Our technician was incredibly knowledgeable and knew exactly how to fix the issue with our panels. He had to order a part, which arrived sooner than... he estimated. The work orders team were very helpful in scheduling the installation of the new part, and our technician arrived before he scheduled time to do the work. He was finished within the hour, and even updated the software on our system to make it more efficient, even though that wasn’t in his original scope of work. It’s a shame this thing maxes out at five stars: I’d give extra ones if I couldread more

ABOUT BLUE RAVEN SOLAR CHARLESTON, SC
Blue Raven Solar came to Charleston, South Carolina and we’ve never looked back. In fact, Charleston has quickly become one of our biggest offices, with our environment-loving neighbors joining the solar revolution, as well as our friends who are just interested in saving money.
Blue Raven Solar is among the most well-reviewed, fastest-growing solar companies in the nation (among the top suppliers on SolarReviews and Google). As a full-service in-house solar provider, we do not outsource our work to any contractors. This means a speedy installation—1 to 2 months in most cases—and superior customer service for you. We take care of design, permitting, engineering, electrical, installation, paperwork, and everything else.
It’s been a few years now since we opened our Charleston, Blue Raven Solar office, and while there are many reasons why we’re here, these are the biggest:
CHARLESTON EMBRACES SOLAR POWER
Few other cities in the country are committed to making the switch to clean, renewable energy like Charleston. The city has committed to an 80 percent reduction in emissions by 2050, and is considering a plan for 100% renewable energy.
CHARLESTON DESERVES THE BEST SOLAR SAVINGS
CHARLESTON VALUES SOLAR QUALITY
The customer experience sets Blue Raven Solar from the rest of the solar energy industry. While there are many local solar companies to choose from, we believe that our commitment to better solar technology helps Blue Raven Solar rise above other solutions.
SOLAR SAVINGS IN SOUTH CAROLINA
With beautiful beaches, lots of sun, and several solar incentives, South Carolina is a great place to go solar! With utility bills increasing, Blue Raven Solar offers affordable solutions that will save Charleston residents money and cut their utility bill forever. When homeowners combine federal tax credits with state tax credits, they’ll be sure to save big on their solar system.
NET METERING
Net metering is applicable to all South Carolina residents. Every residential solar owner is entitled to credits for excess energy production. Those credits will be applied to the homeowner’s next utility bill and if there are excess credits at the end of the year, homeowners receive compensation.
STATE TAX CREDITS
South Carolina is one of the few states to offer state tax credits for going solar. The tax credit covers 25% of the cost of your charleston solar panel system and can be carried over for up to ten years if you don’t pay enough in taxes in any one year.
FEDERAL TAX INCENTIVES
By owning your own solar system, you qualify for tax deductions from the government. The federal government lets owners deduct 30% of the cost of installing a rooftop solar-electric generator, including the cost of any necessary remodeling or retrofitting work associated with the solar installation, from your federal income taxes. Thus, if you were to spend $10,000 dollars on your system, you will receive a $3,000 tax credit. As an added bonus, many states allow for households with solar units to qualify for a deduction on their state income taxes as well.
If you still have your doubts, don’t hesitate to get a free online estimate with Blue Raven Solar. It is our mission to help homeowners across the nation determine whether solar is a smart investment for your unique home and situation.
At Blue Raven Solar, we’re committed to helping our customers start saving by going solar. We offer multiple finance options, including our exclusive plan, BluePower Plus+ option, where we cover the first 18 months of your solar loan payments.

HOW SOLAR ENERGY WORKS
How solar energy works is a combination of technology, economics, and customer service. But it begins with the sun beaming enough energy to earth each hour to power global civilization for a year. With the right equipment, you can harness your share of it and power your life on sunlight. Blue Raven Solar combines all those into a hassle-free experience to make going solar almost as easy as flipping a switch.
THE TECHNOLOGY
Photovoltaics, power inverters, net metering, and photons from the sun create a clean, renewable power source for homeowners. Switching to solar shrinks utility bills and your carbon emissions while boosting the value of your home.
THE ECONOMICS
Falling equipment prices, lucrative tax incentives, and attractive financing make solar energy more accessible to average homeowners than ever. In today’s energy market, rooftop solar often pays back its initial price in just a few years.
THE SERVICE
Going solar happens in steps: consultation, design, permitting, installation, inspection, and energization. Each step involves its own process. When you go solar with Blue Raven Solar, our team works hard to keep the whole experience trouble-free.
Become Your Own Power Plant
At Blue Raven Solar this is the heart of what we believe: our nation’s current power generation is not sustainable. As a nation, we still get over 60% of our electricity from the burning of fossil fuels.
Regardless if one believes in global warming or not, we can all agree the toxic pollution these carbon-based energy sources spew into the atmosphere is not a good thing. The simple test is this: would you like your family to live next to a coal-fired power plant?
Standard electricity is produced from fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. When burned, these fuels emit chemical gases causing pollution and harm to our environment. Fossil fuels are not only destructive to the environment, but they are also a limited resource. Solar electricity is by far one of the cleanest forms of energy.
South Carolina residents are jumping at the chance to become a part of the renewable energy movement. We’re excited to help you throughout your solar journey and hope to help you make a positive impact on the environment while saving you thousands on your electricity bill! As America’s #1 solar installer, we continue to grow throughout South Carolina, so please get in touch to find out how we can serve you.
