Solar Financing & Rebate Options

Financing Options

Solar Purchase

With a solar purchase, you pay up front for the entire system. 

 

Owning your system outright maximizes your ROI at the same time shields you from endless utility rate increases.  You get the benefit of the incentives and credits offered, an increase in your property value, and an amazing long-term return on your investment.

Benefits of a Solar Purchase:

  • Maximum Savings: Buying outright provides the highest long-term savings since you avoid interest and lease fees.
     

  • Incentives and Rebates: Ownership allows you to claim credits, rebates, and incentives when offered. These often lower the overall cost of your investment.
     

  • Increased Property Value: Solar ownership adds value to your home, making it an attractive feature for future buyers.

Financing Options

Solar Loan

A solar loan provides financing for those who want to own the system without a large upfront cost.

 

By providing you with a properly designed solar system and matching you with the right lender. This means your monthly payment will be significantly less than what you currently pay for your electricity. 

Benefits of a Solar Loan:

  • No Large Upfront Cost: Solar loans allow you to finance your system with affordable monthly payments.
     

  • Incentives: Like purchasing, loan financing allows you to claim solar incentives and credits (when and where available), providing additional savings.
     

  • Ownership Advantage: Once the loan is paid off, you own the system outright and can take full advantage of the savings from generating your own power.

Financing Options

Solar Lease

A solar lease is a TPO (Third Party Ownership) which allows homeowners to “rent” the solar system at a fixed monthly payment. This provides energy savings without ownership responsibilities.

​​

Benefits of a Solar Lease:

  • Low Upfront Investment: Leasing offers lower upfront costs, making it accessible without a large payment.
     

  • Maintenance Included: Leased systems are typically maintained by the leasing company, saving you on maintenance expenses.
     

  • Immediate Energy Savings: With fixed monthly payments, you benefit from energy savings right away with minimal commitment to solar equipment.

Financing Options

Solar Pre-Paid Lease

With a one-time, upfront payment, you secure your solar system through a TPO (Third Party Ownership) which allows homeowners to “rent” the solar system long-term. This protects your household from rising utility prices without the monthly payments of a Solar Lease.

 

Benefits of a Pre-Paid Solar Lease:

  • One-Time Payment: Make a single upfront investment and enjoy stable, predictable solar energy for the life of the agreement.  No monthly lease payments, no surprises.
     

  • No System Ownership Hassles: Leasing Company handles system design, monitoring, installation, maintenance, and performance so you get the benefits of solar without the responsibility.
     

  • Lower Cost Than Traditional Leases: Pre-paying significantly reduces the overall cost of solar compared to other purchase or lease options.  Leasing Company passes through the 30% tax credit so you can still benefit with a lower Pre-Paid offer.
     

  • Transferable: The lease can be easily transferred to the next homeowner, making it a seamless and attractive feature.

Financing Options

Solar PPA

A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a TPO (Third Party Ownership) that sells power by the kilowatt-hour to the homeowner at a reduced rate of what the utility company charges. There is no lease, ownership, or management of the solar equipment itself, as it is owned by an outside party.  

 

  • No Upfront Cost: PPA pays all costs for installation, service and maintenance.  

  • Savings: Homeowners only pay for the power the system produces at a fixed cost per kilowatt-hour. This cost is significantly less than what the utility company charges.  

      

  • Production: TPO takes on the risk of system underproducing. The homeowner only pays for the energy the system produces, typically at a much lower cost than a standard non-solar utility company charges.

"Communication Was Excellent"

I found Pacific Sun Tech after doing a lot of research regarding solar companies.

 

After talking with the project manager, I felt very comfortable about installing a system that works for me. He listened to what I wanted from the system and meticulously put a plan together. He explained everything so that I could understand it and answered all my questions in detail.


The office manager assisted with the all the paperwork. She very personable. She processed all the necessary papers to be signed for my rebates within a couple of weeks. Also her communication was excellent. Any question that I had, she got right back to me and kept me informed. She supplied me with which documents were needed and went over the process of filling them out.


My solar system is working perfectly!

I am very happy with Pacific and would recommend them and the system.
