Lock in reliable power at a lower, predictable rate — with $0 out-of-pocket.

Why Choose a PPA?

A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a simple, no-cost way to go solar. Instead of buying the system, you agree to buy the power it generates — at a guaranteed lower price than your current utility.

  • No upfront costs — Solar system installation is 100% covered.

  • Lower electric bills — Pay a fixed rate between $0.20–$0.30 per kWh.

  • Reliable energy — Avoid blackouts and rising utility costs.

  • Fully maintained — We handle monitoring, maintenance, and repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?

A PPA is an agreement where you pay for the power your solar panels generate, not the system itself. It allows you to benefit from solar without the high upfront cost.

What happens if I move?

Most PPA contracts are transferable to the new homeowner or include options to buy out or terminate. We help you navigate your options during a move.

Who maintains the system?

The PPA provider handles all maintenance, monitoring, and repairs — so you can sit back and enjoy the savings.

Can I still benefit from battery backup?

Yes! Some PPA providers offer battery storage options for additional resilience during power outages.
