Sungevity complaints and consumer resources
Sungevity was an early pioneer in remote solar design and online sales before filing for bankruptcy in 2017. The company's failure left thousands of customers with leased solar systems serviced by successor companies that many consumers had never heard of. Sungevity's collapse is frequently cited as a cautionary tale about the risks of solar leases with financially unstable companies.
