Example A: $0 Down, 20-Year Loan

Anonymous Apple’s average electric bill prior to going solar with Solar States was $102. After evaluating Apple’s rooftop, we proposed a design with 14 panels. The system would offset Apple’s electric spend by 98%. Apple agreed to move forward, and chose to put down a down payment for a third of the system cost, and pay the rest with a 0% interest, 12-year loan that penciled out to payments of $66 per month. Apple’s entire out-of-pocket solar expense (including all loan payments made) was $18,197. We estimate that over 25 years, Apple would have paid the utility $36,588 for that same energy.

Example B: Paid Cash, 100% Offset

Anonymous Aardvark paid a little over $12,000 for a system that began producing well over 100% of his electric spend on day 1. Based on Aardvark’s historical energy usage, we estimate he would have paid over $31,000 to the utility over 25 years had he not gone solar.
