Pinnacle Solar NW

Pinnacle Solar NW launched in 2024 as a Portland-based solar installer, but the company was founded by a team with deep roots in the renewable energy industry. While the business itself is new, the expertise behind it runs far deeper. The team is composed of seasoned professionals with years of solar installation experience, bringing technical know-how and customer service standards honed over previous careers in the industry. Based in Portland, Oregon, Pinnacle Solar NW is a full-service solar installation company serving homeowners and businesses throughout Oregon and Southwest Washington, including communities like Vancouver, Gresham, Hillsboro, and Camas. The company specializes in residential and commercial solar panel installations, battery storage systems, backup generators, and electrical service upgrades. From the first phone call, Pinnacle’s approach is different. They provide accurate pricing information upfront, a rarity in an industry often clouded by vague estimates and pressure tactics. The company’s mission centers on making renewable energy both accessible and affordable for Pacific Northwest homeowners, helping them reduce energy costs and carbon footprints through dependable solar energy and onsite battery storage solutions. Pinnacle Solar NW is certified as a REC Pro Trust Certified Installer and an Enphase Certified Installer, demonstrating their commitment to working with premium equipment manufacturers. The company holds Oregon CCB License #251356 and BDS License #C1946, along with Washington contractor licenses, and carries comprehensive insurance coverage. They’ve completed projects across the Portland metro area and surrounding Oregon and Washington communities, with permit records showing nearly 100 solar installations to date. Reviews consistently highlight the company’s transparent pricing, with customers noting their quotes were significantly more competitive than other installers while still using high-quality components. The team’s attention to detail during installation and their willingness to handle complex permitting challenges set them apart. Pinnacle Solar NW earned BBB Accreditation in December 2024, and the company consistently ranks among the top solar installers on EnergySage for Oregon and the Portland metro area. Their 15-year workmanship warranty on roof penetrations and installation labor, combined with 25-year warranties on panels and inverters, reflects confidence in their craftsmanship. For Portland homeowners considering solar installation, the Pacific Northwest climate presents unique considerations, and Pinnacle’s team understands how to optimize system design for Oregon’s weather patterns while navigating local utility requirements and maximizing available state and federal incentives.
