Protect Your Wallet: Red Flags to Watch in Solar Contracts

Solar is booming, but not all contracts deliver the promised savings. A recent Daily Scanner article highlights critical warnings every homeowner should know.

Key Red Flags:

Escalator Clauses: Many leases and PPAs lock in 3–5% annual rate increases. Over 20–25 years, these can eliminate your savings and cost you far more than rising utility rates.
High Early Termination Fees: Steep penalties can trap you in a bad deal for decades — especially problematic when selling your home or refinancing.

Quote from Josie Garcia, COO at Solar Equity Solutions: “Reviewing your contract with an eye for red flags will ensure you get the savings you are expecting.”

At Solar Equity Solutions, we help homeowners review contracts and cancel unfair solar agreements. Don’t sign until you understand the fine print.
