Solar Panel Installation: Solar Panel Loan

During this age when the entire world needs to adapt to renewable energy (solar panels) to combat climate change and a lower electricity bill, you too can participate in the ‘greening’ of our planet. 

Numerous homeowners have already started using their own solar power or renewable energy system. A solar system is not only an effective method to reduce your personal carbon footprint, but it also provides the opportunity to save homeowners money “solar savings.”

Solar has become increasingly more affordable over the years, especially since there is now solar financing and a solar loan, and government incentives in place to help you get solar yourself.

Getting a solar loan and another Financing option for solar installation is both affordable and beneficial. Overall, solar system installation and maintenance aren’t terribly difficult (because you can hire expert installation partners).

Most of the costs are present at the beginning of the journey. Plus, there is no need to worry because homeowners can get a specific solar panel loan and solar panel financing with a lower Interest rate to help pay up to 100% of the costs of a solar system if you don’t have the cash to pay for the entire cost. 

The main benefit of having a solar system is reducing the power bill. Yes, solar energy can generate quite a lot of electricity, and you can even sell excess power back into the grid through net metering. Most financing companies have their own loan term and interest rate that can be customized depending on your specific situation. Make sure you compare all available options, such as solar financing and a solar panel loan, to maximize your savings.

Why Calculate your Solar Loan using a Solar Loan Calculator?

There are a couple of questions you should ask yourself before deciding whether getting a personal loan, financing, or monthly payment is worth it or not. This is predominantly to protect yourself when it comes to paying off the monthly loan amount repayments to avoid a bad credit score and whether or not you’ll be able to recover the costs.

Questions like:

  • What is the estimated cost associated with your solar system installation?
  • Is it possible to use the Federal Investment Tax Credit?
  • How big of a reduction estimate will your electric bill get after the solar system is installed?
  • Is there a possibility you could get additional financing options in your area to offset the cost of your solar power system or help you pay off the solar loan more quickly?

These can be answered by our professional solar installer(s), utility providers, lenders, and financing specialists.

How to calculate the Monthly Payment and Interest Rate of your Solar Loan

A simple solar loan calculator can help you estimate the cost and benefits of financing your solar panels or solar loan. However, keep in mind that these tips are for illustrative purposes only, and they may be helpful the moment you start thinking about options to finance, purchase or credit your solar system.

Total Loan amount – 100% of the solar installation costs and financing fees

Monthly Payment Amount – Total solar loan amount amortized over the repayment period

Calculate when the monthly repayment amount < Prior utility bill

The key to locating the point in time in which your solar installation is cash flow positive is to find the month in which the entire utility bills avoided surpass your total investment.

Pre-Qualify For Acquiring An Unsecured Solar Loan

There are specific lenders who offer the option of pre-qualifying for a solar loan. Pre-qualifying lets you find out the loan terms you can expect if you were to take out a solar loan ahead of making a finite decision. 

Other solar panel financing options include taking out a mortgage or a home equity loan. However, these options typically take a long time to line up and place an additional lien against your property.

It does not matter what type of loan you’re getting. It’s important to remember that all debt obligations, big or small, should be paid on time to avoid receiving credit penalties and negative impacts on your credit score, leading to a bad credit score.

Conclusion

A solar loan calculator is a very useful tool that numerous homeowners may use to estimate the cost-benefit they have from a solar loan. Overall, a solar system is a great investment that is cash flow positive over the long term. 

But, if you don’t have any cash to spare, then you don’t want to take on a mortgage or a secured loan. Instead, an unsecured solar loan could be a great way to go for you.

Not only is a solar system cash flow positive, but it also has the possibility to add value to your property. New home buyers are increasingly more interested in energy independence while reducing household operating expenses. This means, homes with solar systems are beginning to trade at a premium, and it will only increase in the years to come.
