⚠ SOLAR CONTRACT TRAP — DENVER, CO

CANCEL YOUR SOLAR CONTRACT
IN DENVER, CO

Denver's solar market grew rapidly between 2018 and 2023, driven by Xcel Energy's net metering program and Colorado's strong renewable energy incentives. But Xcel's net metering changes and the complexity of Colorado's solar financing landscape have left many Denver homeowners with agreements that do not deliver the promised savings. Colorado law provides strong consumer protection remedies.

CO STATE LAW IS ON YOUR SIDE

Denver homeowners are protected by the Colorado Consumer Protection Act (C.R.S. § 6-1-105), which prohibits deceptive trade practices in connection with the sale of any goods or services. The Act allows consumers to recover actual damages, up to three times actual damages for bad-faith conduct, and attorney's fees. Colorado also has a 3-day cancellation right for home solicitation sales under C.R.S. § 5-3-403. The Colorado AG has authority to investigate and prosecute solar companies for deceptive practices.

WHY SO MANY CO SOLAR CONTRACTS GO WRONG

Denver's solar market was built on Xcel Energy's relatively favorable net metering program. When Xcel reduced its net metering rates in 2022, the savings projections that homeowners were sold became less accurate. Colorado's hail risk — one of the highest in the country — also creates warranty and performance issues that were often not addressed in the sales process. Sales companies that sold solar using pre-change projections without disclosing the regulatory risk were making materially misleading representations.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS — DENVER, CO

Can I cancel my Denver solar contract because of Xcel's net metering changes?+

Possibly yes. If your savings projections were based on pre-2022 Xcel net metering rates, and the salesperson did not disclose the regulatory risk, that may constitute a deceptive trade practice under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act. A contract review can assess whether this applies to your situation.

What if my Denver solar system was damaged by hail?+

Hail damage coverage depends on your contract and homeowner's insurance. Solar panels are generally covered under homeowner's insurance as part of the home's structure. If the solar company is not responding to warranty claims for hail damage, that may be a breach of contract.

What are my options for getting out of a solar loan in Denver?+

Options include paying off the loan balance, refinancing at better terms, or challenging the loan based on TILA violations or misrepresentation. A free case review can identify which options apply to your specific loan and circumstances.

How do I know if my solar savings projections were realistic?+

Compare your actual utility bills before and after solar installation. If your total costs (solar payment plus remaining Xcel bill) are higher than your pre-solar Xcel bill, the projections were not accurate. A contract review can determine whether the inaccuracy was due to misrepresentation or changed circumstances.
