Testimonials

This will be my 8th year working with Blue Sky Energy. I am a roofing, sheet-metal and general contractor with multiple installations that were completed by Blue Sky Energy. The solar industry is relatively new, still evolving and changing every day. The principal, Gary Rochlin is a college graduate with extensive general construction experience. And it shows. He evaluates pv systems, and their economics much better than any other solar contractor we have used. Gary also installed the system in my own home and I couldn’t be happier.
