Sunrun $6 for 6 Promo! - Sunrun PPA/Lease customers can now sign up and only pay $1/month for the first six months! The incentive applies to all markets excluding CT, and is for new customers with a signed agreement date between 5/1 and 6/30. Please reference the FAQ and terms for additional details.
Sunrun Credit - Sunrun now only requires the last four digits of the customer's social security number. This change will make homeowners more comfortable running credit and should improve the overall customer experience and sales rep close rates! When running credit please ensure the customer's full, legal name and address is used to eliminate potential delays with the credit result.
CA PACE - Effective Monday 5/3, we will no longer offer PACE funding. More and more cities in the state are not participating in PACE (click here) and there has been an increased number of homeowners who did not fully understand what they were signing up for (article link).
Premium Panel Changes - Beginning Saturday 5/1, the premium panel options will be updated to the following two options-
370-380W ($.10/w)
Sunpower ($.30/w)
Removing $.05/w Re-roof Management Fee - We have begun to see more issues when sales reps or customers manage the re-roof process so we are removing this adder in hopes to make it a smoother process and incentivize more re-roof projects to be managed through BPS. Please note, if you do use your own contractor to complete the roof work, they must be licensed and insured in the state they operate as well as pull any necessary permits from the AHJ.
Storage - Batteries are only available through BPS in the CA and Puerto Rico markets. The supply of batteries continues to be scarce and given the higher demand in these two markets we want to prioritize our supply. There may still be delays in receiving all equipment but we will do our best to stay on top of it and communicate any changes to both sales and customers.
MARKET UPDATES
IL Promo Pricing - As we reopen the IL market, BPS has implemented a lower redline for our partners selling or looking to sell there! Traditional door to door knocking is still prohibited but we see IL as being a great long term solar market for years to come. If you and your team are interested in selling in IL, please review the training resource here which needs to be signed and completed by each sales rep.
