Its unfortunate but if you want action you have to stay on top of people like bees on Honey!聽 Yes, become a pain!聽 A pain in their !!!聽 Then you might get a response.

Luis, Try Keylor again.聽 I know they do not just send out quotes.聽 They come to your home, take measurements, ask for your electricity bill etc. and prepare a full detailed engineering quote.聽 They need info from you to do it properly.

Good luck.聽 If you get stuck let me know and I will follow up for you.

Will do, thanks

Well, as far as solar installation is concerned, i recently used the services of聽 *** and they did a decent job. I would recommend to use their services as they do things pretty professionally.

Welcome to the forums.聽 Your link posted is under review as is policy on new posters.

Know this: You and everyone else attempting this fine effort are going to battle with the local "power" companies unless you employ this tactic: BEHIND THE METER! Find a Schneider-Electric Reseller to install their Conext XW Pro series inverters+MPPT controller, attached to your solar panels AND batteries(muy importante). T
The "power" companies haven't a clue on how to manage the oncoming wave of the 'connect-to-the-grid' solutions, nor do they welcome it-it goes against their ancient business plans (IMHO): To leave all in the dark-often, and those with gas/diesel generators are considered outlaws?!...They, too, can use batteries to reduce their fuel consumption/emissions and time of operation. Yes, there are other vendors, too. I'd post a link, but the admin's don't seem keen on quick turnarounds....
Good Luck~WWIII

This is a company in California! Do they also work in the DR? If not, I don't understand why you are referring them here.

Its being removed.聽 No value here.

Hi .. I'm a solar installer living in the NYC. I would like to get in contact with any contractor in the Dominican republic . PL reply maybe we could do something .. thank you

Welcome to the forums Willy.聽 聽Contractors are a dime a dozen here and spread all over the country. I can connect you with a good Electrical engineer if you are interested.聽 Maybe he can steer you in the right directly.

Soon or later I am gonna need solar panels.聽 Do you have a contact number or email?


Rich

Rich - we're using EVR Solar, here in Las Terrenas.

Awesome thank you

I inquired with the gated community located on the North Shore that we are considering having them build us a Villa about adding solar power to our Villa.

The reply I received was there was a law in the Dominican that does not allow gated community Villas to have solar power.

Can anyone shed some light to this law please ? With all the sunshine in the DR one would think solar power would be something welcomed.

Thanks.

Ian

I have never heard of this.聽 You do need to have permission to use solar if you are going off grid or feeding back into the grid.

Many gated communities upcharge on services.聽 This. May be the case and why they don't want you using solar.

As planner said, certainly not a law against it in DR! That individual HOA might have rules against solar, but with the unreliable power grid here, even that is hard to believe! Everyone needs some type of back up power, and in a nice, gated community, I would much rather see solar panels than deal with the noise and pollution of generators!

@DominicanadaMike

Hello Mike. Can you please share with me the information for the solar panel company?

Thanks

Read the post above for the name...

@Ian1272 Contact 鈥淢inisterio de Energ铆a y Minas,鈥� you can find it in Google, ask for Mr Antonio Almonte, the Minister, or an assistant. They all speak English very well, and are the maximum authority in the country concerning this matter.

are all the solar systems being installed here in the DR the Flat panel systems or is anyone installing the curved shingles with success?

I deal with a few companies in China -聽 and looking at 2 manufactures that that can produce a visually appealing solar shingle that will work here with the temperature and wind. Ive brought product from China to the US in the past without issue (even paying the customs & shipping fees) - so don't know if that is my only option to get what I want - but I know I don't want flat panel systems on my properties

any input would be appreciated

I just found this group and have gotten a TON of great content from you guys (and gals) already - Thanks for sharing your experiences

John

Welcome to the forums! As to your question I have not seen anything like this.

Where we are in Las Terrenas, I鈥檝e only seen flat panels. The homes here tend to be modern designs with flat roofs or Caribbean style with Cana roofs. Not a lot of shingles here of any type.

@DominicanadaMike

HI I saw your post on this site from 2018 and I am now researching to have solar installed in one of my house.

I am in the barrio and they say we are a 24 hour circuit but that is in questions.

Do you have a good contractor in the Santo Domingo ESTE area that you can recommend?

Is stand alone much easier now 2023.

What's been your experience?

Thanks

Christopher

Christopher welcome to the forums. We will remove your email address and put your post back up. We don't allow sharing of personal contact information.聽 You can private message anyone and share that.

Hello Christopher.聽 I am not in the SD area and cannot recommend anyone there.聽 Hopefully others will chime in and give you some recommendations.

The contractor will verify what type of solar is allowed in your situation by the local electrical company, if any.

Good luck.

And in Santo Domingo este聽 you are on Edeeste lines. They are聽 not fun to deal with.聽 I think the first step is to find out if they are even allowed where you are!聽 聽Good luck and keep us posted,
