1 · The geography

Why Windham County

Windham County is priced differently than the rest of Connecticut. That is the whole reason this is running here and not statewide.

It is not a coupon and there is nothing to claim. It is the reason the number we can quote you here is lower than the number we could quote someone an hour west.

2 · The offer

What "$0 solar install" means

$0what the install costs you

27¢what Connecticut pays per kilowatt-hour

You are not buying a system. You are buying the electricity it makes, at a set rate per kilowatt-hour, on a roof you already own. That rate is lower than what the utility charges. That is the entire offer.

It is not free power and we are not going to pretend it is. You still get a bill every month. It is a smaller one, from someone else.

3 · The one rule

You have to own the home

✓	You own the home with or without a mortgage	Nothing to buy. Nothing upfront. You pay for the power, not the panels.
✗	You rent the home however long you have lived there	Nothing we can do. The roof isn't yours to put anything on.

You do not own the panels, and that is on purpose. The company that owns them carries the cost, the maintenance and the repairs for the life of the agreement. That is what lets the install cost you nothing.

4 · How it actually works

Nobody hands you a check

The panels go on your roof. The install is paid for by the company that owns the system, not by you.
You buy the power they make. At a set rate per kilowatt-hour, below what the utility charges. Whatever the roof doesn't cover, you still buy from Eversource.
They own it and they maintain it. If a panel fails, it is their problem and their cost, not yours.

Someone promises you a check in the mail or a $0 electric bill? They don't know how this works, or they're hoping you don't.

Straight answer: this one isn't for you.

This only works for people who own their home. There is no version of it that works on a rental — the roof isn't yours to put anything on. Anyone who says otherwise is selling you something. Keep your number.

Honestly? The math probably doesn't work.

Under about $100 a month, the savings don't add up to enough to be worth your time. Better you hear that now than on a call.
