Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the solar installation really free?

Yes, for homeowners who qualify for the provider-owned PPA program. When the property meets the program requirements, including Pepco eligibility, ownership verification, suitable roof conditions, electrical compatibility, and a successful site survey, there is no installation charge to the homeowner. The solar provider pays for the installation and owns the system during the agreement.

What makes a home eligible?

Eligibility can depend on Pepco service, property ownership, roof quality, usable roof space, electrical system compatibility, shading, access, required documentation, and the results of the site survey.

Does solar guarantee that my electric bill will be zero?

No. Solar may reduce electricity costs, but results vary based on energy usage, solar production, utility charges, system design, and agreement terms.

What documents may be needed later?

Continuing applicants may be asked for a recent Pepco bill, government-issued ID, ownership information, breaker panel photos, signed documents, and other project information through the proper process.

Why is a site survey required?

The site survey allows professionals to examine roof, structural, electrical, access, and installation conditions before final project approval.

Is On The House Solar part of Pepco or the government?

No. On The House Solar is an independent solar consultation and lead-generation business. It is not Pepco and is not a government agency.
