.
Solar Farms
Solar farm development enables large-scale renewable energy production through ground-mounted photovoltaic arrays. Our expertise includes site assessment, permitting, and grid connection for utility-scale projects. These installations generate clean electricity for communities while providing long-term revenue opportunities for landowners through energy production agreements.

Solar battery storage systems preserve excess energy production for use during nighttime hours or power outages. Our storage solutions ensure continuous power supply while optimizing self-consumption of generated solar energy. The technology integrates with both residential and commercial solar installations to enhance energy independence and grid resilience.
Questions
How do solar panels generate electricity?
Solar panels use photovoltaic cells to convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity, which an inverter then converts to alternating current (AC) for home/business use.
Can solar power reduce my energy costs?
Yes, solar power significantly reduces electricity bills by generating your own renewable energy while qualifying for available state and federal energy incentives.
Is battery storage necessary with solar panels?
Battery storage is optional but recommended to store excess energy for nighttime use and maintain power during grid outages.
What maintenance do solar systems require?
Solar systems need occasional cleaning and performance checks to ensure optimal operation, with quality panels lasting 25+ years with proper care.
What areas do you serve?
We primarily serve Connecticut homeowners and businesses seeking renewable energy solutions from our Milford-based operations.

Shawn Roby and his team are eminent professionals who understand the unique features of Connecticut's solar incentive program for homeowners and building owners far better than large national installers. They listened to my concerns and needs very carefully and crafted a custom financing solution for my rooftop solar project that has yielded the maximum value from day one. And the installation team was super efficient and had the panels and other equipment installed flawlessly in under two days. They are your best choice for residential solar in Connecticut, bar none.

We decided to go with Prime Energy for our solar panels. We are so glad that we did! They are top notch from start to finish. The owner Shawn was fantastic and answered all of our questions. His employees we feel went above and beyond in their work ethic and professionalism. His employees were neat and courteous and even mindful of our dogs! We couldn't be happier and would recommend Shawn and Prime Energy to anyone looking for solar!

I recently bought a house that needed AC and solar. Prime was there to take care of us. The process was streamlined, and the rep was very cool and knowledgeable. At first, I thought what they were proposing was too good to be true, but after seeing everything broken down and now done before my eyes, I can comfortably say that I would recommend them to anyone

Prime energy was a fantastic company to work with. They dressed my needs and my concerns, and matched it with the right product for me. Once we got the utility approvals, they probably installed my system. I would highly recommend them to anybody.

I cannot complain my fiance and I needed a roof and we needed to cut our UI bill in half. They took great care of us. They explained everything too us thoroughly and there were no hidden fees or sketchiness. When the guys came to do our roof they cleaned our gutters and changed out plywood at no additional cost I was very surprised because most companies give a invoice for extra services. They even check up on us to see how we are doing.

I would seriously recommend Prime to anyone who is interested in saving money and being apart of what our new world is. Just take a look around for yourself. Solar panels are in every neighborhood but its your choice to make. If I were you I would choose now. 10yrs from now it will be more expensive.

I was looking for a new roof for my house, and I was recommended by a friend to Prime Solar because of the roof incentive they give. I talked with Dan Wilson, a representative who came over with Eddie who is one of the managers. We talked about how much the roof would cost and we set up a meeting. When they came, they gave me an offer I could not refuse, they offered a solar deal that included a low cost roof.

They were very knowledgeable about the product and were respectful. They were so good that I had to recommend a friend! Service was quick and easy and they were there through the whole process. If anyone in the Fairfield area needs panels or roofing done, call them!

I would definitely recommend using this company to a close friend/ family member and to work with Angel Gonzalez specifically. He supplied a great service that educated me on absolutely everything that was needed to be known about solar power and how the installation process would work, he did everything in a very efficient manner and was extremely respectful.

I worked with Noberto who responds to questions and concerns promptly and is always happy and available to help. Converting to solar is a long process but is so worth it especially with the access to all the great knowledge and help along the way that prime energy solar provides!

Shawn was good to work with on our install. It does take some time due to City and other regulations. I would recommend that you get everything they agree to provide in writing as the sales pitch can be a little overwhelming. Our system has been going for about a month and seems to be producing well.

Prime Energy Solar has changed our lives with converting to solar and selling our home. We switched to solar and decided to move. When we sold our house we got over $23,000 of what the current market price was. We are now in the processes of buying our new home and rolling our solar system into the mortgage making us electric bill free. Shawn and his team are geniuses. I will always refer Prime Energy to anyone who's interested in solar. They have every product tailored to your home, wants, and needs. Construction, finance, and solar experts.
