Why CHOOSE 8MSolar
Over A traditional Solarize program

We are seeing an influx of solar programs that have unnecessary requirements and processes that don’t benefit homeowners. They often have additional program requirements and middlemen (companies who organize the program) taking a cut out of each project. These programs are designed to appear to benefit homeowners, while in reality are a way for the organizer to make money off of each project.

8MSolar’s vision is more streamlined and focuses on high-quality, well-engineered systems with or without battery backups and no middle-men allowing the pricing to be kept reasonable.

Our program is inclusive and available to anyone in the area. If you are a homeowner in the area, we will take care of you and your neighbors. We will beat any solarize quote.

Solarize Programs

Customization

Every homeowner gets a customized 3‑D solar proposal, individualized equipment and financing, with choices spanning budget‑friendly systems through premium, top‑tier packages designed specifically for them.
Homeowners forced to choose from pre-selected hardware options. Quick property check, proposals only for qualified homeowners. Equipment, panels, batteries, financing fixed in program design. Homeowners choose from two panel or battery options.

Pricing

North Carolina’s top installer 8MSolar uses steady high volume to secure premium gear at best prices—no tiers, deadlines, or one‑size kits. Every customer gets custom engineered solutions.
Aims to save through volume discounts, but tiered pricing requires many sign‑ups; one designated installer sets costs, so “lowest” tier isn’t always truly low‑cost.

Warranties

8MSolar’s Lifetime workmanship warranty covers roof penetrations, wiring, and connections for system life, ensuring superior post‑installation protection.
Program mandates specific installer, only 5 to 15 year limited warranties.

Community Outreach

Leads pro‑solar advocacy, won 2024 NC Sustainable Business of the Year, and equips dozens of nonprofits statewide with affordable solar installations.
Provides solar education through workshops and guidance; installer donates one at‑cost system locally; engagement ends post‑campaign with no ongoing policy advocacy.

Why we are the #1 solar panel company

Working with 8M Solar was awesome. Extremely professional and squared away. They did not try to add gimmicks or unnecessary complications regarding financing to the solar project. The financing was easy to do and I good a great rate on my loan. They did an accurate assessment of my electricity needs with projections for future electricity requirements when I purchased an electric vehicle. Their projected kilowatt energy production of my solar panels was extremely accurate. My project was 13-panels, Tesla Power Wall and 240V EV charger. The quoted price was accurate from the start of the contract until completion. There were no hidden fees or financial surprises. Installation went great, it was done in a day and with the Duke Energy approvals I was up and running within a week after installation. Lastly, they provided a veterans discount which gave me one panel for free. Simply an excellent group to work with. 8M Solar rocks!
8MSolar was a 5 star pick for our solar installation. 1) Friendly and genuine, 2) they answered all of my questions, no matter how redundant or obvious, 3) they worked with me to design a system that was specific to our needs - not too much, not too little, 4) they walk through each step of the process with clear instructions on what to expect, what to fill out, when they were coming and how to prepare for the permits, inspections and more ,5) they handled all the paperwork work, forms, inspections, permits and etc. If there were any that I needed to submit, they provided the form and instructions on what to do, 6) install was quick and well done - and in 1 day, and 7) they followed up to make sure everything was to our expectation, tested and that we knew how to operating/monitor it. While they do not finance themselves, the credit union they work with was just as easy, reasonable rates and options to adjust 3x and no penalties to pay off early.
I am extremely happy with the level of service 8M Solar provided when installing solar panels and battery at my residence. The team is extremely professional. They were quick to give me a quote for the system, which was a very competitive and reasonable quote. They worked with me to address all questions and concerns I had. The installation process went through without a hitch. The project manager shared all relevant details ahead of time and he made sure that each of the teams working on the project were on time. I installation teams were polite and went about their business with great professionalism. The installation completed on time. I am still in the first week after the installation, but I have had a great experience so far. I definitely recommend 8M Solar for anyone looking to go solar
The sales process was smooth and informative. I felt in control the whole time, wasn’t rushed. The install was great, it happened sooner than I thought it would and only took a day. The project team kept us informed the whole time of next steps and worked hard to get the system certified with the county as quickly as possible. The panels and battery have been working very well, just need it to be sunny again! I would definitely use 8M again and there’s a reason why they are the biggest installer in the state.
I received my solar from 8m solar almost 2 mo this ago now. It has been amazing and my original duke bill is nonexistent! (Power pair incentive). 8m was very professional and made the whole process easy. The best price and panels across at least 5 different companies that I spoke to these guys stood out the most. 10/10 recommend
