SunRun and Toll Brothers Unveil New Solar Home Models

September 21, 2010

Orange County new home community offers SunRun’s solar power service for $0 down YORBA LINDA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SunRun, the nation’s leading home solar provider, and Toll Brothers, the nation’s leading builder of luxury homes, today announced the official opening of new model homes with pre-installed solar panels. The two companies, in cooperation with PetersenDean Roofing and Solar Systems, announced a partnership earlier this year to pre-install solar panels at no additional cost to homebuyers at The Preserve new home community. Last Friday, September 17, Toll Brothers hosted the official ribbon-cutting ceremony to open the community to the public. Traditionally, solar panels have cost $30,000 for homeowners. With SunRun’s solar power service, homeowners at The Preserve can sign up for solar power for $0 down instead of buying a system of their own. This service costs about $42 per month, and will lower their monthly power bills by $50 to $100, depending on the amount of power used. To date, over 90% of The Preserve buyers have elected the SunRun solar power service as part of their home purchase. SunRun’s solar power service makes solar affordable and risk-free for homeowners. SunRun owns, monitors, and maintains the solar equipment so residents can reduce their environmental impact without purchasing, installing, or maintaining the solar systems themselves.
