Frequently Asked Questions about Solar Financing

All critical roof maintenance, repairs, or replacement should be taken care of prior to installing solar panels, which will last up to 25-35 years. If you’re roof needs to be fixed, it can be very costly to remove and reinstall the solar panels. Fortunately, if you need a new roof, that project is also eligible to be financed with PACE financing from Renew. So a new roof with solar is affordable.
