4 FAQs about Quotation for solar container leasing options

Is solar leasing a good option?

As with any solar financing option, solar leasing comes with its share of pros and cons: As long as your contract is structured competitively, solar leases should reduce your monthly energy costs compared to what you'd pay your utility company.

What is a solar lease?

You can think of a solar lease like a car lease: It's a form of third-party ownership (TPO) where you don't own the product that you're paying for. Under a solar lease, a third-party owner (typically a solar company) installs solar panels on your property and then sells you the electricity produced at a predetermined monthly rate.

Should you buy or lease a solar system?

Most solar leases require no money down, making solar accessible even if you don't have cash reserves for a purchase or a large enough tax bill to benefit from tax credits. The solar company handles all system monitoring, repairs, and maintenance. You don't need to worry about equipment failures or performance issues.

Are solar panels a lease or a PPA?

Maintenance: If you choose a solar lease or PPA, the leasing company owns the solar panel system and typically offers a service program to cover any maintenance issues that arise during the lease term. On the other hand, if you take out a solar loan to purchase your system, you'll be responsible for its maintenance.
