Combine high electricity rates and 1BOG’s best discount ever and you have one of the shortest payback times for solar panels in the US.

What’s more exciting than Jones Beach Theater tickets going on sale? The brand new Long Island solar group discount that we just launched, of course.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • It’s the best group discount on solar we’ve ever negotiated, more than 20% off market prices for panels and installation
  • Our local installation partner is Mercury Solar Systems, our top choice for our first Long Island campaign.
  • The pre-negotiated deal includes an option for a no-interest (“same as cash”) loan, which makes it infinitely more possible for Long Island families to consider going solar.
  • With the group discount plus solar rebates, Long Islanders finally have a real alternative to the pricey grid electricity there.

If you live in Long Island, simply sign up for 1BOG (free) to get in on the group discount. You’ll get access to our pre-negotiated rate of almost 20 percent off market prices on solar energy. You can kick exorbitant LIPA bills to the curb, gain a competitive advantage for renting, and keep Long Island clean and sustainable for future generations. The Long Island solar group discount is on now.

By the way, if you’ve been considering solar panels for your home but are still in the information gathering stage, here’s a great guide on solar energy, written entirely from the homeowner’s perspective. And if you have any questions at all, your Long Island Solar Advisor is Jordan Pfiefer. You can call him at (516) 209-3979 or email him at jordan (at) 1bog.org.

UPDATE: We’ve had a few questions about payback time and we’ve modified the post to reflect those concerns. While it depends largely on your electricity usage, a 4.5 kW system will pay itself off in around 4 years–still an excellent payback time! Apologies for any confusion!

    just wondering when you’ll be campaigning in Norfolk, Virginia?

  2. Nancy Says:

    I used your on-line estimator for Long Island and it says the payback will be 4 – 5 years. Just wondering how you’re getting to 2.4 years?

    Hi Sabrina,

    Right now you can see how many people are signed up around you when you sign up at the 1bog site. Soon, we’ll start showing how many more we need to run a program there (And we’ll email everyone when that is up). But, unfortunately, I can’t answer that question today.

    Hi Nancy,

    It really depends on your monthly electricity usage and the system size you decide to go with (ie how much of your electricity usage you decide to offset).

    Based on the average numbers for system size and monthly utility bills that we have, a 4 year payback time is pretty reasonable.

    4-5 years is an excellent payback time!
