Payment Plan Options Explained

Solar Loans

Own your system immediately with fixed-rate financing. Ideal for homeowners wanting long-term equity and tax benefits.

Lease Agreements

Pay fixed monthly fees while the provider maintains the system. Perfect for those prioritizing hassle-free operation.

Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)

Pay only for the electricity generated, often below grid rates. Popular in Spain and Portugal where sunshine is abundant.
