Very happy with the company and process!
I first went solar nearly a decade ago. I did it to cut costs, lower my bills, and take advantage of state incentives. It worked out great for years.
Recently, my energy needs grew—my kids moved back home, my significant other joined us, and my roof was due for replacement.
So my goal was to bundle the re-roof with a new solar installation, finance it all together, and get access to any state incentives… without losing any incentives I had on my existing panels.
That wasn’t a simple task as it involved removing and reinstalling the old system and lots of back and forth with RI Energy on how to submit the paperwork the way they wanted it.
Rand was the consultant who made it happen. He explained every detail clearly and frankly much better than the company I went with 10yrs ago—the best financing options and why, the equipment, how to maximize the savings.
He went the extra mile to make sure everything was handled smoothly.
If you’re considering solar—whether it’s a first install, an expansion, or combining it with a roof project—I recommend working with Rand.
His choice of install partner, expertise and persistence made an otherwise complex project easy.

I had thought about getting solar panels for a long time, and I had been usually hesitant about committing to the leap and starting the process. However, that all changed when I was contacted by the good people at Solar Begins.
The main reason was due to the outstanding levels of shared information, good communications, and quality trust I received and experienced from Rand as one of the first people I had the pleasure of talking to.
All my questions were easily answered and having Rand available to touch bases with gave me the confidence that I was making the right choice.
Everything was exceedingly efficient and well done. Work on my part was minimal, yet well informed. The deliver of components was excellent, and the professional crew had everything done in one day. (Total time from 1st contact to final install and working, feels like it was about 2 months, maybe a little less) *Smiles*.
Overall, I have had an outstanding experience, and I am very thankful to Rand and the hard-working install crew.
Thank you Very Much!

We finally made the leap to solar, and honestly, we’re so glad we did. Power rates just kept climbing, and we figured it was time to take control of our bills instead of paying an unpredictable amount to Versant each and every month.
Rand, our solar guy, was awesome too—super helpful in breaking down how everything works, especially the state programs that make it all make sense financially.
He explained how we could basically swap our power bill for a fixed payment on solar panels we’d actually own—instead of just paying a utility forever.
No upfront costs, just a locked-in rate for the next 25 years—which was very welcome since retirement’s around the corner for us.
A big shoutout to the install team, too! They were friendly, professional, and got the job done.
If you’ve been thinking about solar but aren’t sure how to proceed, we’d definitely recommend at least exploring it.
It won’t work for everyone but we came to the conclusion that it did for us.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach out if you cannot find an answer to your question
It's actually more expensive to keep 'renting your energy' as that rent just keeps going up!
Solar costs no money out-of-pocket and usually results in a bill swap of your current power bill... except your new bill is predictable and fixed.
OR you can purchase a solar system with cash, giving you a sizable discount on your future electricity consumption. Getting your energy at a fixed rate and not being exposed to 5-15% inflation each year, is like a Mutual Fund in reverse :)
All installations use top tier equipment with 25-year warranties, covering parts as well as labor. They is in addition to strong workmanship guarantees. This is not only important for peace of mind, but also for resale value.
We're an independent company that works for you and not a singular solar company. As your solar advocate, we will shop around to multiple providers for the best equipment and service at the most attractive rates. All relative to your personal circumstances.
