THE RIVERSIDE SOLAR PROBLEM

Thousands of homeowners across Riverside 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.

TOP COMPLAINTS WE SEE IN RIVERSIDE

CA STATE LAW IS ON YOUR SIDE

Riverside homeowners benefit from California's CLRA, UCL, and Home Solicitation Sales Act. PACE loan regulations require specific disclosures and provide cancellation rights. Under California law, a contract obtained through material misrepresentation can be rescinded, and attorney's fees are recoverable under the CLRA.

WHY SO MANY CA SOLAR CONTRACTS GO WRONG

Riverside's high SCE rates and abundant sunshine made solar an easy sell. NEM 3.0 changes in April 2023 reduced export credits by up to 75%, making pre-NEM 3.0 savings projections inaccurate. The Inland Empire also attracted many smaller solar installers with aggressive sales tactics and limited post-installation support.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS — RIVERSIDE, CA

How did NEM 3.0 affect my Riverside solar contract?+

NEM 3.0 reduced the credit SCE pays for excess solar production by up to 75%. If your savings projections were based on NEM 2.0 rates, those projections are now materially inaccurate.

What is a PACE loan and why is it a problem in Riverside?+

A PACE loan is secured by your property and appears on your title. It can prevent you from refinancing and complicates home sales. If you were not clearly informed your solar financing was a PACE loan, you may have a disclosure violation claim.

Can I cancel a solar contract in Riverside, California?+

Yes. California's CLRA and UCL provide strong remedies. A free case review identifies whether misrepresentation, TILA violations, or disclosure failures apply to your situation.

What should I do if my Riverside solar company went out of business?+

Contact the financing company directly. File complaints with the California AG, CPUC, and CFPB. The financing company may have liability even if the installer is gone.
