What American Renewable Energy INC does

American Renewable Energy Inc. is a privately held solar installation and services company headquartered at 125 E Sunnyoaks Ave, Ste 103, Campbell, California, serving both residential homeowners and commercial businesses across the United States. The company designs, sells, and installs complete grid-tied solar photovoltaic systems using panels from multiple Tier 1 manufacturers (SunPower, Panasonic, LG, Solaria, REC, Canadian Solar, Hanwha QCell), bundled with battery storage (Tesla Powerwall) and EV charging integration. Services span the full lifecycle — new installation, individual panel and battery add-ons, full system diagnostics, module cleaning, inverter replacement, monitoring and battery troubleshooting, critter guard installation, panel removal and re-installation, and a specialized home inspection service for real-estate transactions.

The technology stack is standard solar-industry kit: third-party PV modules, string and micro inverters, and Tesla Powerwall battery storage. The company's competitive angle, per its own positioning, is execution and accessibility — a roofing background enabling installation on any roof type, multi-certified installers and dedicated project managers guiding customers through a three-step consultation/evaluation/installation funnel, and direct consultation-based sales via phone (844-377-0733) and website forms.

The business model is primarily one-time installation revenue on residential and commercial projects, supplemented by hardware pass-through on panels, mounting systems, batteries, and EV chargers, and recurring professional services revenue from maintenance, repair, and home inspection work. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and requires consultation; financing options, including a no-upfront-cost structure for commercial customers, are available. The company markets through organic social (Facebook, Instagram), phone-based inside sales, and direct field sales, with no disclosed institutional ownership, no public listing, no M&A activity, and no leadership changes on record. Operating as of 2024 with ~16 employees, it is a sub-scale regional operator in California's competitive residential solar market.
