What is Blue Raven Solar?

Blue Raven Solar provides homeowners with a simple and affordable way to get set up with solar panels and storage and own their solar power systems without leasing from a third party.

The company designs a system for your home, obtains permits and installs the components. Most installations are completed in one day. For those with qualifying credit scores, there are no upfront installation costs, and power is free for the first 18 months. Blue Raven claims customers typically save between 10% and 30% off the cost of their monthly utility bills.

Blue Raven Solar uses the latest solar panel technology, including black-on-black, monocrystalline silicon solar panels and Enphase microinverters. All Blue Raven solar plans include a smart thermostat and LED lighting for your home. Blue Raven solar systems come with a two-year service warranty, 10-year workmanship warranty and a solar power production guarantee. Solar panels also typically include a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty. Lastly, Blue Raven provides free system monitoring.

How does Blue Raven Solar work?

A consultant from Blue Raven Solar will talk with you over the phone about your options. Installations are customized to take advantage of the best location for the solar panels and other components. The company also helps with obtaining permits. Once the design is complete and proper permits are in place, installation takes one day in most cases.

The company offers a cash payment option, as well as two financing options: BluePower and BluePower Plus+. The Blue Raven BluePower Plus+ plan is especially interesting, combining the concept of a power purchase agreement (PPA) with the benefits of solar ownership.

With BluePower Plus+, qualified customers pay $0 upfront and get free power for 18 months. The loan agreement lets the homeowner own the solar panel system while paying it off over time and keeping 100% of the power savings. Monthly payments and interest rates do not increase during the life of the loan, and there is no prepayment penalty.

How much does Blue Raven Solar cost?

Blue Raven Solar’s cost varies based on the size of the installation. The company does not provide specific pricing on its website, but potential customers can call or fill out a form to be contacted by a representative for a free consultation and information about pricing.

Qualified customers pay $0 upfront and get 18 months of free solar power. The cost of the system is financed over time with a loan. Monthly payments and interest rates are fixed for the life of the loan.

Customers can also opt to pay cash for the system. In this case, the system is typically paid for in two payments. Blue Raven claims systems pay for themselves within three to five years when paying cash.

    We had a great experience working with Blue Raven Solar from start to finish. The entire team was incredibly responsive, helpful, and knowledgeable, which made the whole process easy and stress-free. They were always quick to answer questions and clearly explained our options so we felt confident every step of the way.

    Our sales rep, Harrison, was especially outstanding. He was on top of everything, proactive with communication, and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. It was clear he genuinely cared about getting us the right solution rather than just making a sale. We’re very happy with our investment in solar and are glad we chose Blue Raven. We’d absolutely recommend them to anyone considering going solar.

      The installation team delivered materials a day before the install and the crew showed on time the day of install. They’re worked all day in below freezing temperatures to make sure to get done in two days! The only issue was having the crew in the house. They had to access the attic but they did not put down a drop cloth to catch the blown in insulation and we had to clean up both days. They also tried to cover their boots before coming inside but their shoe covers were already dirty and they tracked muddy footprints upstairs and in the basement. We also had to clean up quite a bit of garbage and wire from around the outside of the house. We have not had the final inspection yet so I’m hoping that goes well and these issues will only be minor inconveniences.

      I wanted to take a moment to share my experience with the solar system installation project at my home. From the very beginning, everything was explained to me in a way that was clear and easy to understand. I appreciated how thoroughly the product itself was described, including how the system connects with the electric company and how billing will work once it’s up and running. The rebate program was also explained, along with the important note that it will no longer be available after 2026.

      The contract covered all the key details, including the system cost and the 30% Federal Tax Credit, which is a great benefit. I was also given a realistic timeline for each stage of the project:

      • 1–2 weeks for the site survey
      • 1–2 weeks for design and approval
      • 1–6 weeks (or longer) for permit submission and approval

      • 1–6 weeks for installation, inspection, and interconnection

      Having this timeline helped me know what to expect, and inspections were set up smoothly along the way. I want to highlight how professional and courteous the workers were. They performed their tasks in a timely manner, and I especially appreciated when the crew leaders took the time to explain what they were going to do in plain, straightforward language. That gave me confidence and peace of mind throughout the process.

      Since this is a project that can take several months, communication was very important to me. I was impressed with the call center staff — if they didn’t have an answer right away, they made sure to find it and call me back promptly. That level of follow-through really stood out. Overall, I’ve been very pleased with the professionalism, clarity, and respect shown by everyone involved. This experience has left me feeling confident in the system and grateful for the team that made it happen.

      They were great to work with. Our salesperson was Garret **. He was very knowledgeable, patient and I truly feel he had our best interest in mind, we never felt pressured. The process to get permits was handled completely by them and was very fast as we faced a deadline. The installation was a breeze. It took approximately 6 hours for 12 panels and all the electrical work which proved to be challenging due to the age and construction of our home. They cleaned up and left our property as if they were not here. I would 100% recommend Blue Raven and Garret **.

      Run away!!! The worst experience possible. $ 131000, 23 Kw system. Left with unrepaired wholes in the wall drywall, sinking trenches and pipes sticking out from the ground. Tried to contact them multiple times. Was able to talk to a person by the name Ari once and after that have been ghosted and ignored. Nothing has been repaired. Planning on taking legal action. RUN AWAY from this company, or you will regret!!!

      Reviewed Jan. 16, 2026

      Signed contract Jun 4, 2025. Panels installed July 23, 2025. We were told no payments until 3 months after panels were activated. September, they pulled a payment. Hours spent on the phone to be told they can't correct the issue but they would "pay us back" the payment. Happened again in October. Mind you, it is now 1/16/2025 and the system is STILL NOT activated. Evergy failed the inspection twice and about 8 weeks after that failed, Blue Raven finally sent someone else out to fix it, but they could not fix it. They blame it on Evergy, Evergy blames it on Blue Raven. Meanwhile I have a panel system that was installed 7 months ago, not activated AND we recently found out that due to poor installation by Blue Raven, the panel system is causing water leaks into my attic space and finally showing water damage on the ceiling below. They were supposed to come remove panels this week in order to repair the roof... no one showed up.

      Hi Heather, we’re truly sorry for the frustration and delays you’ve experienced. We understand how concerning this situation has been, especially with the extended PTO timeline and the issues you’ve described. We want to share that we have escalated your case with the utility company, and a meter pull is now scheduled for 2/5. If any payments have been made to your financing provider prior to system energization, those amounts will be reimbursed after energization so you receive the full amount back. Our team is also addressing the installation-related concerns and will continue coordinating next steps. Thank you for your patience, and we are committed to seeing this through. - Katie G.

      RUN AWAY!!!! At best, it was a NIGHTMARE. It took TWO YEARS to get our installation, many hand-offs, over 80 hours of my time off of work were wasted on appointments where they never showed up, failed to secure the proper permits, had the wrong tools, their inspector who spec'd the plan failed to be thorough enough, etc. I was treated condescendingly, handed off, ignored, etc. A year after our final billing cleared, "The Ghost of Incompetent Solar Install Companies Past" resurfaced to inform me I had an outstanding bill.

      My first response, pointing out that it was an error, was ignored. Because I had SUCH awful dealings with them, I previously insisted they provide stamped 'paid' copies of invoices. Second inquiry, I forwarded their final paid invoice back to them. They apparently don't train representatives to research before asking for payments... SIGH. Sucks to be on the front lines, but worse when your company backstabs you by not training to research issues before contacting customers & looking like an idiot AND wasting people's time. Should they not respond within 5 business days, I will formally request a "Proof of debt." Their lawyers should be aware of how to respond in a legally required timely manner and thus earn their expensive hourly rate.

      I truly admire their courage, professionalism, and dedication. The team installed the solar panels in extremely brutal cold weather, where it was almost impossible to stand outside for even five minutes. Despite the harsh conditions, they worked continuously for six to seven hours and completed the installation on time. Very happy and impressed with their commitment and timely execution.
