An intentionally small business that ensures personal attention to your project.
Meet The #1 Residential Solar Contractor In Wisconsin
A Local Solar Energy Team Designed to Support You
One of the reasons Home Team Energy exists is because we saw what was happening in a rapidly expanding solar industry. When companies get big, their teams balloon and customer service becomes standardized (and, too often, substandard).
Your energy situation is unique to you, and that means your service should be too.
That’s what we mean by an “intentionally small business.” If we’re so big that our owner, Ryan Lettau, can’t personally meet with you—we’re too big. This way, we can tailor our services to your exact needs so you never feel unsupported before, during, and after the process of upgrading to solar energy.
Why Choose Home Team Energy?
We Do Everything With Integrity and Pride
We Are Your Locally Owned and Operated Solar Experts
We Prioritize Your Care and Our Team’s Safety
Meet Ryan Lettau, Owner of Home Team Energy
Ryan established Home Team Energy in 2019 after a decade of experience in the solar energy industry. After graduating from Milwaukee School of Engineering in 2008 with a degree in Architectural Engineering, Ryan first worked for a roof consulting company where he incorporated solar into the existing business model.
After that, he moved on to a solar development company in 2010 and saw how rapid expansion led to a collapse in attention. Larger teams with more jobs over a larger region meant less time per client.
So in 2019, with a garage full of solar panels, Ryan started a family business called Home Team Energy. His wife Shelly worked with permitting and logistics, and his young sons help with clean-up and washing the trucks. Together, they began a company designed to maximize support and service for their clients.
After seeing how businesses can focus more on profits over people, Ryan—and now the team too—is on a mission to show that hard work, integrity, and treating people with dignity and respect should be the real focus of a successful business.
In 2022, the Lettau Family added a Tesla Model Y to their fleet, which is powered by their roof mounted solar array!

Nothing but good things to say about Home Team. I had initial reservations going off of feedback from friends and family on their solar install with competing companies. So glad I found Home Team as the installation could not have gone better. It was quick, clean, and extremely professional. The owner, project manager, and installation crew were all professional, thorough, courteous, and responsive. The installation could not have gone any better. Thank you Home Team.

Home Team Energy Company recently installed solar panels on our roof. Ryan promptly answered all of our questions and concerns. The installers were professional and friendly. When the WI Electric inspector commissioned our system he remarked that Home Team Energy did a great job on installation.

Home Team Energy just completed a solar installation for us and we are super impressed with the final product. This was a larger system and the crew was in and out in 3 days with a clean and tidy installation. We're happy to be producing some of our own power and glad Home Team Energy was willing to work with us. Definitely give Ryan a call if you are looking for a solar project.

Outstanding customer service! Even though Home Team Energy was not the company that installed my panels, Ryan took my call and spent many minutes with me to answer questions and give advice. If I could go back in time, Home Team would have been my solar panel company.

We had a wonderful experience with Home Team Energy. The team installed solar panels on our house and installed an electric car hookup in our garage. The entire process was seamless and they explained everything in layman's terms so that I could understand what they were doing (I'm no electrician)! The installation team really took care to respect our home and cleaned up after themselves. They went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Ryan and his team for all of your electrical needs!

We first met Ryan when we moved to Milwaukee and he worked for someone else, adding solar panels to an existing home. Ryan had moved on and so had we to the suburbs of Milwaukee building a home with solar panels included. When we felt like we needed more panels, I called Ryan because other quote was to swap out panels for more productive ones and that was going to cost a lot. I called Ryan for a quote, when he got to the house he spent about 10 seconds looking at our roof and said he could just add 7 more panels and the cost would be 1/2 other companies quote. Installation was completed on December 31, just in time for tax season. His crew was professional and timely and the cost/kWh of additional power was right about what we were hoping for.
