⚠ SOLAR CONTRACT TRAP — CHARLESTON, WV

CANCEL YOUR SOLAR CONTRACT
IN CHARLESTON, WV

Charleston homeowners were targeted by solar dealers during West Virginia's emerging clean energy market. Moxie Solar and Encor Solar both operated in the Charleston area before closing, and out-of-state dealers used high-pressure door-to-door tactics throughout Kanawha County. West Virginia's Consumer Credit and Protection Act provides legal remedies for homeowners who were misled about savings, system performance, or financing terms.

WV STATE LAW IS ON YOUR SIDE

West Virginia's Consumer Credit and Protection Act (WVCCPA) prohibits unfair or deceptive acts in consumer transactions, including misrepresentation of solar savings, government incentives, and system performance. The FTC Cooling-Off Rule applies to all door-to-door solar sales. West Virginia's AG has received solar fraud complaints from the Charleston area, particularly regarding Moxie Solar and Encor Solar's operations.

WHY SO MANY WV SOLAR CONTRACTS GO WRONG

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS — CHARLESTON, WV

What solar companies went out of business in Charleston, WV?+
Moxie Solar (closed 2023) and Encor Solar (closed 2022) were both active in the Charleston area. If either sold your system, your lender (GoodLeap, Mosaic) may be liable under West Virginia's WVCCPA.
Can I cancel my solar contract in West Virginia if my dealer is out of business?+
Yes. When a dealer closes, liability can shift to the lender under the WVCCPA if the lender facilitated the deceptive sale. We've pursued successful cancellations in West Virginia by holding lenders accountable for their dealer networks.
My Charleston dealer said the tax credit would pay down my loan — is that true?+
No. This is one of the most common misrepresentations in West Virginia. The federal ITC reduces your income tax liability — it does not automatically reduce your loan balance. If your dealer told you otherwise, that is actionable under the WVCCPA.
