  • ESP PPE Bonus: Utility Bills
    Oct 4 2023

    A second "Bonusode" of the Energy Service Partners Proper Project Expectations Podcast just for you! This week, we cover another frequently-asked question that our Warranty team handles - why is a solar customer still receiving a Utility Bill? It's vital to help your customers understand how they are billed by the utility and that they'll still be charged some fees, especially if they start to consume more power than the solar is designed to produce. Give it a listen for some important selling tips to help us create even more great homeowner experiences!

    California is still the best place in the country to sell solar - if you know how. If you want to become a partner of ESP, head over to our website today at ⁠⁠www.joinesp.com⁠⁠ and sign up.
