West Coast Solar – Joe Molale

#028 – Today’s episode is the second in a 2 part series on home solar. I went solar with a back-up battery in 2021 and am SO GLAD I did.  I got a small check back from PG&E after my 1st year.  I want to introduce you to 2 of the solar professionals I met on my journey – Mark Lauer and Joe Molale.  

If you’re starting from ground zero like I was, it probably feels a little overwhelming.  I get asked a lot about my panels and my experience.  I want to share with you the guys that educated me the most.  We focus on many of the questions I had plus the ones I saw on Nextdoor.  My hope is to save you time in your process by sharing the issues that I found most important on my journey.

Both Mark and Joe were extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and patient.  Most importantly, they continued to work with me and educate me with no certainty of a sale.   

Today’s discussion is with Joe.  Joe works for West Coast Solar.  I actually bought my system from him.  Joe says the top 5 reasons his customers go solar are:

1 Save Money

2 Helps the Environment

3 Rising PG&E rates

4 Increase the value of your home

5 Taking control of your future energy costs

With respect to picking a company, Joe says, 

“I tell people with solar, it’s not like cable television, you can’t just switch companies.  You are stuck with them for, for life. If the panels go out and they’re outta business, guess what, you’re on your own….”

Be sure to stick around until the end to hear about how buying solar from Joe helps build water wells in India and Africa.
