Homeowners cut power rates by almost 50%

BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS - The largest renewable energy installer in the Northeast, Alteris Renewables, in partnership with SunRun, the nation's largest home solar financing company, is enabling homeowners to cut their electricity costs up to 50% of their current rates with a solar energy system installed for as little as $3,000 down.

This program turns solar into a risk-free, budget-saver for homeowners. In addition to lowering their utility costs starting on day one, customers enjoy locked-in rates from SunRun that protect them against rising utility prices which are expected to nearly triple over the next 18 years.

Because SunRun maintains, repairs, and insures their systems, homeowners will experience clean solar-generated power without any additional hassle.

"With the SunRun solar service, we get to lock in a really low electricity rate for the next 18 years," said Teige Davidson, a homeowner in Arlington MA who recently signed-up with Alteris and SunRun. "Our family thinks this is a great opportunity to do our part to save the environment, and save money at the same time."

In addition to removing cost barriers to going solar, SunRun also eliminates the confusing responsibilities of filing for tax credits and navigating complex state and Federal incentive programs for solar.

"Alteris Renewables is one of the most trusted names in solar across Massachusetts," said Lynn Jurich, president of SunRun. "We're proud to be continuing our relationship with Alteris and helping homeowners in Massachusetts take control of their electricity costs and reduce their household pollution."

"Homeowners have struggled to lower their energy costs and their carbon footprint," said Ron French, president of the Solar Business for Alteris Renewables. "Now they can easily start energizing their homes with a powerful and environmentally-friendly solar electricity system while cutting their utility costs by up to 50%."
