How you pay

RGS offers several flexible financing options for solar service, and can help customers choose the right option for their home or business.

Solar Power as a Service

RGS offers solar leases or power purchase agreements (PPAs) which provide low, fixed rates on electricity and a stable, predictable power bill. RGS will install and maintain your solar system at your home and you’ll simply buy the power you use from it each month.

Purchase a Solar Power System

RGS allows customers to purchase their solar systems outright. This method requires a greater upfront financial commitment, but also yields the greatest savings in the long-term. Since you own your system, you own the power you produce, in addition to any rebates or tax incentives you qualify for.

Take Up to 50% Off the Cost of Solar with Incentives

Governments offer efficiency and solar incentives like rebates and tax credits that can significantly reduce the cost of your electricity and help you start saving money sooner. For example, the Federal Renewable Energy Tax Credit takes 30% off the cost of solar, and state and local programs can remove even more.

The verdict

RGS pioneered the solar industry, and are now servicing customers in homes, schools, businesses, and nonprofits all over the country. By partnering with RGS, you’ll benefit from their knowledge of solar solutions and flexible financing options that incorporate savings from state and local government incentives.
