DON’T BE DECEIVED BY SOLAR SCAMS

DAVID VONDRAN, CEO/GENERAL MANAGER

Conventional wisdom says that if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Yet, every day, solar companies attempt to mislead our members with promises too good to be true. Often, these sales tactics target elderly and low-income members.

Collectively, the Electric Cooperatives of Arkansas are one of the state’s largest net metering utilities, and we’re big fans of solar. However, we’re not fans of third-party solar or other companies using slick sales tactics to deceive our members.

HERE ARE SOME RED FLAGS TO LOOK FOR:

IF YOU’RE STILL INTERESTED IN SOLAR, PLEASE:

If you see a misleading solar ad or are approached by an aggressive door-to-door solar salesperson, don’t fall for their scams! File a consumer complaint with the Arkansas Attorney General’s office by calling 800-482-8982 or by emailing consumer@ArkansasAG.gov.
