A Solar PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) is a financial agreement in which a third-party installs, owns, and operates a solar energy system on a customer’s property, and the customer agrees to purchase the electricity generated by the system at a fixed rate (usually lower than the local utility’s rate) for a predetermined period—typically 10 to 25 years.

When it comes time to replace your roof our partner roofing company will match any quote you get from a competitor on the new roof install and remove and replace the solar panels at no cost to you!

With a PPA the solar panels are covered by insurance carried by the installer. If damage occurs during a storm, the panels are repaired or replaced by the installer, at no cost to the homeowner. While you should always consult your home insurance provider prior to modifying your home, having a PPA typically does not affect the insurance rate for the homeowner, as the liability is with the installer.

Yes, the PPA can be transferred to the new homeowner, and they are locked into the lower fixed-rate for the remainder of the term.

Solar panels can be installed on all kinds of roof surfaces, including:

1. asphalt shingles (most standard residential)

2. metal

3. slate

4. almost all commercial surfaces
