PosiGen was founded in 2011 to offer low and middle-income families access to affordable solar energy. The company also helps families implement energy efficiency strategies that help cut their energy costs dramatically. Energy efficiency upgrades offered by PosiGen include a programmable thermostat and air sealing.
In addition, it includes weather stripping, duct repair and sealing, and Compact Fluorescent Lightbulbs (CFL). Through the solar leasing program, the solar power company has been at the forefront in helping low-to-moderate income families install solar panels. PosiGen’s client base continues to grow constantly because of the immense benefits that the customers enjoy, such as reduced utility bills and energy-efficient homes.
Since its establishment in 2011, the solar power company has installed solar energy to more than 18,000 customers through leasing and purchasing. Leasing is the preferred option for most customers because of the immense benefits. Customers at PosiGen that choose the solar leasing program enjoy easy monthly payments, system monitoring, and energy-efficient upgrades. PosiGen has also helped homeowners own solar panels through purchasing options by offering flexible financing options and cash discounts. In addition, the buyers enjoy 12 years’ system monitoring.
PosiGen is responsible for the installation process from the design and engineering stage to the activation step. PosiGen utilizes a net metering system, which benefits the customers. Unlike the one-directional kilowatt meters, which only measure the amount of electricity consumed, a net meter credits clients with the excess electricity produced by the customers. However, if the solar panels from PosiGen produce insufficient solar energy, the deficit will be delivered from the grid. Homeowners who get credit for the surplus can use them to get free electricity from the grid.
