Services
Grid-tied solar installations
Grid-tied solar systems connect to the utility grid, allowing excess energy production to offset electricity costs. These installations reduce reliance on fossil fuels while maintaining grid backup for nighttime or cloudy days. Our systems use high-efficiency panels and smart inverters to maximize energy savings for homes and businesses.
Off-grid solar systems
Off-grid solar solutions provide complete energy independence through battery storage and solar arrays. Designed for remote locations or those seeking energy autonomy, these systems include advanced charge controllers and durable batteries to ensure consistent power supply regardless of grid availability.
Battery backup solutions
Battery backup systems store excess solar energy for use during outages or peak demand periods. We install lithium-ion and other high-capacity storage options that integrate seamlessly with existing solar arrays, ensuring uninterrupted power and reducing utility dependency.
EV fast chargers
Our EV fast charging stations deliver rapid, reliable charging for electric vehicles at homes or businesses. We offer Level 2 and DC fast charger options compatible with all major EV models, with optional solar integration for sustainable charging.
Island and remote site installations
Specialized solar solutions for island properties and remote locations where grid access is limited. These installations combine solar panels, battery storage, and sometimes backup generators to create self-sufficient energy systems tailored to challenging environments.

(PART A) As a former State Licensed Contractor in another state, I will say this. I paid over 35K to have a 4.9KW off grid system installed. Part of the job was to have a hard wired in home monitoring screen installed on my interior wall of my house by the entry door. When I ask Rob where it was he said it was not installed & that he could install it in my solar control room in my garage. My reply was, why I can just look at my charge controllers if Im already out in my solar room. As I told Rob the whole reason I got the remote monitoring device was to NOT have to leave my house. So after a

I've been so impressed by the friendliness, responsiveness, integrity, and quality of Assured Solar Energy's services. They installed 18 panels on my garage roof this past winter. I have Solar Edge monitoring available whenever I login to see how my panels are doing. My job was a little more challenging because our electric panel also needed to have an upgrade. Assured Energy took each challenge in stride with a calm

We installed 21 panels on our garage roof and had a great experience throughout the entire process. From Andrew to Rob to the electricians, installers and accounting department, we appreciate the care and quality we received. We would highly recommend Assured Solar. I should also mention the PUC moved some deadlines and Assured Solar made it happen! Thanks

Great company to work with. The team was professional and knowledgeable about all aspects. From the beginning, Rob F was instrumental with his advice in how to optimize our system. Additionally, since we had other renovations taking place he was able successfully coordinate the Assured Solar installation crew around the other workers. The installation electricians were neat and tidy and very helpful in reconfiguring the wiring around the original electrical panels. The same can be said for the technicians that installed the panels... no mess left behind. I was amazed at how well organized and coordinated

ASE installed a 8.4 KWh system on my house in Falmouth. I was very impressed how Andrew and Rob were able to work through many unique variables to make my system function. I have afternoon shade on my garage roof but the panels they install are efficient at collecting solar energy even in shade and cloudy days. Andrew is very knowledgeable about every aspect of solar. Great company great people to be installing solar.

I have just signed a contract for the second time with Assured Solar. My experience with them 5 years ago was great. The system was installed very well and the design and quality was top notch. I got slightly more output than they predicted. The system is still producing as well as when it was put in. I am adding a building to my property and am adding another roof array. I would recommend them very highly.
