WHY SO MANY HI SOLAR CONTRACTS GO WRONG

HECO closed its original net metering program to new applicants in 2015 and replaced it with programs that offer significantly lower compensation for solar exports. Many homeowners were sold systems based on pre-2015 net metering rates, resulting in savings that never materialized. Hawaii's high electricity rates made the savings pitch extremely compelling, leading to aggressive sales tactics.
