Holly pays her electric bill every month for
$150/mo. She feels like she can’t get ahead
financially even with her high HHI. She tried
saving money by not running the AC but that
just left her uncomfortable. She wished she
could be comfortable, save money and curb
global warming. That’s when SolarCity Direct
knocked on her door and offered solar for less
than she pays Edison and that helps her stay
comfortable and protect the environment. She
signed up and feels great about her savings,
comfort and environmental contribution.
