Many Hawaii homeowners have made solar money by adding solar to their homes. The microclimates of Hawaii can greatly affect the amount of sunlight reaching certain parts of the house. That's why a site survey is vital to ensure accurate production. Sunrun and a team from engineers will complete the site survey.
Brightbox
HECO customer Anthony Aalto installed the Sunrun Hawaii Brightbox solar-powered battery system at his Honolulu residence. Hawaiian Gov. David Ige (Hawaii Electric CEO) and Kirk Caldwell (Hawai Electric CEO) attended the installation. New solar customers in Hawaii can use the Brightbox system on either prepaid or monthly leases. It is priced lower than utility power. Although the current price for a Brightbox system in Oahu is $0.19/kWh at present, that will decrease as oil and natural gases prices decline. In addition to solar power, the Brightbox system can also provide power to the grid and help stabilize the grid.
Brightbox batteries can be purchased for between $7,500 and $8,500. The price does not include solar panels or installation. The Brightbox battery can be leased or purchased. It comes with a full service contract and warranty for 20 years. Brightbox batteries are available for installation inside and outside your home. There are several configurations and sizes of batteries available.
Monthly lease
Sunrun is your best choice if you are looking for a monthly rental agreement for a Hawaii-based solar energy system. The company offers residential solar lease plans in most parts of the state, including Kauai. Solar plans are also available with battery storage so that you don't get left behind.
Sunrun offers both monthly leases and power buy agreements. Monthly leases enable you to save energy right away with the ability to pay monthly. They include monitoring and insurance as well as a Performance Guarantee. And, unlike traditional solar leases, you can transfer your lease to someone else at any time.
Power purchase agreement
Sunrun will earn credits through Hawaiian Electric to deliver energy from its customers’ home solar systems. Sunrun will be able to expand its home-solar product range through this revenue stream. Hawaiian Electric customers will benefit from the credits they receive on their electricity bills as well.
The company is the largest provider of home solar and battery storage in the U.S., and it is now looking to enter the growing market for grid services.
