How it works

Three steps. You decide at each one.

  1. See if you qualify

    Fill in the form in a minute. For California homeowners only.

  2. A free conversation

    An advisor from your area calls you, reviews your bill and your roof, and explains what you would pay with solar.

  3. Installation, if it suits you

    A licensed installer handles your city’s permit and installs the system with no upfront cost.

In your evaluation we review:

  • Your 12 months of usage
  • Sun and shade on your roof
  • Lease or PPA
  • What you would pay, compared with today

Your savings

How much will you save? We work it out together, with your bill.

We don’t give you a number before we see your bill. Your savings are the difference between what you pay today and what you would pay with solar.

Today

Your power bill$ a month

With solar

Program payment$ a month

+ Power you still buy from the grid$ a month

The difference is your savings. It depends on your usage, the sun on your roof, your rate and the program. If it doesn’t suit you, we tell you.

Solar lease

You rent the system

You pay a monthly rent for the equipment on your roof, as set in your contract. No upfront cost.

Solar PPA

You pay for the energy

You pay only for the energy your system produces, at a per-kWh rate set in your contract. No upfront cost.

Both programs are subject to approval. The exact terms are in writing before you sign. There is no dollar savings guarantee.

Questions

What people ask us most

How much does installing the system cost?

With a Lease or PPA you pay nothing upfront: the system is installed with no upfront cost. What you pay each month depends on the program and your approval.

How much will I save?

It depends on your usage, your roof, your rate and the program. We do not give a number before reviewing your bill: we work it out with you in your free evaluation.

Do I need good credit?

Lease and PPA programs go through an approval. Your advisor tells you whether you qualify during your call.

What if my roof is not suitable?

We check it in the free evaluation, before confirming any installation.

How long does installation take?

It depends on the system size and your city’s permit. Your advisor gives you the schedule in writing.

What if I sell my home?

Lease and PPA contracts can usually be transferred to the new owner. Your advisor explains the options in your contract.
