Solar Payoff

Solar Payoff does not install solar. Solar Payoff works through a network of expert, typically smaller solar contractors from your area. The skill of our contractor-installers, all licensed, insured electrical contractors, is unrivaled. The trademarked name of Solar Payoff's partner network of local contractors is the The SunCrafters Alliance. These are the contractors who field your request for a bid when you click on the "Get A Bid …." button at the end of Solar Payoff's User Interface. Solar Payoff has a sister firm, trcSolarWorks, that does solar installations, typically larger ones. The function of trcSolarWorks for Solar Payoff is to vet and oversee The SunCrafters Alliance. You can think of trcSolarWorks as Solar Payoff's quality control office. The bid process with contractors from the SunCrafters Alliance takes place on Solar Payoff's website Contractor Platform. There, the actual specification of the bid developed from a contractor's onsite visit are pushed back through the solar calculator using the actual inputs that you have chosen working with the contractor or contractors from whom you have agreed to receive bids. Here we would like to anticipate a caveat that appears as you move through Solar Payoff's User Platform. The Investor Tool on the User Platform is using industry averages and standards. These might deviate slightly from what a contractor will bid as the contractor works with you to develop a system that responds to the specific characteristics of your property and your preferences for actual inputs and siting as a solar adopter. Perhaps the crucial objective of Solar Payoff is to harness the purchasing power of our clients to garner the best volume price from quality suppliers. This volume also attracts to your project the loan providers who offer the best rates on solar or, if you need them, the PPA and equipment lease providers. Smaller, local contractors operating on their own cannot typically offer the lowest cost inputs and the best financing. They need the power of the network to compete. In many ways the objective of Solar Payoff is to "democratize" solar by extending opportunities to our network of smaller but skilled contractors, while also offering our users the best deals the market can provide, thereby building the market for local solar.
