Question

Answer

Are you aware that by making larger or additional payments before the end of the 18^th month your account is active, the amount due for your subsequent monthly payments may be reduced?

Your solar financing payments are re-amortized once at month 18. If you make only the buydown payment (by month 18), your subsequent payments will be $X.XX. In addition to the buydown, if you choose to make extra or larger payments before month 18, your subsequent payments will be lower than $X.XX.

Your agreement states that if you choose not to exercise the buydown option and you pay by ACH, you will have 18 monthly payments of $X, 281 monthly payments of $X, and then 1 additional payment of $X. Is that correct?

Your solar financing payments are re-amortized once at month 18. If you make only the buydown payment (by month 18), your subsequent payments will be $X.XX. If you choose not to make a buydown payment, your payment will be $X.XX when the loan re-amortizes.

The annual percentage increase for your price per kilowatt hour is X%. Is that correct?

If the customer questions why the price is increasing yearly (PPA’s)

It’s simply how the pricing is structured. The escalator is similar to inflation. While circumstances differ utility by utility, generally speaking, energy prices have increased steadily over time. The difference with the PPA is you know exactly what your future rate will be as it is pre-negotiated and it is a modest [X.X]%.

Do you understand that you will have utility charges and may still have to purchase additional electricity from the utility?

Customers don’t understand why they might still have a utility bill

Peak electricity consumption generally happens in the late afternoon/evening hours, combined with the fact that your solar system only generates electricity during daylight hours. Therefore, unless you have battery storage and/or backup, you will need to pull electricity from the grid during other parts of the day in order to provide power to your home.
