"Our Sunrun solar system has been up and running for almost 10 months now. The whole thing was smooth from beginning to end. [Sunrun] explained it all thoroughly and was always available for questions. The savings have been great. We can’t wait to see how much we save this summer!"

- Susan, East Peoria, IL

"We were very happy with our experience with the Sunrun people. [The team] explained everything thoroughly and followed up with us on every step of the process. Our installers were very professional and got our solar panels up without any problems. The team also explained everything as they were installing our solar panels. We would recommend this solar company to anyone considering going solar. "

"[My Sunrun rep] was absolutely fantastic! He presented all the information accurately and was available throughout the process for any questions! With rising electrical rates in Illinois, I am glad we have a protected rate going forward! We would highly recommend Sunrun for all your solar needs!"

- Ed, East Peoria, IL

"We have had Sunrun for 2 years now. We have had no problems, it works just like they said it would. They have been great answering any questions and the crew that came and installed were very nice and extremely knowledgeable. Our rate is locked so it does not matter if Com Ed tries raising their rates. We would highly recommend Sunrun to anyone thinking about going with solar!"
