    I purchased a Solar System through Green Day Power in 2021 and 2022. Currently my system is not working. The parts needed are covered under the manufacture warranty however the labor is not. I am looking to have the money i have to come out of pocket with reimbursed. Since the company has gone out of business (the installers) I would like to somehow get information on possibly contacting someone to get a reimbursement or file a case against them.

    Given that Green Day Power hasn't responded to a BBB complaint in six months and may not even be in business I don't expect any action or satisfactory resolution but filing for the record.Signed a contract with Green Day Power in late September *********************************************************************************** November. Scheduled the install for December, had to reschedule twice to first week of January. When they came to install, the designs they had drawn up and had approved were not up to code so it wasn't possible to install the whole system; they could only install the solar panels on the roof. After much back and forth and design revision, they returned the week of February 19th to install the batteries and other interior components. We're been at a standstill since and my system still isn't operational after 6+ months. Eventually on June 5th, they did have the city of Walnut Creek perform a permit inspection which turned up a few issues. They were supposed to remedy these on June 10th but the contractor didn't show and they've made no effort to find someone else. Emails and texts have not been returned. From what I can tell on LinkedIn they did mass layoffs earlier in the year and may not have any employees left to do solar work.

    We had our solar panels installed in 2021 by Green Day Solar in **************,**. This January there was a roof leak after a couple of storms. We contacted them and initially declined to fix it until I contacted the contractor licensing board. A third party contractor fixed the roof leak. Upon the repair we were told that there were ***** roof tiles that need replacement because they were broken, I asked the third party to relay my concern to the solar company and was told they were not responsible for the damages. I asked if they can provide me a proof like pictures but they failed to do it. We have a 10 year roof warranty after the solar installation and would like to have them fix it.

    Installed a generator. In October, they determined there is a leak in the engine. On October 19, 2024 they sent me an email that the replacement was approved and would reach out in 2-4 weeks to get the replacement scheduled. Since then I have made multiple attempts to contact them about the replacement and they have not responded to phone calls nor to emails.

    They installed solar panels, which have a lifetime warranty. There is a leak in my ceiling and my solar panels have stopped generating energy. I called the manufacturer and they report Green Day Power is responsible. I have been calling Green Day for two weeks and no one is answering.

    Green Day Power has not turned on my solar panels. The solar panels were installed over a year ago. They have failed to have any contact with me at all. I have not even started the inspection process. They have not replied to any emails or any voicemails I have left. I have escalated the problem with ******** Financial, they have gotten an answer from they subcontracted the job out but wont give them any more information since they are not the property owners. Yet, they will not contact me. The number is no longer working and is just a dial tone.

Thank you for your time.**************

    I have two problems with Green Day power: Company continues to ignore my emails and voice messages therefore am unable to get resolution. First problem is company will not follow through with pg&e application, which required correction and documentation. Pg&e requested correction on January 22, 2024. Installation of battery was done in early December 2023. Second issue is minor but still unresolved. On the day of Installation of battery two structures were damaged and need replacement. I took pictures and sent them to company on 3 occasions.

    Hello,I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out to seek your assistance regarding a concerning issue we're experiencing with our solar panel system. Despite our numerous attempts to contact our solar panel installer, Green Day Power, they have been unresponsive, leaving us in a difficult situation.We completed the installation of our solar panel system at our residence located at *************************************************************************, back in June 2023, after signing our closing documents in February of the same year. We paid the full amount of $28,008 for the system, expecting reliable service as per our contractual agreement with Green Day Power.Unfortunately, we've encountered challenges since the installation process, particularly during the inspection stages conducted by PG&E. Green Day Power's initial installation and subsequent revisions did not meet the recommended guidelines, resulting in two unsuccessful inspections. Despite our persistent attempts to communicate with Green Day Power, they only made necessary modifications to the system in January 2024.Following these modifications, we reached out to Green Day Power to schedule the final inspection with PG&E, but they have been completely unresponsive to our communications. We were left with no choice but to arrange the final inspection ourselves to ensure compliance with all requirements for NEM 2.0. Additionally, we recently discovered that Green Day Power is no longer in business, which explains their lack of support in facilitating communication with PG&E.Currently, our solar panels are not functioning correctly, and the accompanying app prompts us to contact Green Day Power for assistance. My wife and I are understandably stressed about this situation and would greatly appreciate your guidance and support in resolving this issue. Thank you for your assistance.Best regards,******

    Hello we purchased and signed off on contract with full payment with Green Day Power on 03/13/2023. We've been trying to reach them to finish the job with ****** and for them to give us access to the app and no one has been able to get reached. We've tried calling and leaving messaged in all locations and no one has reached back. I finally found the owner ******************* on ******** and sent him a message, however he replied with he has not been the owner of Green Day Power since 2022. I need someone to reach out to me to complete the job. This is urgent!
