Tempo Solar World

29*Years in Business
Las VegasLocation

Tempo Solar World has been a fixture of the Las Vegas valley since August 1997, a tenure that spans the entire modern era of residential solar in Nevada. Owned by Laszlo Kiraly and headquartered at 4760 West Dewey Drive in Las Vegas, the company began as an electrical contracting practice before transitioning to dedicated solar sales and installation work for residential, commercial, and industrial clients across southern Nevada. Nearly three decades in a single market is uncommon in this industry, and it shows in the institutional knowledge the team brings to each project. What earned Tempo the top ranking in Nevada was a combination of longevity, regulatory fluency, and verifiable third-party credentials. The company holds a C-2 electrical license through the Nevada State Contractors Board, and BuildZoom records list more than 800 permitted projects across the company's history, a paper trail that few Las Vegas installers can match. Tempo carries an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and has been an accredited business there since April 2021. The team is NABCEP certified, the leading professional credential in the North American solar industry. The numbers behind Tempo's customer satisfaction reflect a long-operating company with the scar tissue that comes with that kind of tenure. A 4.6-star Google rating across 232 reviews is solid for a company that has been installing systems since the late 1990s, and our research team did note a small number of negative reviews citing project delays and billing disputes. Prospective customers should ask pointed questions about activation timelines and NV Energy interconnection handoffs during the sales process. Tempo installs Silfab panels paired with Enphase microinverter platforms — a hardware combination that favors premium-tier components engineered for the high ambient temperatures of the Mojave climate. Financing is available through cash purchase and loan structures, and the company also serves as an official partner of the Vegas Golden Knights NHL franchise. As a locally owned Las Vegas operation, Tempo brings firsthand familiarity with Nevada's evolving net metering rules, NV Energy's interconnection process, and the equipment-derating realities of extreme desert heat. With a composite score of 81.5 out of 100, Tempo Solar World stands as our top-ranked solar company in Nevada for 2026.

ION Solar - Nevada

0BBB Complaints
13Years in Business
North Las VegasLocation

ION Solar operates one of the larger residential solar footprints in the western United States, and their Nevada branch in North Las Vegas serves as a key hub for the company's Las Vegas metro operations. Founded roughly thirteen years ago and headquartered in Utah, the company has scaled rapidly across multiple states, completing over 85,000 installations nationwide. That kind of volume brings both advantages and trade-offs that prospective customers in Nevada should understand. On the positive side, ION Solar's national infrastructure means they carry purchasing power with tier-one equipment manufacturers and can typically offer competitive pricing on panels and inverters. Their North Las Vegas office at 4120 Losee Road gives local homeowners a physical point of contact, which is more than some large national installers provide. The company holds an A-plus rating with the Better Business Bureau and has earned generally positive marks from customers who report smooth permitting processes and installations completed within 30 days. That said, ION Solar's review profile in Nevada is more mixed than their national numbers might suggest. Their 4.4-star Google rating across 673 reviews reflects a customer base that is mostly satisfied but not uniformly so. Some Nevada homeowners have reported delays between panel installation and final electrical connection, and a few have noted difficulty reaching the service team after the initial sale. These are common growing pains for large-scale solar companies expanding into new markets, but they are worth noting for anyone comparing ION Solar against smaller, locally rooted competitors. The company employs a direct sales model that includes door-to-door outreach, which has drawn occasional complaints from residents. However, for homeowners who engage through their website or phone, the consultation process is generally described as thorough and low-pressure. ION Solar's financing options and ability to handle projects at scale make them a practical choice for many Las Vegas homeowners looking to offset Nevada's high summer cooling costs with solar generation. With a composite score of 79.5 out of 100, ION Solar holds the second-ranked position among Nevada solar companies in our 2026 ratings.

Sol-Up

0BBB Complaints
17*Years in Business
Las VegasLocation

Sol-Up has spent fifteen years building what is now the most decorated residential solar resume in Nevada. Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Las Vegas, the company has been recognized as the longest continuously operating solar firm in the state and has placed in Solar Power World Magazine's Top 500 Solar Contractors list every year from 2012 through 2022, while ranking among Nevada's top three installers throughout that span. In 2025 the magazine elevated Sol-Up to number 17 nationally, an unusually high placement for a single-state operator. What our research team weighed against that resume is the credential stack. The Sol-Up team holds NABCEP certification (the industry's highest professional designation for solar installers), is a Nevada State Contractors Board member, and is an active member of both the Vegas Chamber of Commerce and the Solar Energy Industries Association. The company has also earned Elite Installer status with Panasonic, a manufacturer designation that requires advanced training in installation and integration and is reserved for top-performing dealers. That combination of national volume recognition and named manufacturer-tier credentials is uncommon in Nevada, where the market is dominated by sales-heavy multi-state brands. The numbers behind Sol-Up's customer satisfaction are at the upper end of what we see in any state. The company maintains a 4.8-star average across 2,188 Google reviews — one of the largest verified review bases in the entire desert Southwest — and a 4.9-star rating in Las Vegas-specific listings spanning 1,600+ aggregated reviews. The size of the review base is itself a signal of operational scale, because it reflects thousands of completed installations rather than a handful of cherry-picked testimonials. Prospective customers should ask about specific equipment tiers and warranty structures during the sales process, because Sol-Up offers multiple panel and inverter combinations and the Panasonic Elite tier requires that homeowners specifically select Panasonic equipment to access its installer-specific extended warranty. The company concentrates its work in the Las Vegas Valley and Henderson but accepts projects across Nevada. With a composite score of 83.5 out of 100, Sol-Up holds the third-ranked position in Nevada for 2026.

*Companies displaying 15 or more years in business are typically established electrical, roofing, or general contracting firms that expanded into solar installation in more recent years. The years shown may reflect the age of the parent organization or a strategic partner, not necessarily the solar division itself. This distinction is worth considering when comparing to dedicated solar installers, as purpose-built solar companies may offer more specialized expertise despite a shorter operating history.
