I can't recommend Orlando at Stellar Solar highly enough. We bought a home with an existing solar system that turned out to be far more complicated than expected — old equipment, a confusing history with the utility, and gaps in documentation from the previous owner. Orlando first sent Santos out for an initial review of the system, which gave us a clear, honest starting point on where things actually stood. From there, Orlando took over and was incredibly patient throughout the entire process. He didn't just do a quick fix and move on — he actually dug into the details, tracked down what had changed with the equipment over the years, and made sure we understood exactly what we were working with. What really set him apart was how he handled PG&E. When PG&E's story didn't line up with the facts, Orlando stood his ground and pushed back on our behalf, patiently gathering all the information needed to get us moving in the right direction instead of just accepting a runaround. That kind of persistence is rare, and it made a huge difference for us as new homeowners trying to sort out a solar system we inherited. If you're dealing with an older or complicated solar setup — especially one that came with a home purchase — Orlando and Stellar Solar are truly a one-stop shop for solar. From inspection to equipment troubleshooting to fighting for you with the utility company, he handles it all under one roof so you're never left chasing down different people for different problems. Professional, thorough, and genuinely on your side.

Orlando is amazing to work with. You won’t find a kinder, more genuine, or more willing-to-help individual. He’s responsive, knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond to make sure you feel supported and informed. Highly recommend reaching out to him — people like Orlando are rare.
I called Stellar Solar and talked with Orlando about a panel showing no production . I asked for his help in finding someone to resolve the issue. Even though Stellar Solar did not install my system, Orlando offered to make calls to the manufacturer of my system and requested that diagnostics be run to find the issue. A new optimizer is on the way and Orlando will arrange for its installation when it arrives. Wow, I did not expect this treatment. Orlando went above and beyond my expectations and I really appreciate it. Thanks Orlando.
In 2020, we were paying around $600-$700 a month. This was not sustainable and we contacted Alex Bowser as he was the only one we knew in the solar industry. He explained how everything works, no money down and a fixed rate. Since 2020, we have been paying a fixed rate $225 and we SHOULD be paying $800+. Thank you Alex and thank you Stellar for making this easy.
I have had the pleasure of working with Alex and know that he goes above and beyond for his clients because he truly cares. He provides exceptional service throughout the entire process from start to finish with explaining the short and long term benefits of solar. I've referred him to many friends and family who were all satisfied with the outcomes. I highly recommend contacting him for any and all questions!
Monice Lopez and Alex Bowser are awesome. They have been helping me with getting scammed by another company that went out of business right after my installation. They are very kind and honest people who are trying to do the right thing. I’m under no obligation to pay them or even to have them do solar for me. Yet, they are so kind to me saying they just want to do the right thing, be open and honest, and allow people to see the entire project and payments so they can make an informed decision about if it’s right for them. Thank you so much. I will definitely recommend Monice Lopez and Alex to everyone I know.
We had a great experience with Orlando. His organization and communication skills were excellent. Orlando prepared us for every step that was executed during our installation of our solar system. Our solar is up and running wonderfully. Thank you.
Orlando was a big help in getting me out of a bad solar deal, and I’m sure I’ll go solar soon
I went to Orlando for advise after another solar company sales guy lied to me and hooked me into signing a ridiculous contract that I didn't even know I was signing. Orlando helped me understand and get out of the mess that this guy had me in, then proceeded to help me get solar at an extremely better deal and half the price. Orlando restored my faith in these solar sales guys and proved that they aren't all crooked and dont care about the people they are here to help. Not only is Orlando honest but he didnt push and bug while I was trying to get my credit approved.
Very helpfull.., very much a pro. I like Stellar.
