Low-cost solar panels are available!
What if you could install solar panels on your home for only $1000? What if I told you that a solar lease program in Colorado will allow you to do just that? Within 30 days, you could be drawing on free solar electricity through the Colorado SunRun Lease Program!
High electricity bills and CO2 emissions from dirty coal-based energy could soon be a thing of the past. For homeowners in Colorado, SunRun is offering a home solar system arrangement that allows customers to switch to clean solar power at a fixed, low rate.
Solar leases are becoming more common in states like California and Arizona, but they will soon be found around the globe. Solar power companies are realizing that one of the biggest hurdles for property owners is the upfront cost to install solar panels. By offering solar panel lease agreements, the initial investment is cut way down, and monthly lease payments are often a fraction of the original electricity bills. Its easy to pay less for solar panels through a solar lease.
Sure, there are many low cost solar panel options out there – from solar kits to 100% DIY instructions. But when you go through a company like SunRun, you’ll get professional installations, quality components and management/maintenance of the system. In other words, peace of mind!
Colorado SunRun Solar Lease program
In Colorado, SunRun has partnered with REC Solar, Namaste Solar and Real Goods Solar to provide high quality solar installations. How refreshing to know that solar is now a realistic option for those who would like clean energy, but who don’t want to deplete their savings, or learn about solar equipment to do so?
The Colorado SunRun program could be for you, if you’d like to simply have your solar panels installed and forget about them. Maintenance, repair and even insurance is all covered under the contract. In addition, you can still tap into the local solar incentives, including tax rebates. Many solar installers help you with the paperwork.
SunRun is found in Colorado, Arizona and California. However, as mentioned above, more and more solar corporations are starting to offer solar financing options like solar leases in other locales.
Stay tuned for more information. If you’d like to know whether you can partner with a solar company to lease solar panels where you live, shoot me a question in the comments below and I’ll look up options for you!

Hello, I live in a fairly sunny spot in the foothills outside of Denver. I have worked with Namaste Solar before in promoting green tech locally. I currently use geothermal for heating/cooling/back-up hot water and Xcel's Windsource program for electricity. I would like to go solar but don't know if solar leasing would be right. My current electric bills are about $60 in the summer and $150 in the winter with the geo heat. Do you think leasing solar would be advisable? When you lease, are you using the solar electricity directly (is it a direct use system, or a battery system), or does it just go to the grid? Thanks for any advice.
