By [Olivia Bolt](https://energytheory.com/author/olivia%5Fbolt/)April 24, 20245 Mins Read ![Olson solar energy review](https://energytheory.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Olson-solar-energy-review.webp "Olson Solar Energy Review") Solar energy is getting more and more popular as it’s a free sour­ce of power. It has three main benefits: saving money, reducing carbon emissions, and increasing the resale value of a house. To cater to the increasing demand for clean energy, more energy providers are joining the industry, and one of them is Olson Solar Energy. So today in this Olson Solar Energy review, we will be exploring their plans, prices, services, coverage area, complimentary surveys, and warranty offers. ## **Olson Solar Energy Review** It is a local solar company founded by twin brothers, [Cameron and Brandon Olson](https://www.olsonsolarenergy.com/about-us/). They left their successful careers in North Carolina and Washington state and came back to Wisconsin to start their solar business. The [Olson Solar Energy](https://www.olsonsolarenergy.com/), LLC holds a ‘A+’ rating from the [Better Business Bureau (BBB)](https://www.bbb.org/us/wi/onalaska/profile/solar-energy-contractors/olson-solar-energy-llc-0694-1000038939/customer-reviews) and scores 3.67 out of 5-star reviews on their site, based on 3 reviews. The remarks are mixed, **people appraise the professionalism, communication, and timely installation** of solar panel systems and activation. Several mentioned some small setbacks but still praised them for the quick response and persistence. However, the problems at Olson Solar were: the delays, some approvals were incorrect and the undisclosed large cost overruns. Overall, reviews indicate that they create a good impression when they are delivering a quality service. Yet the customer complaint portrays the risk of poor customer service and technical issues. So, consider these points beforehand for the final choice of Olson Solar to install their photovoltaic panels. ### **Olson Solar Energy Service Area** [Solar projects](https://www.olsonsolarenergy.com/our-projects/) developed by Olson Solar Energy have been installed successfully all over the country on different types of establishments including school systems, farms, church buildings, and residences.
