After seeking recommendations from other homeowners, as well as executives of a solar panel manufacturer, it was immediately clear to me that James Pinon was hands above the others in knowledge, and he was very good about educating me about my choices and his recommendations. As an electrician who has specialized exclusively in solar for more than a decade, he understands all options and manufacturers. Living in a mid-fifties house, I wanted to consider all aspects involved in a new installation and preferred, if possible not having to upgrade my electrical panel (which would have taken more time and money). James designed and installed a system that fully met my needs, and came in on time, within my budget with no hidden costs, and fully met our needs. James and his assistant do all of the work themselves and there are no extra costs for a salesperson/estimator as he designs and prices all of his own quotes. His pricing was extremely competitive and he has the highest standards of work, ethics and integrity. I wanted 100% coverage, and I am happy to report at my first year true up in March 2020, all of my electricity costs for the previous year were covered by the electricity I generated, and I had a credit from SDG & E for the year of $43. I offer my highest recommendation to Mission Solar Electric. ## FAQ **Q: What service areas does Mission Solar Electric cover for solar system servicing and retrofits in San Diego?** A: Mission Solar Electric serves all of San Diego County for servicing, retrofitting, and battery additions on existing solar electric systems.
