Financing

There are many ways to make solar energy affordable for you—so you can start using clean, renewable power and benefit from significant long-term energy savings. The cost of solar technology has dropped dramatically in recent years, putting it within reach for many home and business owners, especially with the help of tax incentives and the right financing plan.

As solar has become competitive in the energy market, the financial options for installing solar energy systems on homes, businesses, and nonprofit organizations have expanded significantly. There are several models that make solar energy affordable, including direct purchase, loans, and solar leasing.

At Sundance, we help our customers identify the right financial strategy for them. If you’re interested in solar, we can help you find the option that will provide the greatest benefit and economic return, based on your financial resources and long-term goals.

Direct Purchase
When possible, direct ownership offers the most favorable investment opportunity. Tax credits and other incentives may help to put direct purchase within reach.

Clean Energy Credit Union Loans
Sundance partners with the Clean Energy Credit Union to offer financing options for our customers.
