When we talk to prospective customers about microgrids, they have always already used HOMER.

We use HOMER for all of the tender packages we distribute and require that project proposals include their HOMER model.

We spent a lot of money developing our own model, but threw it away because everyone kept asking for our HOMER results.

HOMER has become a staple in our program's integrated energy planning course.

I have been using HOMER, Legacy version and now Pro, for the better part of two years. Its GUI is powerful, sleek, and has a great balance between flexibility and simplicity. I’ve been trying to spread the word, as I do think it’s the best software that I know of.

We are amazed at both the thoroughness of the software and the design complexity that it allows us to relatively quickly evaluate. To our knowledge, there is no other software on the market that matches HOMER for the purpose of designing renewable energy systems.

Before we used HOMER we created our own spreadsheets, but they became so complicated that no one trusted them and we ended up just installing diesels.

I'm creating a comparative database of PV design software in cooperation with Sharp (Japan) Corporation's Ecological Technology Development Center in Nara, Japan. I've found HOMER to be incredibly robust and the best application available for system comparison among the 15 or so programs covered.

HOMER is a unique tool that provides a depth of analysis simply impossible by any other means at my disposal.

Your program rocks! HOMER has replaced about a dozen spreadsheets and countless tables. Thanks for the great program.

You guys have created a very powerful tool - I’m new to the MicroGrid world - so HOMER is a great help. I recommend HOMER to everyone I meet!

I would like to commend you and your team for developing one of the most important tools in furthering the viability of renewable energy technologies.

[W]e are very impressed with they way HOMER performs and the ease with which the outcomes can be interpreted and compared. The combination of flexible system building & modelling tools and the comprehensive financial engine makes HOMER an outstanding piece of software. Congratulations, you truly have made an excellent contribution to the growth of the renewable energy industry.

HOMER is fast, requires simple inputs, is easy to use, reliable (doesn't lock up), provides a wealth of data, and makes decisions by prospective RE system owners simpler with easy to understand data.

I just wanted to express my complete satisfaction with HOMER. Congratulations on creating such a useful tool.

I wanted to thank you for the years of effort that you've spent on building and perfecting HOMER. It has played a major part in my career from which I've gained some credibility. And I'm a firm believer of sharing from success stories so that future achievements can be shared by all... Thanks again for a job well done.

I find the technical support for HOMER is always speedy and helpful. It's one of the aspects of this tool that I find invaluable...

HOMER is a beautiful thing...it does most everything you could want it to, and it actually presents results in an intuitive/understandable manner.

Congratulations for HOMER. Very useful and simple to use in the context of Rural Africa.

We find the program easy to use and straightforward and it has been great help in sorting out myriad possibilities. HOMER presents results in a clear and concise manner, making decisions easy.

HOMER allows simple apples to apples comparisons of drastically different system designs. It convinced me of the utility of wind power in my situation. It taught me the importance of a properly sized battery bank. It has provided me with the data to convince most of the stakeholders of the importance of switching from a gasoline generator to a generator/battery/renewable system.

Very easy to use and analytically powerful. I was able to get a simple system up and running quickly so that I could learn by doing.

We make great use of the HOMER tool. We have been designing solar only [telecom] sites for many years and recently started adding wind to help during winter storms. Before using HOMER we had no predictable way to evaluate the contribution from the wind turbine.

I have just started to use HOMER and have found it fantastic. It is very easy to use, the getting started manual is excellent and the range of different types of outputs makes demonstrating the theoretical application of RE technology very easy.

I'm really happy with your software! I find it a very good tool for understanding hybrid systems and their optimization - very user-friendly interfaces.

I must say that, you guys are really incredible. You have helped me solve and lighten my workload problems in a faster and more efficient way.

Northern Power Systems has been using the results of HOMER, for several years now. It is a unique and valuable tool for our core business. HOMER represents the state-of-the-art for analysis of these applications.

I recently downloaded HOMER for review purposes and have found if to be an excellent program. Now I'm using it for a real project, designing small energy systems for remote homes in Sweden.
