Are "free" solar panels really free?

"Free solar" usually means a solar lease or a power purchase agreement. A company installs panels on your roof for no money upfront and charges you for the electricity they produce, usually at a set rate. You don't own the panels.

Before you sign, it's worth understanding the contract length, the rate and any yearly increase. Solar may lower your monthly electricity costs, and how much depends on your home, your utility and the program you qualify for.

New incentive programs are available for qualified homeowners, and they differ by state. See our solar guides for New Jersey, New York, California, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Maryland.
