When Dorothy first heard about homeowners going green and getting solar panels for their homes, she was interested right away. Then on a trip to Hawaii, she noticed that most of the homes were equipped with solar panels. Intrigued and excited, Dorothy started looking into solar energy. She not only wanted to create a healthier environment for herself, but also improve the health of the city's electrical grid.
| Name | City, State | Utility Co. | System Sizes | Upfront Cost | Pre-Solar Electricity Costs | Post-Solar Electricity Costs |
| Dorothy | Los Angeles, CA | LADWP | 3.78 kW & 3.87 kW | $0 | $600 | $440 |
After learning more about the solar options available in L.A., Dorothy decided to sign up with Sunrun to get solar panels for both her houses in Los Angeles. With Sunrun, Dorothy was able to get started for $0 for each home, and simply pay monthly for her electricity.
Now, Dorothy is saving money on her electric bill. Whereas she used to pay $600 to LADWP every two months, she now pays $280 to LADWP and $160 to Sunrun.
With Sunrun, Dorothy doesn't have to worry about her systems at all since Sunrun watches over both solar systems for 20 years. It's a good thing, too, since Dorothy spends much of her time volunteering at the local schools and senior citizens' center.
"My electric bill went down from $600 every two months to $360. I'm very happy with my system."
