Solar for the 99%: Landlords Group Buying Program

Tomorrow’s Aeronautical Museum (TAM) is excited to be partnering with American Solar Power and Solar Verified to offer a group solar buying program that allows landlords to install a high quality solar photovoltaic system at $0 cost! Yes, this means 100% FREE! Now you can increase the value of your property for a $0 investment, WITHOUT increasing it’s assessed value, meaning it won’t cause your property taxes to increase.

How it Works – Everybody Wins!

This program works by creating a benefit the renter, landlord, and TAM by putting the entire process online and enabling below-market pricing for high quality equipment. Currently this program works for homes that are served by Southern California Edison only.

• RENTERS – Can reduce their SCE bills to the minimum charge of $10/month for up to three years for FREE.
• LANDLORDS – Can get solar installed on their property for FREE. The solar loan is secured through property tax assessment, which doesn’t require a credit score and doesn’t affect the landlord’s borrowing capabilities (it doesn’t tie up their credit).  For approximately the first three years, the  loan payments would be covered by the federal tax credit paid to the landlord (the landlord must owe some federal taxes in order to receive this tax credit). After that, the renter agrees to pay additional rent to cover the amount of the solar loan payment, which in most cases should still be less than they were paying to SCE before solar was installed.
• TAM – Gets a portion of the proceeds from the sale of solar systems to fund its STEM-based after school program, museum and flight school which helps students from low and middle-income families realize their dreams of flight.

Fast and Accurate Sizing for Maximum Savings

Unlike the typical process for getting solar, we do everything online with our partners to reduce costs as much as possible. To do this accurately and be able to offer our Savings Guarantee, we start by collecting your last 12 months of usage from SCE, broken out hour-by-hour. We then calculate the least amount of solar needed reduce the renter’s SCE bill to the minimum $10/month — for as long as possible. (If the renter increases usage after getting solar, their SCE bill will go up slightly to reflect that increased usage.)
