Solar Financing Made Simple
Good Energy Solar offers three financing options to our customers. Choose the financing method that works for you and we’ll take care of the rest.
Payment Options
Loan
You own your solar system and over the term of your loan, you repay the loan on a monthly basis. Loan terms are currently offered for 10, 15, or 20 years. You keep the solar tax credit for which the energy system is eligible. You can pay off your loan any time without penalty. For many customers, the combination of the loan payment and the remaining utility bill is less than their previous electric bill.
