Near Fresno, CA in the little city of Laton, a local cop named Todd was looking for a way to lower his parent’s whopping electricity bill. In the summer months Todd’s dad paid between $1,100 and $1,300 each month for his electricity. So Todd started exploring options that would help dramatically reduce his dad’s energy costs.

Since Todd’s family’s electricity bills ran about $300 a month, he and his wife weren’t seriously looking into any energy alternatives for themselves. Todd’s wife had voiced an interest in going solar but thought their monthly bills weren’t high enough to invest a lot of upfront money in getting solar panels. But while doing the research for his dad, Todd and his wife came across REC Solar, one of SunRun’s partners, and they immediately clicked. REC Solar’s explanation about SunRun’s home solar financing to get panels on both Todd’s house and his dad’s house. Going solar with SunRun was a great solution to his dad’s astronomical electricity bills and Todd’s desire to go solar without the huge upfront investment. With SunRun, Todd got started with home solar power for $1000 and he hasn’t had to worry about any additional costs since.

Todd has been a great advocate of SunRun by referring friends and neighbors to SunRun. In exchange for his referrals to SunRun, we have rewarded him with an equal amount of free months of electricity.   SunRun gives all of our customers who refer us to someone else a free month of solar electricity. Todd also participated in SunRun’s Holiday Lights Contest with a unique design that showcases his enthusiasm for going solar.
