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.

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.

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.
