Frequently Asked Questions

Learn about your solar options — from $0-down Power Purchase Agreements to financing and cash purchases. We have a solution for every homeowner.

Most Popular

What is a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?

A PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) is a third-party ownership model where you pay $0 down and simply buy the power your solar system produces at a fixed, lower rate than your utility. You don't own the system — the solar company does — but you get all the savings with none of the upfront cost, maintenance, or risk. Most of our customers choose this option because it's the easiest way to start saving immediately.

TPO / Lease

How is a PPA different from a solar lease?

Both are third-party ownership (TPO) models with $0 down. With a lease, you pay a fixed monthly payment regardless of how much power your system produces. With a PPA, you pay per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for what your system actually generates — often resulting in greater savings. Both include full maintenance, monitoring, and warranty coverage for 20-25 years.

Financing

Can I finance my solar system instead?

Absolutely. Solar loans let you own your system with $0 down, qualify for the 30% federal tax credit, and build equity in your home. Monthly loan payments are typically lower than your current electric bill, so you start saving from day one. Once the loan is paid off (usually 10-25 years), your electricity is essentially free.

Cash Purchase

What are the benefits of buying solar outright?

Paying cash gives you the highest lifetime savings and the fastest payback period (typically 6-9 years in Texas). You own the system outright, claim the full 30% federal tax credit, and enjoy 25+ years of near-free electricity. It also increases your home's resale value — studies show solar adds an average of $15,000+ to home values in Texas.

PPA

What happens at the end of my PPA agreement?

At the end of your PPA term (typically 20-25 years), you have three options: (1) Renew the agreement at a new rate, (2) Purchase the system at fair market value, or (3) Have the system removed at no cost to you. Most homeowners choose to purchase the system since it's nearly paid for itself by then.

Battery Backup

Can I add a battery backup to my PPA or financed system?

Yes! Battery backup (Tesla Powerwall, Franklin WH, or Enphase) can be added to any solar system — whether PPA, financed, or cash. With Texas's history of grid failures, a battery ensures your home stays powered during outages. Battery storage can also be included in your PPA or loan with $0 additional upfront cost.
