This was such a simple process. Once we decided on a design Gered took care of everything from the H.O.A. to coordinating SCE and permitting. Now I know what my power bill will be every month and if power goes out I don't even know because of my battery.
Matt
Carpinteria
So many door to door guys were coming to my house — I was completely turned off by them telling me their company was better. I knew I needed solar but was over it. My neighbor told me she worked with Gered and NRG Consultants and what a different experience! It was all about what I needed and which products fit my needs. I am so happy I was referred to him.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
We let our customers do the talking.
I was skeptical when I first met Gered, but he showed me the numbers and they made sense. He kept me up to date the whole way and what I thought was 'too good to be true' was really just a simple change of where my power came from.
Roberta
Orcutt
I knew I was going to go solar when we bought our house. I talked to a few different companies, then was referred to Gered. He helped me compare companies and products to find the best fit for my needs. It was a completely different experience working with someone who was helping me find the best fit for me vs someone pushing me to go with their company.
Brian
Santa Barbara
My SCE power bill was growing every year and with growing kids I knew it would only increase. Gered gave me the facts, walked me through my options, helped me choose which company to go with, and I took control of my power bill. I appreciate how straightforward Gered was with the whole process. Solar was a smart decision.
Tim
Santa Barbara
PG&E was killing me — we had power outages, our bills were skyrocketing and I couldn't do a thing about it. A neighbor recommended Gered. The bottom line is, he was professional, honest, and never pushy. I was happy to write this for him and recommend him to anyone I talk to about solar.

Hi, I'm Gered Trimble
I've spent the last nine-plus years helping Central Coast homeowners and businesses navigate solar — first with Sunrun and Vivint, and now independently through NRG Solar Consultants. I started NRG because I wanted to give people something I couldn't always give them working for a single company: honest advice, real options, and someone who stays with them all the way through. I'm not here to close a deal and disappear. I'm here to make sure you end up with the right system — or to tell you honestly if solar isn't the right move for you right now.
Serving the Central Coast since 2016.

CONCIERGE FROM FIRST CALL TO POWER-ON
Most solar reps are locked into one company. We're not. We have access to multiple installers and financing partners — so our recommendation is based on what's right for you, not what's right for our quota.
We know this area — the utilities, the permitting offices, the HOAs, the weather patterns. That local knowledge saves time and prevents surprises.
We tell you what we think, not what you want to hear. If solar isn't the right move for your situation right now, we'll say so. That's how we've built a business on referrals.
We stay with you through every step — site assessment, system design, proposal, contract, install coordination, and final activation. You'll always have someone to call.
