Solar Lease & PPA Providers | sfenvironment.org - Our Home. Our City. Our Planet
Solar leases and power purchase agreements (PPAs) are two 3rd-party ownership options that allow consumers to install solar energy systems without the upfront cost.
Pricing and Financing a Solar Electricity System
The cost of a PV system depends on the system size, equipment options (panels and inverters), permitting costs, and labor costs. Prices vary depending on other factors as well, such as whether your home is new, where the system is installed on your premise, the PV manufacturer, and other factors. For example, the total average cost of an installed residential PV system under the California Solar Initiative is $8.70 per Watt (including installation, as of January 2011). That translates to about $34,800 for a four-kilowatt system, the average size of a residential installation. To see real average cost data for solar projects installed near you, visit the Find a Contractor page on California Solar Statistics.PHOTON International - Roof Exchange
Offering a Roof Space to Install Photovoltaic Modules You have a roof and would like to supply it to an owner of a photovoltaic system? Then enter it into our PHOTON roof exchange and provide all the necessary information for potential contractors. To provide a clearer idea of the roof, you can upload a picture to accompany the technical data.
Renting Solar Energy"
Instead of putting up $30,000 or more to buy solar panels , why not just rent them? A few companies are offering to install and maintain solar panels in exchange for a monthly fee. The idea is based on the purchase power agreements used by businesses. In this type of agreement, the company owns and maintains the solar panels and sells the electricity back to the homeowner. At the end of the rental period, homeowners can extend their lease, buy the system, or have it removed. The arrangement protects homeowners from rising fuel prices because their monthly cost is locked-in for several years.SV-REP Documents and Resources

The cost of solar power is the most commonly asked question we get and the answer is, “ it depends. ” There are so many different types and sizes of roof — from steeply pitched Spanish tile roofs to flat, tar-paper ones — and energy needs are quite different from one house to the next, too. The homes in your neighborhood may be similar in size and roof type, for instance, but if you own a hot tub and electric car, you’re probably going to need a larger solar system than a neighbor who doesn’t have these things. Rebates and incentives vary dramatically from state to state. The cost of the solar panels themselves also varies depending on their efficiency and design.
