The Verdict

Green Energy Team operates a relentless telemarketing operation that reviewers call a scam. We analyzed over a hundred reviews and found zero positive mentions of sales conduct or post-sale support. One reviewer reported a dozen calls per day to his business line, another tallied dozens per week to her personal phone, and a third kept a tally of calls from spoofed numbers across multiple area codes. The company ignores do-not-call requests. When a telemarketer does reach someone, the pitch involves deceptive scripts. Three reviewers described being told they'd 'won' a solar system or qualified for a government energy program, then endured multi-hour high-pressure presentations with prices climbing to $27,000 before manufactured 'discounts' brought them down to $20,000. One elderly homeowner was charged over $10,000 to blow insulation into an attic, ten times what her neighbor paid for the same work elsewhere. We found one workmanship compliment buried among complaints about fake addresses and offshore call centers staffed by people reading phonetically from scripts.

If you value your time and sanity, block this number. The few homeowners who let a rep into their house describe bait-and-switch pricing on overpriced installations, and the company has no functional customer service once the contract is signed.

3 Stories That Stood Out

1. John G
BBB | Aug 29, 2024 |

John G already had solar panels when his phone began ringing dozens of times a week with callers from Green Energy Group asking about his electric bill. He told the first ten callers that he already had solar, yet the calls continued. When he tried to reach the company directly, he found no working phone number and a listed address that looked possibly fake. The most striking detail was the persistence despite his clear answer, combined with unreachable contact information, which left him frustrated.

2. Frances D.
Yelp | Jun 19, 2016 |

Frances D. answered a cold call about government help for her electric bill and asked for mailed information; when the representative offered to stop by since he was “in the area” and it would only take a few minutes, she agreed. The visit stretched into nearly three hours. The salesperson’s analysis of the roof and energy needs proved accurate, and the proposed solar array plus an attic heat shield sounded technically solid — the pitch promised she wouldn’t be paying FPL anymore but would instead pay the Green Energy Team about the same monthly amount, with no money down. The sticker shock came next: the full package started at about $27,000. When she pushed back, the rep staged a phone call to manufacture a “commercial discount,” dropping the price to $22,000 and then $20,000. A supposed government program only reduced the cost by roughly $4,000 and required a separate application with a wait of a couple years. She liked the salesperson’s energy, but she hadn’t planned to buy and wanted time to compare other companies. A final practical worry sealed her decision: financing the work would create a lien on the house — that $20,000 would follow the property if they ever sold. What l

3. K W.
Yelp | Dec 9, 2015 |

K W. watched an elderly neighbor be quoted north of $10,000 to have blown-in attic insulation installed on what should have been a routine job. They discovered the same work cost about $600 at their own house, so the huge price gap felt like a clear rip-off. The situation unfolded with the company getting the neighbor to sign a contract and then dramatically increasing the price, a practice K W. branded dishonest and akin to a scam. They gave the company one star, and the detail that will stick with prospective buyers is the more-than-tenfold disparity—over $10,000 versus roughly $600—and the allegation that prices were hiked after a contract was signed.

2. CHRIS S
BBB | Oct 22, 2024 |

Chris S grew increasingly frustrated after a string of unsolicited calls landed on his business phone about installing solar. He repeatedly told a representative who appeared not to speak English that his company doesn’t need solar, but the calls kept coming. He called the operation a scam and walked away feeling the language barrier made it impossible to stop the outreach or resolve the issue. The detail that sticks: despite clear refusals on a business line, the solicitations continued, leaving him annoyed and unmoved.

3. John G
BBB | Aug 29, 2024 |

John G already had solar panels when his phone began ringing dozens of times a week with callers from Green Energy Group asking about his electric bill. He told the first ten callers that he already had solar, yet the calls continued.

1. Angel S.
Yelp | Nov 1, 2016 |

Angel hired Green Energy Team to install a hybrid water heater, an Elite attic radiant shield and two solar attic fans on their home. They found the crew efficient — the installations moved along quickly and professionally, completed with minimal fuss. The sales representative stood out as especially knowledgeable and courteous, which smoothed decision-making and interactions. The most memorable part of the job was that combination of speed and a reassuring, informed salesperson, which left them satisfied with how the project unfolded.

2. Melissa C
BBB | Nov 18, 2024 |

Melissa C found both her business and personal phones ringing non-stop. She experienced a flood of incoming calls and gave the company one star — the persistent, nonstop contact on two separate lines is the issue that stood out.

3. Daryn S
BBB | Sep 25, 2024 |

Daryn S found his phone besieged by the company’s outreach — multiple numbers calling his line about one to three times a week. He asked repeatedly for his number to be removed, yet the calls kept coming. Frustrated, he left a 1-star review and an F rating, concluding it was a horrid way to grow a business. The lasting detail: even after explicit opt-out requests, he continued to receive persistent, rotating-number calls 1–3 times weekly.

03

1. Dean D
BBB | Nov 30, 2024 |

Dean D woke up to two calls from the company before 9 a.m. on a Saturday and found the outreach relentless. He discovered the calls weren't an isolated inconvenience — they even rang on Thanksgiving — and he could not get them to stop. Frustrated by the nonstop contact, he left a one-star review and decided he would never consider buying from the company. What stuck with him most was the timing: persistent calls early on a weekend and during a holiday.

2. Dave R
BBB | Oct 30, 2024 |

Dave R left a one-star review after being peppered with multiple calls a day for as long as he can remember. He endured callers using generic American names, heavy accents, and scripted lines, even though he remains on the national Do Not Call list and his spam blocker failed to stop them. Frustrated, he insisted the outreach felt like a foreign call center operation rather than contact from the company’s listed U.S. address and demanded $1,000 for each violation. So fed up that his response was to use Hindi curse words he’d picked up to drive the callers off, he made clear he won’t relent until he’s paid — that dollar-per-call demand is the detail he left readers with.

3. Brian M
BBB | Oct 2, 2024 |

Brian M experienced persistent, unwanted phone contact from this company and discovered that neither of the phone numbers they listed worked. Even though he is on the National Do Not Call List, the calls continued, and he encountered a representative he identified as foreign and found rude. Frustrated, he demanded the company be shut down and left a one-star review — his core takeaway being two clear red flags: inaccurate contact information and continued harassment despite Do Not Call registration.
