Homeowners Install Solar Panels Without Paying Upfront

CBS Boston

Workers recently swarmed Francisca Guerva’s two-family home, installing a state of the art array of solar panels.

Normally, installing a system of this nature would cost about $30,000. Francisca, however, is paying nothing. She says her neighbors think she has won the lottery.

So how did Francisca manage to get this system for nothing up front? The big difference on her house is the panels were leased.
