A better path to solar ownership

Up to 50% lower
on qualifying projects.

Propel and HDM provide transitional-ownership options that may reduce the amount a qualifying homeowner must finance or prepay—while preserving a defined path to owning the solar system.

Homes & Homeownership

A smarter bridge from solar savings to ownership.

A third-party provider temporarily owns the solar and battery system and may claim available commercial clean-energy tax benefits, depreciation, and qualifying bonus value. A portion of that value is reflected in the homeowner's project economics through a reduced financed amount, prepaid energy-service price, or lower payment.

In qualifying situations, combined program value may reduce the applicable project amount by up to 50%. The homeowner does not personally claim the commercial credit, and the reduction is not paid as a cash rebate. The goal is a more affordable entry point with a contract-defined path to future ownership.

What can increase program value

Every property is evaluated individually.

Base commercial credit

The temporary system owner may qualify for federal commercial clean-energy incentives.

Domestic content

Qualifying U.S.-made equipment and project documentation may add program value.

Energy community location

Eligible project locations may qualify for an additional commercial-credit bonus.

System configuration

Solar size, battery storage, equipment, utility territory, and total project economics affect the final offer.

What homeowners should understand

01

Temporary third-party ownership

The provider owns the equipment during the contract's initial tax-credit or service period.

02

Contract-defined transfer

Ownership timing, early-buyout mechanics, home-sale transfer, liens, and insurance requirements are controlled by the signed provider agreements.

03

Provider qualification

Credit, property, utility, equipment, program availability, and underwriting requirements apply.

04

Proposal-specific savings

“Up to 50%” is the maximum potential program reduction, not a guaranteed discount for every homeowner.

Important program disclosure

Program availability and terms are subject to provider approval and may change. Savings depend on project location, system design, equipment, eligible tax-credit adders, provider valuation, credit qualification, and contract terms. REECH does not provide tax, legal, or financial advice and does not guarantee incentive eligibility, approval, ownership transfer, or a specific savings percentage. Review the final provider proposal and agreements before signing.
