# JoAnn Harris Solar Energy > ABOUT ME Hi, I’m JoAnn, but most people call me JoJo — and I’m the heart behind Solar with JoJo. I believe everyone deserves to understand where their energy dollars are going and what options they have to take control of their energy future. Solar can be confusing. Between electric bills, rate changes, system production, battery storage, financing, incentives, warranties, and all the industry terminology, it can be difficult to know what’s actually a good deal — or whether solar is even the right solution for you. That’s where I come in. As an independent energy consultant, I specialize in breaking solar down into language that makes sense. I help homeowners and businesses understand their energy usage, review their electric bills, evaluate solar proposals, compare system sizes and battery options, and identify the questions they should be asking before making a major investment. Most importantly, I work for YOU — not for a particular solar company or installer. Because I’m independent, I’m able to look beyond a single company’s products or sales goals and evaluate solutions from carefully selected, reputable installers and financing partners. I take the time to understand your property, your energy needs, your goals, and your budget, then help narrow down the strongest options that are appropriate for YOUR specific situation. My goal isn’t to overwhelm you with a dozen solar proposals. It’s to help you understand the best solutions worth considering and why they may — or may not — make sense for you. And today, the conversation around energy is becoming bigger than just the monthly electric bill. Grid instability, outages, extreme weather, rising electricity costs, and the growing demand being placed on our energy infrastructure have made energy resilience more important than ever. That’s why I also help my clients understand backup power and battery storage — not simply as an add-on to solar, but as a potential tool for protecting what matters most when the grid isn’t there for you. Whether you’re looking for savings, energy independence, backup power, or simply more control over your home or business, I’ll help you understand what’s possible and what makes sense for your situation. I don’t believe in putting people under pressure or selling them something simply because I can. I believe in education first. My role is to be your advocate, your resource, and your second set of eyes throughout the process — helping you ask the right questions, understand the numbers, compare your options, and feel confident about the decision you’re making. I’m especially passionate about helping communities that are often overlooked or underserved. To me, clean energy isn’t just about technology. It’s about empowerment, resilience, and creating a future where people have more control over something they depend on every single day. Whether you’re just curious about solar, need help understanding your electric bill, want a second opinion on a solar proposal, are considering battery storage, want to prepare for outages, or are ready to explore your energy options — I’m here to help you break it all down. Because you shouldn’t have to be an energy expert to make a smart energy decision. Let’s make energy make sense. ☀️ Your Energy. Your Independence. Our Commitment. — JoJo - Address: Lancaster, CA, USA - **What does a solar energy advisor do?** A solar energy advisor helps people understand how solar power, battery storage, and related clean energy options may fit their needs.
