Geoscape Solar has launched New Jersey’s first residential solar energy program. The new leasing program announced by Geoscape Solar is available statewide in which the customers need not pay any upfront costs. The consumers have to pay a monthly fee for the electricity produced by the solar energy system, which is lower than the utility cost. The leasing program was designed to eliminate the upfront costs associated with the purchase of new solar power systems. It not only provides an affordable way for customers to go solar but also saves money.
