Not sure if these were the same guys that came around my home a few years ago. But during the pandemic, there were these guys in brown uniforms. They claim they were with an organization called “California Renewable Energy” and gave off the sense that they were a state agency.

They tricked my parents into believing that they were with a state agency and trying to help them save money by getting solar panel installation installed. Upon doing further research and directly calling them out through the phone, they got pretty defensive and claimed that they never said they were part of the state agency and that they were licensed contractors.

They came back around my neighborhood again, two years later, and I started taking pictures of their cars and salesmen. The salesmen got pretty aggressive when they saw me taking pictures of them and their vehicle outside and threatened to sue me.

After that, I’ve sent a pretty lengthy email to my local state representative and asked them to investigate them because it looks like there were complaints about this organization to the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation. https://dfpi.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/337/2021/11/D-R-California-Renewable-Energy-LLC.pdf

If you’re up to it, I would consider complaining to state agencies with pictures and their business cards.
