TULSA — Solarize Green Country, a community-based group-purchasing solar campaign, concludes this Saturday – the final opportunity for homeowners, businesses and nonprofits in Green Country to take advantage of low pricing and financial incentives offered via the campaign.
The deadline to enroll is this Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023. Enrollment is to simply sign up for a no-obligation evaluation of your property for solar energy and battery storage. Residents who enroll have until the end of this year to decide whether solar is right for their property.
A coalition of local organizations launched Solarize Green Country earlier this year to help make solar energy and battery storage more affordable in the eight-county area through a unique bulk-purchasing concept. The more who participate in group purchasing, the more costs are reduced for every property owner in Green Country who contracts for a system.
The campaign has reached its 8th of eight progressively lower pricing tiers. Under the Solarize limited-time community offering, anyone who decides to purchase a solar power installation in the initial stages of the campaign receives the same discounts as the last participant.
This means that $2.58 kW is the current price – the lowest possible tier. Already, property owners in Green Country have purchased 354.9 kW of renewable energy systems as well as 63.1 kWh in battery storage through the campaign.
More than 1,340 local residents and business owners have signed up so far to receive a free evaluation.
To formulate the overall Solarize campaign and reduce the cost of buying individually, Solarize Green Country sought competitive bids from solar-energy design and installation companies seeking to become the campaign’s sole installer for a time-limited 2023 program.
The coalition selected Solar Power of Oklahoma (SPO) to provide local property owners with this volume purchasing opportunity.
