SF Bay Area Solar Power
At the forefront in clean technology, The SF Bay Area leads the way in home solar.
The San Francisco bay area has always embraced smart technology and solar is no exception. Home to many solar companies and many more solar homes, the Bay Area (including the counties of Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma) is a great place to look into solar panels for your home.
It's more affordable than ever to get solar for your home with Sunrun. It's a new kind of home solar, where you buy solar electricity instead of panels. It's called solar leasing or a power purchase agreement.
