More green waste from the Biden Administration…

According to a Fox News report, Republicans in Congress are probing President Biden’s Department of Energy after it awarded $3 billion dollars to a controversial solar energy company accused of using “predatory sales strategies” that targeted the elderly.

House Energy and Commerce Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA), and Senate Energy and Natural Resources Ranking Member John Barrasso (R-WY) have written a letter to DOE Loan Programs Office Director Jigar Shah.

“We are alarmed about recent, credible reports that Sunnova has racked up numerous consumer complaints, including those alleging troubling sales practices, such as Sunnova pressing elderly homeowners in poor health to sign long-term contracts costing tens of thousands of dollars,” they wrote to Shah.

“These reports cite interviews with individuals who struggled to deal with large contracts that their elderly parents signed shortly before passing away as well as state consumer complaints alleging maintenance delays and predatory sales strategies,” the letter continued.

Sunnova currently has an “F” rating from the Better Business Bureau for  “deceptive sales practices,” poor customer service and repair technicians not arriving on schedule.

…and the Biden Administration just handed them $3 billion dollars.

“To this date, despite countless phone calls, we still have not received service for that part almost 5 months later,” one complaint filed in October with the Better Business Bureau states. “Our panels have not been working, therefore we are not receiving any benefit for them given that we are not receiving any credit with our electrical company due to them not working. We have tried over 100 times to call and work with the company to get them fixed.”

“Our solar system (Sunova) [sic] has not been working properly for 4+ months,” another October complaint states. “We have contacted Sunova [sic] multiple times with little to no action. Our contract states that Sunova [sic] will monitor our system and if there is an issue will fix in a timely manner. We have been fighting with this company for months to fix our system with no success. We have paid over a thousand dollars for electricity to national grid since our system isn’t working. Sunova [sic] is in breach of contract.”

Did the Biden Administration research Sunnova and it’s poor and deceptive business practices? Or is this just another example of Biden’s Green Energy Agenda run amok?
