John's Story

After considering several solar companies, John chose to get Total Solar from Sunrun.

John has been living in Tuscon since 1968. He'd been watching solar power in his neighborhood for quite some time, but the high price of purchasing a system had always been an issue. But as the cost of solar panels continued to decrease, John knew it was time to seriously consider solar power.

He called a friend who worked for Sunrun to learn more about how Sunrun works. He'd considered several other companies before but when he looked at Sunrun and its solar power service plan, he decided to choose Sunrun. With Sunrun, he didn't have to pay for the solar panels himself. Sunrun purchased and owns the solar system; John pays Sunrun for solar electricity. Since John had some money saved, he decided to prepay for his solar electricity in advance, so he could skip monthly bills for 20 years.

Now, John pays $8 per month for his electricity and keeps a personal chart of his daily electricity usage and generation. He often invites friends over to come look at the system. "I appreciate the system," said John.

"I thought about going solar for quite some time, but price had always been a consideration. When I saw Sunrun, I went for it. I appreciate your system."
