Who handles Moxie Solar accounts now
Moxie Solar no longer operates. True Solar, a company started by Moxie's former chief operating officer, took over about 65 former Moxie customers' installations, but it is a separate company. Other customers should hire a licensed installer for service and contact the company that bills them about any loan. Equipment warranties remain with the manufacturers.
What it means for homeowners
- Moxie went through a Wisconsin state court receivership, not a federal bankruptcy, and the reported claim deadline was April 24, 2023.
- Customers in the receivership are unsecured creditors, and some reported receiving nothing.
- If you financed your system, keep paying your lender; Moxie's closure does not cancel the loan.
- True Solar and other Iowa installers have worked on former Moxie systems, but none is Moxie's legal successor.
