Phil's Story

With the Sunrun power purchase agreement, Phil and Masako were able to see immediate savings on their electricity bills.

As a retired captain in the US Army, Philip is used to paying close attention to details. When he started investigating solar power, Philip focused on the cost of photovoltaic panels and compared many San Diego photovoltaic panel manufacturers. But then Philip realized what he really needed was home solar electricity - not a certain type of panel.

With this in mind, Philip discovered that Sunrun's solar power service was the best option for him. To Phil, it made more sense to go with a power purchase agreement. With Sunrun, he only had to pay for the power. Phil and Masako didn't have to pay for any equipment or worry about solar panel maintenance.

With Sunrun, Phil and Masako saved over 50% on the upfront cost and were able to remodel their kitchen at the same time.

They're also excited about the low fixed rate Sunrun offers for their electricity. They started to save money right away on power and, by switching to home solar power in San Diego, their electricity rate will stay low and fixed for 18 years while utility rates will keep climbing.

For Phil, Sunrun's complimentary maintenance and repair, and monitoring were an added bonus. Not to mention that Sunrun guarantees Phil will get all the electricity promised in the agreement or his money back. "At 65, you don't want to climb on your roof," he said.
