TESTIMONIALS
We Love Our Customers
Baker Electric was the right fit to install a 350-kilowatt 14-hundred panel solar system. By going solar we will save $120,000 each year reduce our electric bill by nearly 90 percent. This will allow us to provide an additional six hundred thousand meals to the community. I can't say enough good things about Baker Electric.
Jim Floros
President & CEO The Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank
We had the privilege to have Baker Electric install commercial solar systems at our San Diego and Solana Beach Locations. I say privilege because in both cases it was a fantastic experience. All in all, Baker is a solid company with a solid crew. Everything was extremely well coordinated and I highly recommend them.
David Bubnash
General Manager, Morena Storage, Solana Beach Storage
After a nationwide search, we found Baker had the experience and did the best job of explaining the options. They worked closely with our structural engineering and steel contractor and added roof reinforcements designed to meet seismic requirements when the concern came up. Baker stayed on schedule, did a great job of communicating and even arranged the solar commissioning after-hours and on a weekend to help us avoid interruptions to our business operations.
Todd Roberts
President Marine Group Boatworks
As a charter school leader, I depend on reliable, responsive, and high-quality support from trusted advisors. I have found Baker Electric to fully meet and exceed those expectations. Their attention to detail and a wide range of knowledge on construction management and coordination was impressive. We found them to be approachable and invested, as they pursued our project with our best interest in mind and first. We were quite satisfied with the outcome.
Monique Davis
Executive Director El Sol Science & Arts Academy
We looked at several different companies to do our solar panels, but Baker just seemed like they were a step above. They had an amazing team of specialists and great financing programs. The whole process was so easy; we were up and running quickly and with no capital expenditure. We're a family-owned business, and it's important that I have something that I can pass on to the next generation. This is just one more way we can help the environment and support our customers and their causes.

Being entirely supported by donors, it is crucial for the Federation to use funds efficiently. Every dollar saved can be redirected towards their work in San Diego and globally. Embracing solar energy aligns with Jewish beliefs in caring for the Earth and underscores the Federation's long-standing commitment to energy consciousness and conservation within the community. This initiative has been a significant step in their ongoing efforts to become more sustainable and environmentally responsible.
Michael Sonduck

Just a few lines to let you know that we are extremely pleased with your company's work in the installation of our solar energy system. Your care and attention was phenomenal. I was told that Baker Electric was the best company for solar and you proved that with the handling of every detail.
Dave Berry, Troy Sutton, Scott Helms and yourself were all a great part in our pleasant experience with Baker Electric. We would have no hesitation in recommending your company for any solar project.
Thank you again for a job well done.
Gene Beezer, Pastor

Since the installation, we have seen a significant reduction in our energy costs and a positive impact on our environmental footprint. The system has been performing flawlessly, and we are confident that it will continue to deliver substantial benefits for years to come.
I wholeheartedly recommend Baker Electric to anyone considering a solar PV installation. Their expertise, professionalism, and commitment to customer satisfaction set them apart as a leader in the industry. We look forward to continuing our relationship with them for future projects and are grateful for the positive experience they have provided.
