I live in Phoenix and a lot of people have been turned off on solar in general for their home because a lot of the companies are aggressive and shady. Seems like a missed opportunity for Tesla to have stepped in to be a "reliable" solar company simply by pricing competitively and not going out of business a year after installation.
- dexterdog 4y agoIf Tesla could have been reliable in comparison the other solar companies must be pretty bad.
- nathancahill 4y agoThey're aggressive and shady (pun intended?) because of government tax breaks that mess with the natural economics of the market. It's become a cash grab by installers to sign up as many people as they can to move money from state coffers to their bank accounts.
- _ea1k 4y agoTesla's solar business was started by purchasing one of the most aggressive and shady outfits in the business. SolarCity was a mess.
- caeril 4y agoThat's one reason I did my own build myself. It's a pretty trivial matter for the average high-IQ HNer to spec, design, and build. The "hardest" part is understanding and adhering to the construction codes, and dealing with inspection bullshit.
