What's the Real Cost of Solar Lease vs Purchase vs PPA?

Any suggestions for people retiring? :)

Great question! I would say it depends a bit on your scenario. If you plan to retire and stay in the home long term, the purchase option would likely be best. You can take advantage of some tax credits and eventually fully own the system that generates free power for you. If you may move in the future, then I would recommend a power purchase agreement as it is easily transferrable and would start saving you money right away.
