Why Gold Path Solar?

Gold Path Solar was founded after more than 20 years in the solar industry to give property owners a better way to go solar. Too many customers face confusing presentations, high-pressure sales tactics, disconnected contractors and poor communication. We built an employee-owned solar company around clear guidance, personalized system design and accountable service.

Residential solar installation is our primary focus. We also design commercial solar and battery storage systems. Every recommendation starts with your property, electricity usage, roof or site conditions, local utility requirements and long-term energy goals.

A dedicated Solar Advocate stays with you throughout the project, giving you one consistent point of contact from consultation and design through permitting, utility interconnection, installation and activation. Our in-house team handles the details, keeps you informed and works toward 100% customer satisfaction at every stage.

The Benefits of Solar Power

Savings

Solar energy can offset electricity you would otherwise purchase from the utility company, resulting in significant bill savings for many property owners. Your actual savings will depend on your electricity use, system production, utility rates, financing and available incentives.

Rate Protection

Electricity costs can rise quickly, with increases of more than 20% seen in some markets. Generating part of your own electricity can reduce the effect of future utility-rate increases and give you greater control over long-term energy expenses.

Increased Self Sufficiency

A solar system allows your home or business to generate electricity on-site instead of relying entirely on the utility grid. Battery storage can make more of that energy available after sunset and support selected electrical loads during an outage.

A Greener World

Solar power can reduce the amount of electricity your property draws from conventional generation sources. That lowers your carbon footprint while supporting cleaner energy production for your family, business and community.

Our Solar Installation Process

Solar is more than a business for Gold Path Solar. We take time to understand your property, electricity use and energy goals before recommending a system.

Your dedicated Solar Advocate stays involved throughout the project, giving you one consistent point of contact from consultation and design through permitting, installation and activation.

Step 1 Consultation & Design

Your project begins with a no-obligation consultation with a dedicated Solar Advocate. We review your home or business, electricity usage, property conditions and solar goals, then consider the local permitting and utility requirements that may affect the project.

If solar is a good fit, our team prepares a personalized system design. Your Solar Advocate can also help you compare the financing options currently available through third-party financial institutions.

Step 2 Site Survey

An in-house solar technician visits your property to inspect the roof or proposed installation area, electrical panel, meter and other project details.

The information collected during the site survey allows our engineering team to confirm the system design and prepare the documents needed for permitting and utility interconnection.

Step 3 Permits & Utilities

Your Solar Advocate remains your main point of contact while our operations team manages the permit and utility interconnection process.

We prepare the required applications, coordinate project documentation and work with the appropriate authorities and utility company. Once the necessary approvals are in place, your installation is added to the schedule.

Step 4 Solar Installation

Our experienced installation team arrives on the scheduled date and installs your solar-energy system according to the approved design.

The average solar installation is completed in one day. Larger or more complex projects may require additional time. We communicate the schedule before work begins and treat your home or business with care throughout the installation.

Step 5 Ready to Go!

After the system is commissioned and passes final inspection, the utility company may replace or reprogram your meter and issue Permission to Operate.

We then help you access your system-monitoring platform so you can track production. Gold Path Solar remains available for support related to your installation after the system begins generating electricity.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Experience from Start to Finish We initially hired Gold Path Solar to uninstall and reinstall our old solar panels while getting a new roof. After looking at the numbers — the output of our old panels, the fact that we had no warranty left — we decided to upgrade the entire system, adding battery backup and bi-directional charging for our EV, which can also power our whole house if needed. From the very first call through the full installation and operation of the system, the entire staff was fantastic. They were thorough, knowledgeable, and made the whole process a genuine joy to work through. It's clear they know their stuff and care about getting it right. Highly recommend Gold Path Solar for anyone considering a solar upgrade, battery backup, or EV charging setup!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Karim has been absolutely astounding!  I'm glad we had him for our rep. The system has been working very well for the first two months. I got the first full month's bill about 2 weeks ago. Our budget bill was $371. With a full month's solar activity it was $66. I know it's for the best time of the year for solar, but it means we are going to be saving money from now on.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex Durinka is our main point of contact with Gold Path Solar. He provided excellent communication and guidance throughout the whole complex process of site evaluation, permits and inspections, project financing, installation, and setting up and operating our system which is still awaiting the final Permit to Operate. He is always available to answer any questions. We had some concerns about the roof mounting for our manufactured home and Alex assured us that the installation specifications were reviewed and approved by their engineering department and that any problems would be covered under warranty. After doing some research and seeing the awards and accolades earned by Gold Path Solar as wellas reviews by other customers, I am confident that we selected the best company available for our solar system. I will update this review going forward as we use the system and see how it affects our power usage.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found Gold Path Solar wile looking for a new solar system maintainer. My original installer had gone out of business and wanted a local replacement. I am very happy with my choice and would recommend Gold Path Solar to anyone looking for a solar installation or maintenance on an Enphase system.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. TLDR: Another 5 star review for GPS and Jake in central OH! This team installed residential solar for me in March of 2025 - no issues in the first year, hence review. The quoting process was great, flexibility in planning and designing to meet my needs was fantastic, and the consistency and clarity in communication was first rate. After a year, things I've learned: 1. Electricity takes the path of least resistance, so your home consumes directly from what's producing before it hits the grid (unless battery). This makes independent monitoring more difficult. 2. Heating cables are good for clearing snow/ice from metal garage-mount solar. 3. Don't install solar over garage without accepting the risk of snow/ice.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our business had the pleasure of working with Gold Path Solar. We procured quotes from several solar contractors and Gold Path's quote was very competitive and their customer service was impressive. We worked with Alex and the Gold Path team to install a rather complex ground mount and roof mount commercial solar system at our company.  Throughout the process, the Gold Path team was very responsive, professional and we were pleased with the quality of their work. We are pleased with the finished solar project and appreciated the Gold Path's efforts to get our project to the finish line.

Solar Installations FAQ

Get clear answers to common questions about solar suitability, monthly costs, potential savings, net metering and Gold Path Solar’s service area.

Solar may be a good fit when your property has suitable roof or ground space, adequate sunlight, meaningful electricity use and financial or energy goals that align with the proposed system.

Gold Path Solar reviews your electricity usage, property conditions, local utility requirements and available installation area before recommending a personalized residential or commercial solar system.

That depends on your current electricity bill, system price, financing terms, expected production, available incentives and future utility rates.

Your Solar Advocate can compare the proposed solar payment with your current electricity costs and explain how each may change over time. Financing is provided through third-party institutions, so rates, terms, eligibility and availability vary.

Many property owners achieve significant electricity-bill savings with solar, but the amount varies by project.
Your estimated savings will depend on:

1. Electricity consumption
2. Utility rates
3. System size
4. Solar exposure
5. Expected production
6. Financing
7. Available incentives
8. Current utility credit rules

Your personalized proposal will include production and financial estimates based on the information available for your property.

Net metering is a utility billing arrangement that may provide credits for excess solar electricity your system sends to the grid. A bidirectional meter tracks electricity flowing to and from your property. The utility then applies credits according to its current rate structure and program rules. Availability, eligibility and credit values vary by utility.

Gold Path Solar installs residential and commercial solar systems throughout Ohio, Kentucky and South Carolina. Ohio is our largest market, and we also maintain a physical presence in South Carolina. Enter your ZIP code or contact our team to confirm service availability for your property.
