WHAT DO THE FACTS SAY ABOUT SOLAR IN THE US

By: Ed Anderson From Solar Nextdoor

In the last few years the solar industry has changed significantly. In just two years the average cost of

solar has dropped nearly 50%. Along with huge price decreases, the solar industry has provided various

ways to obtain solar without spending a dollar upfront. Through leases, PPA’s, and different funding

programs, home or commercial property owners can obtain solar without upfront money and save money

month #1 after installed. Today we can say solar has clearly become mainstream by looking at the data

that is provided below by solar industry professionals from SEIA and GTM.
