A North Carolina solar power company now bankrupt after multiple complaints had a Chapter 7 hearing Wednesday.

Pink Energy shut down unexpectedly last month.

Some customers say their panels did not work and others said they didn’t see the cost savings that the company promised them.

CEO Jason Waller blames the company’s downfall on one of its parts suppliers, Generac.

Generac denies it.

Pink Energy is suing the company for more than $1 billion.

Customers will be able to file claims at some point, but not yet.
