Residential Solar Financing Options
Cash Purchase
System ownership offers the strongest long-term value and the highest lifetime savings.
- No monthly payments
- Maximum return over the life of the solar system
- Ideal for homeowners planning to stay either long-term or short-term
- Add value to your property
Solar Financing (Loan Options)
Financing allows you to own your system while spreading the cost over time.
- No upfront cost
- Affordable monthly payments
- Full ownership benefits
- Maximizes your return on investment
Solar Lease Options
With a solar lease, the system is owned by the lessor, while CS&E installs and maintains the solar equipment on your property. You pay a monthly rate for the clean energy the system produces, without the responsibility of system ownership.
Here’s how the process works:
- Our engineers design a custom solar and battery backup system for your home or business based on your energy usage, roof layout, location and property-specific factors.
- CS&E manages all permits, installation, inspections, and interconnection applications.
- You pay an agreed-upon rate designed to be lower than your utility rate and begin saving right away.
- CS&E handles system monitoring, performance checks, and warranty management for the life of the agreement.
