Solar energy is all the rage for those interested in reducing their negative environmental impact while saving money.

As the quest to install solar panels can feel daunting for those new to the clean energy game, TCD partner EnergySage provides free tools to get quick solar installation estimates and compare quotes from local, vetted installers.

A review from a recent EnergySage user backed the service's reliability and praised the outcome of using the free tools.

"[EnergySage] made a really confusing process much easier," John, a user of the service, reported. "The opportunity to meet 1:1 online with a real person to answer all my questions was incredible."


Want to go solar but not sure who to trust? EnergySage has your back with free and transparent quotes from fully vetted providers in your area.

To get started, just answer a few questions about your home — no phone number required. Within a day or two, EnergySage will email you the best options for your needs, and their expert advisers can help you compare quotes and pick a winner.

Not only does EnergySage help find which solar panels are best for you, but it takes into account the best solar options in your area, utilizing a helpful mapping tool that shows, on a state-by-state level, the average cost of a home solar panel system.

Plus, EnergySage details solar panel incentives for each state, made possible by the Investment Tax Credit, also known as the solar tax credit. While these incentives grant the average EnergySage user up to $10,000 in savings on solar installation, the solar tax credit has been cut by the Trump administration, so homeowners need to act before the end of the year to cash in on it while it is still available.

The EnergySage reviewer continued to share exactly why the service worked so well for them.

"Because they're not selling me anything, I felt like I could really trust what they had to say," John continued. "I had a few offers and picked one that worked best for my household."
