Solarize Campaign
A community-organized group purchasing program where residents collectively negotiate lower solar prices from a pre-selected installer through bulk buying power.
Why It Matters
Solarize programs typically deliver 10-20% lower prices than individual purchases. They also simplify the process — one vetted installer, one set of pricing tiers.
