Connecticut Solar Financing Options

Two ways to go solar. Different owners.

Connecticut homeowners can purchase and own a residential solar system or choose third-party owned solar through a PPA or lease. Both approaches can reduce the amount of electricity purchased from the utility, but the upfront investment, payment structure, maintenance responsibility and long-term ownership are different.

Third-Party Owned Solar

We Own

PPA • Lease • Third-Party Ownership

Third-party owned solar is designed for Connecticut homeowners who want the benefit of solar without purchasing the equipment or making a significant upfront investment.

$0 No large upfront solar-system purchase
✓ Third party owns the solar equipment
✓ Maintenance and covered service handled under the agreement
✓ Power Purchase Agreement or solar lease structure
Homeowner-Owned Solar

You Own

Pay Upfront • Solar Loan • Financed Purchase

Purchasing solar means you own the panels, inverters and equipment installed on your Connecticut home. Pay upfront or finance the system through an available solar financing partner.

✓ You own the solar equipment
✓ Pay upfront or finance your solar purchase
✓ No monthly solar payment once fully paid
✓ Your solar system becomes your asset

However you finance solar, quality still matters.

Your financing structure changes who owns the system and how you pay for it. It should never change the quality of the solar design, equipment or installation.

Connecticut Solar PPA & Lease Options

Go solar without the upfront investment.

A solar PPA or lease can make sense for Connecticut homeowners who want to avoid the upfront investment required to purchase a residential solar system while still benefiting from solar electricity.

With third-party owned solar, the equipment is owned by the third-party provider. System ownership, covered maintenance and long-term equipment responsibility remain with the provider according to the agreement.

Connecticut Solar Purchase & Loan Options

Make the investment. Own the asset.

Purchasing residential solar in Connecticut requires a greater investment than a third-party owned structure, but the solar panels, inverters and associated equipment belong to you.

Once a purchased solar system is fully paid for, there is no continuing monthly solar payment. A properly sized system can offset a substantial portion of your annual electricity usage, although normal utility fixed charges may still remain.

25-Year Solara Solar Workmanship Warranty Your homeowner-owned system is backed by Solara Solar's 25-year workmanship warranty along with applicable manufacturer equipment warranties.
Solar System Ownership

You Own the Equipment

The solar system becomes an asset associated with your home.

Long-Term Solar Savings

No Solar Payment Once Paid Off

Once the purchase or solar-financing obligation is complete, there is no continuing solar-loan payment.

Homeowner Responsibility

Your System. Your Responsibility.

Applicable workmanship and manufacturer warranties help protect your homeowner-owned solar investment.

Connecticut Solar Loans & Cash Purchase

Pay upfront. Or finance.

Homeowners who prefer to own their system do not have to pay for the entire project upfront. Financing can spread the purchase over time while allowing you to retain ownership of your solar system.

Pay Upfront for Solar

Purchase your system directly from Solara Solar and own the equipment installed on your Connecticut home.

Finance Your Solar Purchase

Qualified homeowners can explore financing through Solara Solar's available finance partners while retaining homeowner ownership.

Connecticut Solar Financing Partners

Financing through trusted Connecticut partners.

Solara Solar works with solar financing partners including, but not limited to, Connecticut Green Bank programs. Qualified homeowners may be able to finance a homeowner-owned residential solar system instead of paying the entire project cost upfront.
