Smart Energy USA's Lies Keep Getting Bigger and So Do The Lawsuits

The more you research the great Smart Energy Solar, the more lies you uncovered.
Kort Potter and Barnanby Bakerintentionally withheld information from investors that Smart Energy USA had been sued by the Federal Trade Commission in the matter entitled Federal Trade Commission v. Clear Choice Solar, USA (USDC, Central District of California). In that suit, it was contended that no scientific data or studies demonstrated the panels used were made in the USA. In fact, it was alleged that the panels were manufactured in the Philippines.

Smart Energy Solar's Practice of Fraud



There is a definite pattern here. Clear Choice Solar aka Smart Energy USA, aka, Smart Energy Solar has had more than a few lawsuits filed against them. They have also promised to show proof of, and studies related, to their solar panels and failed to do so.
By simply entering the last name “Smart Energy Solar Scam” you can read about consumer horror stories on this company.

Kort Potter and Barnaby Baker's Cumulative List of Lies
The following constitutes a list of many of the representations, which were made by the owner of Clear Choice Solar, aka, Smart Energy Usa, Smart Energy Solar, that at the time they made them, they knew them to be false. This is not intended to be all-exhaustive and the Plaintiffs continue to investigate and compile the list of concealments and misrepresentations he made, which appear to be false, including but not limited to:
  • A production guarantee.
  • That they are a volume dealer for Sun Run.
  • That your home is brought up to building, electric and fire code at no cost to the home owner.
  • They created a business (SMART ENERGY USE) that has 40-60 sales reps.
  • That prospective customers get a free Kindle Fire.
  • That install will be completed within 4-6 weeks.
  • That Baker and Potter would help close sales for sales reps (not steal their commissions).
Through research done both on the message boards and for the article, all of these statements point to Smart Energy USA, and Kort Potter / Barnaby Baker being guilty as charged.

  1. I am glad to have checked this out first before calling these people. There was an offer in the mail this morning offering a "free" Kindle Fire to all qualified customers who called their number in Riverside, CA. What aroused my suspicion is the fine print which stated that the promotion was not sponsored by or affiliated with Amazon or Kindle. Solar companies have been bugging me for months with all kinds of offers. They don't seem to understand the meaning of "NO", and some of them I have found out are already in trouble with consumers and the law.
