What’s the best deal for Solar Energy panels for your home?

What’s the best deal going on companies leasing out Solar Panels in California?

Solar Power Purchase Agreements, or PPA, have historically been for large systems for commercial and municipal customers. However, they are starting to venture into the residential sector.

Buying the power from the panels instead of the panels itself can help with the upfront costs and lock you in to a lower per kwh cost than buying from the electric company. However, you would not qualify for the rebates available if you bought the equipment yourself, so you would continue to pay for electricity after the equipment was paid for if you bought it outright.

I don’t know anything about these companies, but a quick search for California Solar PPA turned up:

    you have been very mislead by someone.
    Or ?
    did you listen to a Obama speech or something ??

    EDIT ;

    thanks for response via e mail.
    But if you think you can save money
    by, renting solar panels , then you are a very ignorant person.
    The only way that a scheme would would work ,is if the company that is leasing the panels to you ,,have
    bribed " lobbied " the local or fed politicians to get subsidized to provide the panels.
    then they get payed to install them
    and guaranteed to make a profit by the gov.
    for "" green energy""
    that is why you have to pay 25 cents , while most people pay 10 cents , because you subsidizing all the profits of these Professional thieves.
    Who’s job is to find new ways to get into that deep pool of public dollars,,"tax dollars" .

    Question for you ..

    Do really think the rented solar panels will?
    1) pay for installation
    2) pay for the cost to buy the panes
    3) pay the sales commission to the people that sold it to you
    4) pay the on going commission to those that over see them
    5) Add to that the higher rate on your elec bill to pay for these people to be subsidized , so they can " rent " you some solar panels ?????????????

    Like I said ,,,,,,,you must be very ignorant about energy.
    Or very Ignorant about the thousands of companies that are formed to succk tit of the tax payers.
    You are ignorant on both of those points.

    So dont get piisssed of at me for answering your question !!!!!
    Instead ,
    you should ask why you are so easily led ?
    Why you are so easily "fooled " by the " users " ?
    That is those that use the gov to use ignorant people like you.
    HAHAHAAH.
    And you fell for the whole scam without even realizing it
    That is why I use the word ignorant ,, because you are.
    If you dont know what "ignorant " means google it to find out.
    because you are,
