In Pescadero, Como El Sol on main street. Did mine and several others here in our development, and installs very high quality reliable systems.
We have remote access via web to monitor, alter or adjust while you are gone, monitor generator and fuel tanks and do remote generator starts/stops to keep it exercised. Victron Inverters and controls and Pylontech LiFePO4 batteries that will do 6000 cycles down to 95% discharge. Very pleased with the reliability and robust quality.

Personally, unless you design and install your own system I would use Adam at Como el Sol. We buy our panels there and they have installed systems for several of our neighbors.

Nice people, good service and fair prices.

Tacayo: Are you designing a fully solar electric home, or adding on solar to keep the power bills down while adding more electric appliances? If the second is the case, you may want to source the parts and do it yourself. There are a lot of cheap systems and batteries available online.

JD, I'm trying to help friends put together a small basic system. Their electrical needs are quite limited. I need to find a vender in BCS because they live in the boonies and can't get any deliveries and I want to avoid schlepping the equipment from the USA. Thanks for your feedback.
It looks like La Paz is where I need to go.
