The Sun Farm Network, a turnkey service currently available only to residential properties in New Jersey, makes solar power affordable and easy to use. In addition to providing the equipment, design, and installation, the Network offers financing that eliminates up-front cost, and support programs that make solar power easy. Customers pay for their solar equipment out of the cost savings realized through reduced utility bills. Sun Farm's stated goal is to make their customers' equivalent cost of solar electricity at least 10% less than what they would ordinarily pay in utility bills. Interesting model. Let us know if you've heard of similar services elsewhere.

    Sun Edison, based in Baltimore, operates a similar model in the D.C. area, as well as New Jersey, California, Pennsylvania, Texas, and New York, among possibly other states as well.
