Solar Power Cheaper than Utilities for First Time in Northeast
Alteris Renewables Partners with SunRun to Introduce "Solar as a Service"
to Homeowners in Massachusetts.
April 21, 2009 - Boston, MA
Alteris Renewables and SunRun announced a breakthrough program today for powering Massachusetts homes with clean, renewable solar energy. Through its partnership with SunRun, Alteris Renewables is turning home solar into a monthly service, like cable or any other utility. With this new program, upfront costs plummet from $30,000 to as little as $1,000 for customers to be able to install solar electric systems on their homes. Customers will enjoy savings from day one with locked-in rates for the next 18 years - a valuable protection from future electric rate increases. They can also make a good return on their initial investment. "Now, with SunRun, we've made it as easy as paying
your electric bill, only cheaper. For consumers with a sunny home site,
there's no longer any reason not to join in helping preserve the planet for
our children." This is the first time that
SunRun, a game-changing solar
service, is available on the East Coast. Because homeowners do
not need to maintain, repair or insure their systems, solar becomes
virtually risk-free. Customers can even get all the new tax advantages
available for installing solar without any of the paperwork, making it the
easiest way to get a solar electric system on the home. Download attached document (38.4KB)
