OGW Energy Resources, Tipp City OH

Attentive to need to understand all aspects of the system and always available to answer questions when needed

Great people, very knowledgeable no rip offs, they are busy cleaning up after other so called solar panel companies. My repair is flawless, thanks

I highly recommend OGW Energy Resources for any resident wanting solar panels and save thousands of dollars over their lifetime! Their office staff and roofing team were very professional. There was constant communication along the entire process. I had a new roof installed (June 2023) prior to their Energy Resources group installing solar panels. Their engineers are very knowledgeable about solar energy and were very honest about the productivity of the panels along with how many I would need to support my goal. The panels they provided me were eligible for a 40% tax credit, which made going solar a very easy decision. Installation only took a couple days and the crew was great! For those on the fence about going solar, please reach out to OGW! It is great to now have no electric bill.

The solar panel system installed by OGW just went online today. We are very happy with the entire process with OGW - from estimate, design, prep, installation, and completion. They provided excellent communication through the entire process.

Very professional installation from start to finish. Enjoyed working with OGW's estimator, designer, installers, and account administrator.

I reached out to OGW for a solar installation on my home. I am a Solar Engineer, but not an installer so working with OGW was rewarding as they were to help me get solar installed. Very knowledgeable and professional. 9.12kW System with Enphase Micros

We had OGW install a set of solar panels on our home’s roof and the overall experience was fantastic!
The System: We had approximately 24 panels and 24 microinverters installed to generate energy. We already have a generator we use for power outages so there are no batteries in our system.
System Design: OGW took our interests along with our home’s energy use, roof characteristics, property values, and generator size into consideration. Based on these, they developed a few plans for us to choose from. There are several nuances to picking the correct system for a home solar array and the sales representative walked us through the pros and cons of costs, lifecycle, property-value, and functionality characteristics. He was patient, informative, and did a very good job helping us pick the best system for our home.
Preparation: OGW did all the paperwork for power company coordination, local permits, and inspections. This phase was flawless.
System Installation: The system was installed over the course of two days. The team installed the rails, wiring, and electrical interface on the first day. The panels, inverters, and critter guards were installed on the second day. We were able to observe most of the work and the team was very informative. Installation damage was nonexistent, and the cleanup was perfect, no trash or random stuff was left behind. The wrap-up came at the end of day two when the tech walked us through the online monitoring and reporting system. At this point, we were on the grid and producing energy.
Follow-on Performance: The system has been in for a few months and is working flawlessly. Our power generation is about 10% above our usage, which is normal for the summertime months. Our power bills no longer have any charges for energy delivery.
Bang for the Buck: All things considered, (taxes, property-values, energy bills, equipment costs) we expect to be in the black for our system after six years. Because the system’s effective lifecycle is 15-20 years that is great long term value.
Reliability and Support: Our system is new and there are no problems to report. However, OGW is monitoring our system and did do a quality check about a month after the installation. The combination of OGW’s reliability as a business and the equipment warrantees ensure our infrastructure costs are protected.

OGW did a stellar job for us! As the pitch of our roof was too steep, we worked out a plan to place the array on our east facing hillside. This was a first for OGW. They cleared the space of weeds, dug holes, placed the steel pillars in concrete and then built the array. Once the wiring was complete, the array was turned on and has performed flawlessly since - almost 10 months. OGW even secured a standby generator for us and provided an installer!

Kathy, Mike and Cody were absolutely great and extremely knowledgeable! They replaced an inverter on our system that was installed by a company that is no longer in business. They were more than helpful on getting this resolved and they worked us in extremely quick. We look forward to doing more business with them in the near future.

The OGW family did an outstanding job from the quote process to the installation of the system and commissioning! Nate took time to fully understand our goals and explained that they strive to create a "clean" professional appearance of the system. Then Kathy diligently followed the various county and utility approval processes that was key to achieving our goal of completing the installation before the end of the year! The panel installation team were very quick and professional and finally the best was Mike and Cody who worked tirelessly to achieve an absolutely superb sleek look without any conduit running on the outside of our house! Once the system was operational, Cody ensured the connection of our Enphase to our Wifi in order to take advantage of the Enlighten app to monitor the system. Now I can't help myself from checking my energy production through the day! Hard to believe we've already had several days where my energy production exceeded what we used; can't wait until spring and summer! I definitely recommend anyone to check out OGW and get a quote! On a final note, I found OGW when after much research I identified a manufacturer of panels with the best performance warranty and looked for an authorized installer. It just so happened they were also an authorized installer of the inverters with the longest and most comprehensive warranty I could find.
