Robert's Story
Robert knew going solar was the right thing to do, he just didn't know the right way to do it.
Robert, a producer for Live Nation and long-time resident of Los Angeles, had wanted solar panels for his home. He believed using clean energy was the right to do, but he didn't want to spend a lot of money upfront. He attended solar informational meetings and received solar quotes from different companies, but they were always too high. “It was too much out of pocket,” Robert explained.
| Name | City, State | Utility Co. | System Size | Upfront Cost | Pre-Solar Electricity Costs | Post-Solar Electricity Costs |
| Robert | Los Angeles, CA | LADWP | 4 kW | $0 | $120 | $90 |
Then one installation company he had spoken to told Robert that Sunrun was coming to Los Angeles soon, and that he should wait and “keep his ears open.” Robert sat tight and in a couple of months, Sunrun solar leasing was available in Los Angeles.
For Robert, $0 upfront and long-term savings was a no-brainer and signed up right away.
Now, Robert is enjoying monthly savings on his electric bill. Plus, his solar system fits right in with his neighborhood's greening initiatives. When Robert isn't working on concerts, he's building sustainability workshops with his neighborhood council.
"Going solar seemed like a good thing to do, the right thing to do. When it came down to the numbers, the net savings – as opposed to cost – are what drew me. With Sunrun, solar became a no-brainer."
