By Michael R.August 28, 2022Install solar system$30,000
We purchased a 4KW solar system with a 10KW LG battery. Initially Coastal Solar worked with us to design the system we wanted. The installers were professional and did a good job. At this point we were very happy with Coastal Solar and we even recommended them to friends who were interested in getting solar systems.
Now we're not so happy because, more than six months later, Coastal Solar has not completed our SGIP application. SGIP is a state incentive program that provides a rebate for the backup battery. There is a limited supply of funds for this program so it is important to get the application submitted in a timely manner.
The vendor, not the owner, has to submit the SGIP application. Shortly after the install an employee started the application process. Unfortunately he was re-assigned to the field before he could finish and there was no hand-off to someone else.
My point of contact is Matt Reige. I called, texted and emailed Matt numerous times and over 6 months later our SGIP has still not been submitted. If I could I'd do it myself, but the vendor has to submit the application.
Finally I threatened to leave a negative online review if my SGIP was not submitted by the end of the week. On Wednesday Matt called me and promised that it would be submitted by Friday. As you can probably guess by this review my SGIP is still sitting on Matt's desk.
Our initial happiness has turned into a negative experience.

UPDATE 4: 09/23/2022 I received confirmation this morning that my SGIP application was received by SCE. The app still needs to pass SCE review.
UPDATE 3: 09/20/2022 A third week has passed and my SGIP has still not been submitted.
UPDATE 2: A second week has passed since posting a negative review and our SGIP has still not been submitted.
UPDATE 1: One week after posting this review there is no progress towards getting my SGIP submitted. Apparently not even a bad online review will inspire them towards improving their customer service.
