One of the more intimidating aspects of a solar system is, of course, its price.  The tag on a half-decent system creates an explosion of questions regarding whether or not the investment is, in fact, worth it.  There is however, a clever way to significantly reduce the cost of purchasing these panels.  Neighborhood Solar organizes many homeowners into bulk-purchasing groups so that they can easily negotiate a very cheap price with their local solar installation professionals.

As a homeowner, you are paying far more per watt than commercial building owners are.  The concept is simple: the more watts you buy, the cheaper the watts are.  The problem arises when buying more than you need just to get a discount doesn’t make sense.  So how do you get the discount?  You join a group of buyers, put your money in a pool, and buy your panels as if you were one person so that you can get your wonderful bulk-price.

Curious as to how much you’ll save?  Neighborhood Solar even provides an unbelievably in-depth and aesthetically-pleasing online solar calculator.  Check it out!
