POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT (PPA)
FAQ
What is a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?
A Solar Power Purchase Agreement, or PPA, is a financial arrangement where the customer pays for the
electricity generated by the solar system at an agreed-upon rate.
A solar PPA is nearly identical to a solar lease, but with this arrangement, the contract you sign sets a fixed
price per kWh, lower than what the local utility company charges. With a PPA, the solar leasing companies
are fully responsible for the installation and maintenance costs, and you typically don’t pay any upfront
Fees.

What is a Lease?
A Lease is a financial arrangement where the customer pays a fixed monthly rate to use the solar system
and its renewable energy to reduce utility bills.
A lease and a solar PPA are nearly identical, but with the lease, customers pay to use the solar system

How soon will I save money?
With the Lunar energy plan, power is generated at a fixed rate – helping you to immediately save on your electricity bill.
How does it work if my electric company raises their rates?
The Lunar Energy Plan provides an annual fixed, predictable cost of electricity for the duration of the agreement that escalates at rate often lower then historical and forecasted utility rates.
What is a performance guarantee**?
A home solar performance guarantee gives you the confidence that your home solar system will perform as expected. We predict the amount of energy your home solar system should produce each year based on several factors.
How often is there a true-up of my bill?
We will review and true up the bill every 3 years.
Is a rate escalator different than a true-up?
Yes, Customers will have a fixed monthly payment based on estimated production. This is reviewed every 3 years (true-up) of the term based on actual production. The rate escalator applies to the kWh rate every year. The customers monthly payment will increase annually according to the rate escalator, regardless of the true-up
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Key Insights We Have and Share with You
Interested In Solar
Why should I switch to solar?
The sun rises every day. That's why solar power is a completely renewable, reliable and clean energy source. It reduces our reliance on dirty sources of power such as oil, coal and natural gas, which produce harmful emissions affecting our health and environment.
In addition, solar panels and home batteries are becoming more affordable, accessible, resilient and efficient. They provide peace of mind and energy security for households when the power goes out or the next storm strikes. Unlike those from your utility, Lunar Solar customers pay predictable, affordable rates for 20 to 25 years. With home solar, you get to control your energy future.

Is my home good for solar?
A lot of things affect how well-suited your home is for solar, including where your home is, the angle of your roof, how much shade it gets throughout the day, and how old your home is.
Our solar advisors can help you determine if your home is a good fit for solar at the moment.

How many solar panels will my home need?
Every household is different. When determining the number of solar panels your home needs, consider the following questions:
How much power do I need? Check your electric bills to see how many kilowatt hours (kWhs) you use throughout the year. We’ll go over this with you in detail during your free solar consultation to figure out just how much power your panels will need to produce.
What’s your climate like? The number of panels you need depends on how much sun reaches the ground where you are.
How much direct sun hits your roof? Shading, which direction your roof faces, and any aesthetic preferences you have can impact how big your system needs to be.

Why do you need my historical electricity usage?
Your historical electricity usage allows us to design a custom solar system that is the right size for your home.
Electricity usage varies from person to person and from season to season. That’s why we request a full year of your electricity bills so we can build a system that’s right for you.
Your sales consultant is trained to review a year’s worth of usage data so we can get the full picture. Energy usage can change with the seasons so we look at 12-months of data to best understand your home’s usage patterns and needs.

How does a home solar system work?
A home solar system is made up of components that all work together to convert the power of sunlight into usable energy for your lights, appliances and devices.
1. Solar panels
Solar panels are made of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight to direct current electricity (DC electricity). As long as the sun ray’s are making contact with your roof, your panels are converting solar radiation into DC electricity. Even when it’s cloudy, you can still expect your panels to produce 10% to 25% of their normal output. But your electricity isn’t ready just yet. You’ll need an inverter to get the kind of power you need to turn the lights on.
2. Inverter
The inverter takes the DC electricity produced by your solar panels and turns it into alternating current electricity (AC electricity). It’s typically installed on an exterior wall of your house, or in the garage.
3. Main electric service panel
Solar electricity from your inverter flows to the electrical panel, and then into to your home where it powers your lights and appliances. If your panels generate more solar energy than you use, the excess power will flow to the utility grid. Even better? You might even earn energy credits from your local utility for the power you send.
4. Lunar Solar meter
Your Lunar Solar meter monitors your system production and sends the information to us through a wireless signal. Since it tracks your energy production 24/7, it will automatically alert Lunar Solar if it detects problems or irregularities. That way, we can make sure your solar system is in the very best shape without you ever having to lift a finger.
5. Utility meter
When your system produces more than you need, the excess energy is sold back to your utility and credited to your monthly electric bill. When you need more energy than your solar system can produce, your home will automatically pull the energy from your utility. Your utility meter measures how much energy comes from and goes to the grid.

When will I be able to turn my system on?
You can turn on your solar system when we are granted permission to operate (PTO) from your utility. This typically occurs a few weeks after the system is installed.
Your installation is complete when all the equipment is installed on your home, and the city inspector has signed off on the final electrical building permit. At this point, Lunar Solar submits the final documents to your utility company for interconnection, and the utility will come out to install a new net meter on your home. You will receive a letter or email from your utility company when it has granted you permission to operate, which means you can turn on your solar system.

What is installed as a part of a solar system?
Each home is different, and the equipment we install can vary from house to house. In general, here’s what you can expect.
1) Solar panels
Solar panels convert sunlight into direct current electricity (DC).
2) Inverter
Your inverter tells energy where to flow and converts it into alternating current electricity (AC), so it can be used in your home.
3) Lunar Solar meter
Solar production is measured and monitored by your Lunar Solar meter so we can make sure your system is producing as much energy as possible.
There are also a few pieces of equipment that you already have at your home that are connected to the solar system.
4) Main electrical panel
Your electrical panel distributes AC electricity to your entire home. You probably know it by its other name, "Fuse Box."
5) Utility meter
When the sun is shining, you may get all of your energy from solar, but due to things like weather, winter and night time, you will still have to buy some energy the old-fashioned way. Your utility meter measures how much energy comes from and goes to the grid.

What is Permission to Operate?
Permission to Operate (PTO) is when your utility grants you permission to connect your system to their grid. We cannot turn on your system without it.
To get it, Lunar Solar submits paperwork to the utility to request we be granted PTO. This is your application for interconnection. Inspection must be completed and permits must be approved by your local jurisdiction before the application can be approved.
The entire process can take two to six weeks.
