Testimonials
A small selection of some kind words from our clients.
"Cut electric costs during the pandemic"
Now that I am working from home 5 days a week as a result of the pandemic, I was worried that my electricity bill would increase quite a bit. I am excited to see how much I'll save!

"Saving on the essentials"
I love saving money whenever I can, especially on essentials like electricity. I didn't even realize that I'd earn a referral bonus for every one of my friends who signs up; I won't be paying for electricity for months!

"Sustainably Minded"
At Provenance Meals, we source vegetables and grass-fed pastured animals from local farms, and use compostable and recyclable packaging. Now we source our energy in the same sustainable way.

"Yay!"
Finally a way to go solar for younger people who don’t yet own a home. I can’t think of a reason why everyone would not do this. Well done PowerMarket!

I loved how simple it was to get attached to a project and start getting a discount on our bill. I’m glad we have community solar in our area because it’s a no-brainer.

"Go Solar Without a Roof"
Unfortunately, we don't get enough sun to put solar panels on our roof, so it was exciting to hook into a local solar project and help the planet. Plus, any questions we have are always answered immediately!
