1. Contact SunShare. 2. Get a Quote. Consider signing up. I am a client of Sunshare and it truly could not be easier to go solar. Zero money down unless their policy has changed. All you have to do is sign a docusign document which takes about 5 minutes and then agree that electricity will be needed by you and your family for the next 25 years. Every year, I get a check from Xcel Energy for approximately $1,300 because solar panels cost less to operate than coal and nuclear. So basically,

SunShare has been fantastic so far. Our service started toward the beginning of the summer, and we've love it for the first 8 months or so. We had looked into solar for our homes, and it's great that we're still able to help the environment but in a much more attainable fashion that with tradition solar.

We signed up some time ago and, while it took several months for them to get up and going, we've had their service for several months now. I'm always looking to support renewable energy and the cost is very similar to our old Xcel bill. Plus, now we have credits from Xcel which, so the customer service rep told me on the phone, we will get back as a check once a year in the spring so I'm looking forward to that!
