Solar & Battery may reduce electricity costs, depending on usage and system design. 
Battery backup can provide backup power during outages; backup duration depends on load and battery capacity.

🌞 What is a Solar PPA (Power Purchase Agreement)​
A Solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a long-term contract between you (often called the host customer) and a solar developer or provider. Under this arrangement:
  • A third-party company installs, owns, operates, and maintains a solar panel system on your property (like your roof).
  • You don’t buy the solar equipment — there are no or very low upfront costs.
  • Instead, you agree to buy the electricity that system produces for a set number of years (typically 15–25 years) at a predetermined rate (often less than what your utility charges).
  • You pay only for the solar electricity generated, not for the system itself.
*Disclaimer: Package pricing, totals, and incentives are subject to change based on federal adjustments to taxes, tariffs, and individual tax liability. It is recommended that clients consult with an Advanced Power USA professional for comprehensive guidance to fully understand any potential implications such as shading or inadequate sun. System pricing based on typical 4/12 roof pitch and open sun exposure. Panel requirements based upon personal usage patterns may vary.  Please consult with an Advanced Power USA solar representative to better determine system size and maximize offset per usage.
​Please note that changes in pricing or product availability may occur due to market fluctuations or unforeseen circumstances.
