HOW TO GO SOLAR WHAT ARE THE BEST FINANCING
OPTIONS
Several solar solution services are able to
propose their clients with an assortment of
financing possibilities in order for them to go
solar. The most easily available financing
options are System Ownership and having a lease
on the system or getting a Power Purchase
Agreement (PPA). Since these two are the main
options, it is important for all homeowners to
methodically calculate the expected benefits and
negatives that these choices offer. Here is a
complete homeowners guide for selecting the
right financing option

• System Ownership compared to Entering a Power
  Purchase Agreement (PPA)
• 1. What will the homeowner pay for?
• System Ownership The price of a solar
  generation structure that covers approximately
  all of the houses electricity requirements.
• Lease A static once-a-month rate regardless of
  how much electricity is created. In a PPA
  agreement, a set amount of money is charged for
  every Kilowatt Hour produced.

• 2. What will the homeowner purchase?
• System Ownership All machinery of the PV system
  together with solar panels and metering gear.
  Homeowners are also advised to purchase
  performance analysis software, prolonged service
  contract, and other choices.
• PPA This is basically getting contractually
  affiliated with a solar service company who will
  provide certain services that most probably do
  not come with too many purchase options.

• 3. What benefits does the purchase bring?
• System Ownership All the gear, labor, municipal
  and resident taxes, the lowest standard
  guarantee, managerial correspondence
  (authorizing, etc.) and, occasional performance
  analysis all of these benefits come free of
  cost for homeowners who opt for system ownership.
• PPA Generally it includes labor, state and
  local taxes, administrative paperwork
  (permitting, interconnection application, etc.),
  processes and preservation, inverter spares,
  insurance, constant monitoring, and production
  warranties.
• 4. The tax implications that the homeowner will
  have to face
• System Ownership Homeowners must check with
  their tax consultant in order to determine
  whether or not they possess eligibility for the
  30 Fed-Investment Tax Credit. In case their
  system ownership is being financed via a home
  equity advance, they might be entitled to a tax
  deduction.
• PPA The solar service providers usually receive
  the 30 Fed-Investment tax credit. They might
  also receive viable depreciation tax doles.

• 5. What are the risks?
• System Ownership For people who have System
  Ownerships, there is an added responsibility for
  operations and preservation expenses. They must
  at all times be mindful of system performance and
  make the most of its energy production. (Data
  analysis systems are crucial.)
• PPA A Solar service provider may jump ship and
  stop the company altogether making it incapable
  to deliver operations and care as discussed in
  the contract. PPAs typically have rates that
  spiral over time and generally have long-standing
  obligations of over twenty-five years. The
  homeowner must discuss all the buyout
  possibilities with the provider, in case such
  details are not detailed in the contract.
