How It Works

Why $0 Is Actually Possible — And Why It Makes Sense for PHR Too

Here's the part most people don't know.

The Honest Explanation, in Plain English.

You don't buy the panels. You don't take out a loan. You don't own anything.

Pure Home Renewables installs solar panels on your roof at no cost to you. In return, you agree to pay PHR a fixed rate per kilowatt-hour for the power the panels produce — locked in for 25 years. That rate is lower than what PSE&G or JCP&L charges you today. And unlike your utility bill, it never goes up.

PHR owns the system. PHR maintains the system. If something breaks — inverter, panel, wiring — PHR fixes it. Your bill stays the same.

That's a Power Purchase Agreement. No catch. No scam. 10,000+ NJ homeowners have done exactly this since 2008.

A real PHR installation — NJ suburb, local crew, one day. This is what $0 down actually looks like.
$0
$0 Upfront — No Purchase, No Loan, No Down Payment
Nothing out of pocket to start. No financing application. No debt. The panels go on your roof and you start paying less immediately.
🔒
Fixed Rate Locked In — Typically $0.11–$0.15/kWh
PSE&G now runs 21.65¢/kWh. JCP&L runs 14.6¢/kWh — both rising. Your PHR rate stays exactly where you locked it, for 25 years.
🔧
PHR Owns & Maintains the System. Breakdowns Are Our Problem.
We install it, we own it, we fix it. Maintenance and repairs are included for the life of the agreement.
📋
The 2026 Federal Tax Credit Is Factored Into Your Rate — Already
The residential solar tax credit was repealed for homeowners who purchase. Under a PPA, PHR's financing partner still qualifies and passes those savings into your rate. The PPA is the only eligible path to federal solar savings in NJ today.

Side By Side

$0 Down Solar Loan vs. PHR Power Purchase Agreement

Both advertise "$0 down." Here's what's actually different.

$0 Down Solar Loan PHR Power Purchase Agreement
Upfront Cost $0 down — but you're taking on $20K–$35K in debt $0. No loan. No debt. You pay for power produced, nothing else.
Who Owns the System You do — repairs after warranty are your cost PHR. We fix it for the life of the agreement. No surprise repair bills.
Federal Tax Credit 2026 $0. The residential credit was repealed July 2025. Loan buyers receive nothing. Savings passed through your rate — PPA financing still qualifies under commercial credit.
Rate Stability Loan payment is fixed — but you're still on your utility for remaining usage, and that keeps rising Your PPA rate doesn't move for 25 years. Period.
What Happens if System Breaks Your problem after manufacturer warranty expires PHR's problem. PHR's cost. Your bill stays the same.
Complexity Apply for loan → get approved → buy system → manage ownership → handle repairs Sign → install → pay less. That's it.
The Real Savings

What Your Electric Bill Looks Like in 25 Years

Your Utility Bill vs. Your PHR Rate — 25 Years
PSE&G raised rates 17%. JCP&L raised 20%. NJ utility rates have increased every single year for the past decade.
2025 2030 2035 2040 2050
Your Utility Rate (PSE&G / JCP&L)
Your PHR PPA Rate (locked in)
+17%
PSE&G rate hike. More increases scheduled.
+20%
JCP&L rate hike. NJ average now 21.65¢/kWh.
$0
Change to your PHR PPA rate. Locked for 25 years.

If that trend continues — and it has every single year for the past decade — your utility bill keeps climbing in 2030, 2035, 2040, 2050. Your PHR PPA rate stays exactly where it is on day one.

And the 2026 federal tax credit? PHR's financing company accesses it and passes the savings through your rate. You don't file anything. You just pay less.

I'd seen the $0 down solar ads for years and assumed there was a catch — a loan, a lease, some hidden cost. PHR took 20 minutes to explain the PPA on the phone. No catch. My bill went from $240 to under $60. I wish I hadn't waited so long.

Common Questions

From Homeowners Who've Seen the Ads and Aren't Sure What to Believe

Is there actually no catch with $0 down solar?
The "catch" — if you want to call it that — is that you don't own the panels. You pay a fixed, lower rate for the power they produce. PHR owns and maintains the system. For most NJ homeowners, not owning the panels is an advantage: no repair bills, no maintenance costs, no ownership risk. You just pay less for electricity.
What about the 30% federal solar tax credit?
The residential solar tax credit was repealed for homeowners who purchase in 2026. However, the savings are still available through a PPA — PHR's financing partner qualifies under the commercial credit (Section 48E) and passes those savings directly into your locked-in rate. The PPA is now the only path to federal solar savings in NJ.
What happens if I sell my house?
Solar homes sell faster and at a 3–4% price premium in NJ on average. Most buyers take over the PPA — it's a selling point, not a liability. PHR can also discuss buyout options. This is rarely the complication people expect.
What does the contract actually look like?
A fixed monthly rate per kWh, locked in for 25 years. No escalation clauses. No surprise fees. You see the full contract before you sign anything. No one camps in your living room and no one pressures you to decide that night.
