What is a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?

A Solar PPA is an agreement between a solar power provider & a homeowner to provide a residence with electricity at a set cost. The Solar PPA is not a lease or purchase of solar panels, but instead provides homeowners with an agreed on supply of power through solar production on their property.

Is this a scam? How do you make money?

Nothing’s free in life, and neither is a PPA-provided solar system. The Solar PPA is still a part of a business & we make our money in the same way traditional power utilities do; by selling you power. Though we’re able to do it at a drastically reduced rate with hyper-local production.
