Historically these customers have been left out of the race to slash electricity bills and to enhance their...

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN AN ON-SITE SOLAR PROJECT ISN’T PRACTICAL? Advances in solar technology and a sharp decline in equipment costs have transformed electricity customers from “price takers” to “price choosers.” On-site solar customers receive electricity at a fixed, predictable price. Even as energy costs rise over time, the price of solar power remains constant. Stable renewable energy contracts hedge against electricity pricing hikes and...
