Solar financing companies used to only focus on commercial projects.

Before 2007, it was expensive for homeowners to go solar. Solar financing companies focused only on commercial scale projects. It was much more complicated to figure out solar financing for the smaller, residential scale.

Ed and Lynn worked with regulators, lawyers, tax investors, and solar installers to create the first affordable solar financing option for homeowners. Sunrun became the nation's first solar financing company to offer residential power purchase agreements.

Sunrun has become the solar financing company of choice.

Sunrun has become the nation's leading home solar financing company, serving 10 states and more than 20,000 customers.

• 1 out of 8 homeowners in the U.S. who switched to solar in 2010 chose Sunrun -- more than any other solar service provider.
• Sunrun installs $1 million in home solar systems every day.
• Sunrun is the only home solar company to have an uninterrupted source of project financing (approximately $400 million in solar systems and $85 million in corporate equity capital).

Sunrun makes going solar easy and affordable for homeowners.
