Lexington homeowners were targeted by solar dealers during Kentucky's emerging clean energy market. Moxie Solar operated in the Lexington area before closing in 2023. Kentucky's Consumer Protection Act and the FTC Cooling-Off Rule provide legal remedies. Kentucky's relatively low electricity rates also mean that many solar savings projections were materially inaccurate from the start.
Thousands of homeowners across Lexington signed solar contracts after being promised dramatic savings — only to find themselves locked into agreements with escalating payments, underperforming systems, and no clear exit. If you are one of them, you have legal options.
Kentucky's Consumer Protection Act prohibits deceptive acts in commerce, including misrepresentation of solar savings, government incentives, and system performance. The FTC Cooling-Off Rule applies to all door-to-door solar sales. Kentucky's relatively low LG&E/KU rates mean that many solar savings projections were materially inaccurate — dealers who promised dramatic savings without disclosing Kentucky's low-rate environment may have engaged in material misrepresentation.
Lexington's strong sun exposure made it an attractive market on paper, but Kentucky's low LG&E/KU rates mean the payback period for solar is much longer than in high-rate states. Dealers frequently failed to disclose this reality.
Most people have their solar canceled and still get to keep their equipment.
