Kind words from our satisfied customers

Terrific expertise and customer service. Efficient and personable. Bailed me out of a jam with a large generator when another company whiffed. Clearly my first choice.

I recently had a Kohler 38RCLB standby generator installed to support my entire home. Carolina Energy... was completely upfront, direct, and honest. The six people I dealt with all knew their business cold and adhered to both the letter and the spirit of the building code. There were no teases or false promises... I am completely confident in and satisfied with the installation.

James Hirst

I recently purchased a 20 kW Cummins generator and transfer switch from Carolina Energy Systems including installation. Everyone I dealt with during the whole process was very professional and personable... I required a new pad and extensive gas work and all was done very well. I would definitely recommend this company for purchasing a new generator.

We're using Carolina Energy Systems to provide routine maintenance on our Generac backup generator. The service tech (Steven) provided me with a comprehensive overview of the product and the services he would be performing. He answered all my questions and was very professional.

Very nice folks to work with. They handled everything that had to be done for our generator installation. We wanted a turn-key install so as not to deal with electricians, gas guys, Etc. and that's just what we got.
Arron, Willy, and Nick could not have been nicer through the entire process. Anyone looking for a generator should not look anywhere else.

Shout out for the folks at Penrose, NC Carolina Energy Systems! This company was easy to work with, called me back promptly when I had questions, priced fairly, and billed exactly what was quoted.
If you are reading this review take my word, this is an honest, fair company that knows generators and does what they say they will do.

We have used Carolina Energy Systems to support our Kohler Generator for several years. We have always gotten great service from the staff technicians and appropriate response when we have had emergency-related calls. We use OnCue to monitor the system and CES also gets notified of events directly too. Thank you, folks!
