I have recently signed on with CitizenRe and just wanted to make a couple points.

Maintenance and upgrades are part of the plan, so as the technology gets better, you will benefit from that.

If power goes down dramatically in price, at most, you will be out your deposit and or removal fee should you decide to get out of the contract (compared to still paying for, or owning an outdated system should you buy instead).

They are not available to everyone. For instance, those people who pay too low of an energy price for CitizenRe to compete.

The plan is to only provide you with up to the amount of power you need so you are not paying CitizenRe for more then you need and losing the credits earned from your power company.

Be aware, I do not know everything about this company, nor will I pretend I know what their plans for the future are, but hopefully what I wrote will answer some of your questions.
