There are two main ways to finance solar panels: owning them or leasing them. Both options have their own benefits and drawbacks, and the best option for you will depend on your individual circumstances.
Owning solar panels
When you own your solar panels, you are responsible for the initial upfront cost of the system. However, you also reap the benefits of owning them, including:
Long-term savings: Solar panels can save you money on your energy bills for decades. In fact, the average homeowner saves about $20,000 over the lifetime of their solar system.
Equity: As your solar system generates electricity, it adds value to your home. This means that you can build equity in your home even if you don't own the panels outright.
Warranty: Most solar panel manufacturers offer a 25-year warranty on their products. This means that you can be confident that your solar panels will last for many years to come.
Leasing solar panels
If you don't have the money to invest in solar panels upfront, leasing may be a more affordable option. With a solar lease, you don't own the panels, but you pay a monthly fee to use them. The monthly fee is typically lower than your current energy bill, so you can start saving money on your energy costs right away.
However, there are some drawbacks to leasing solar panels:
You don't own the panels: This means that you don't have any equity in the system, and you won't be able to sell the panels if you move.
Limited warranty: Most solar leasing companies only offer a 10-year warranty on their systems. This means that you may be responsible for the cost of repairs or replacements after the warranty expires.
Increased monthly payments: Over time, your monthly lease payments may increase as the cost of electricity goes up.
Which option is right for you?
The best option for you will depend on your individual circumstances and financial situation. If you have the money to invest in solar panels upfront, owning them is the best option for long-term savings. However, if you don't have the money upfront, leasing may be a more affordable option.
We recommend that you talk to a solar installer to discuss your options and get a quote for both owning and leasing solar panels. They can help you understand the benefits and drawbacks of each option and make the best decision for you.
