Let's dive into Mr. Followill’s journey to a greener and more cost-effective energy solution. “ I was pretty excited after I got my report, it says I produced 650kWh, and consumed 589kWh”. He's producing more than what he's using. He tells us that "the less bills you have the better off you are," and Shinnova solar successfully reduced his bills. He recommends, "Do it as soon as you can!” In regards to his experience with Shinnova he remarks that, "his consultant was awesome, and he really can’t say enough about him." When asked about recommending Shinnova he says, "Yes. Definitely. I’ve had a lot of people get solar and tell me it didn’t feel right, it was really confusing, but Jeremy really put the time in to make sure I understood it."

Mr. Lorigan's Shinnova Solar Experience
Tyler Lorigan and his family, residing in Shawnee, KS, recently embraced solar energy with Shinnova. “Been great,” Tyler says about his overall experience. Tyler decided to go solar for the financial benefits, as he explains, “The biggest reason we did solar was because of the tax benefits. It made sense.” Beyond that, having reliable power for his family was important, “If the power went out, we would be in big trouble, so the batteries make sense.” The Lorigans love to spend time outdoors and were able to help the environment. As Tyler says, “I’m all about going green, and the tax incentives are amazing.” Tyler was very satisfied working with the Shinnova team and is eager to share his experience. He offered, “I would love a Shinnova sign to stick in my yard… and will leave a good review as soon as I can.” Going solar with Shinnova was a win-win for the Lorigans.

We were tired of paying every month for an electric bill that always seemed to be going higher and higher. After talking to several Solar companies we decided to go with Shinnova Solar. I really liked the way Adam took the time to explain everything and was also the most knowledgeable out of the four companies. We are so happy to be going solar and we are even happier to be doing this with the help of Shinnova Solar.
I was really happy with how friendly everyone was that I dealt with, how they kept me informed every step of the way through the setup process, and how quickly they were able to accomplish the installation. Everyone was very professional.
Great company and product. Employees were very professional and work was done as requested. Communication was excellent. We are very happy with our setup and savings. So happy we went with this company. They are honest and provide additional services other companies do not.
