CUSTOMER QUALIFICATIONS
Qualifying is radically simple.
This isn't traditional solar financing. Because your CCA and Solar Tech underwrite the property — not you — the barriers most homeowners face just aren't there.
No FICO Score Required
Solar Tech underwrites the site, not the individual — no consumer credit check, no issues with previous bankruptcies.
No Debt-to-Income Review
Zero DTI review required. Your income and existing debt don't affect eligibility.
Open Access for All
Fully available to residential and commercial customers within participating CCAs. The only requirement is that you haven't opted out of your CCA — and if you have, we'll help opt you back in.
Flexible Ownership
At least one applicant on the property title qualifies. Individuals, trusts, LLCs, S-Corps, and C-Corps all welcome.

EXAMPLE UTILITY BILL
Monthly billing = kWh + Battery Charge
Your CCA solar rate appears as a single line item on your existing utility statement — same bill, lower total, from your same utility company.
The CCA solar line item
Real customer statements showing the CCA solar generation charge appearing directly on the existing utility bill.
Replaces — not adds — a charge
The CCA generation charge replaces the utility's own generation charge. It is not a new fee.

Lower generation rate
The CCA solar charge replaces the utility's generation charge at a lower fixed price per kWh from your rooftop.

Your rate is locked with only a 1.9% annual PPA escalation — protection from unpredictable utility rate hikes.

IN PLAIN ENGLISH
The whole program, explained simply.
No jargon. No fine print. Here's exactly what changes — and what doesn't — when you sign up.
If you own your home and pay a utility bill in California, you probably qualify for one of our three solar programs.
The CCA program above is just one of them — see below for statewide options.
The CCA program above is just one of them — see below for statewide options.
Do I have to switch utilities? +
No. You keep the same utility, same meter, same bill. Nothing changes about how power gets to your house.
Where does my power come from? +
Solar panels on your roof during the day, and your utility at night — just like before. The CCA simply changes who supplies your generation.
What does it cost me? +
$0 out of pocket. No down payment. You pay a lower, locked-in rate per kWh for the solar your roof produces — that's it.
What if something breaks? +
Full 25-year warranty on panels, inverter, and Powerwall. Solar Tech handles service — you never call the utility.
