Lease/PPA

Power Purchase Agreement

 Lower your electric bill

 No up-front costs

 No installation fees

Set monthly payments

Third party system owner

Transferable to new home owner

With a solar lease or Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), a third party covers the cost of the equipment and installation. Instead of owning the system, you simply pay for the power it produces — often at a predictable, lower rate than your current utility.

Loan

Solar Loan

 $0 Down

Generate your own power

Pay nothing for power produced

Monthly payments for loan

Additional incentives may apply

System and power are owned

A solar loan works much like a traditional bank loan or mortgage — often with competitive interest rates and flexible, extended terms. This option allows you to own your solar system from day one while spreading the cost into manageable payments.

Purchase

Ownership

Generate your own solar power

Pay nothing for produced power

Protection from utility rate hikes

You pay the full system cost

System and power are owned

When you purchase your solar system outright, you own it from day one — and the power it produces is yours at no additional cost. That means once it’s installed, you can enjoy clean energy without monthly payments to a lender or third party.

What is a Power Purchase Agreement? (PPA)

A PPA lets you enjoy the benefits of solar with no upfront investment. A third party owns and maintains the system on your roof, and you simply pay for the power it produces at a fixed, predictable rate — turning an unpredictable electric bill into steady monthly savings.


A PPA is ideal for homeowners who want the benefits of solar without the upfront cost or long-term financing.
