This person is not "selling" anything in the sense that he's not offering any paperwork or contracts or pressing you into signing any agreements BUT, he is pressuring you into giving him some available appointments times SHOULD we get a call back from the company (I assume that's Freedom Pro), which may or may not happen depending upon whether they think they can produce enough energy from our specific location.
From what I could gather, all we get from letting them fill our roof with panels is some offer to lock in a lower rate. It didn't sound to me like we own any of the juice they produce. That goes back via the bi-directional meter, to SECO, and Freedom gets that money. We just get a slightly better rate on the juice we use.
That's what I think. I haven't seen any paperwork, and I am expecting a call back, but I'm not sure I want to even spend the time.

Exactly my experience when a young man rang our doorbell to explain solar. Very nice and cordial young man.
