What We Do

Founded in 2011, Vivint Solar provides homeowners with simple and affordable clean energy. We believe that going solar should be headache and hassle-free. That’s why we supply the solar panels, and take care of all the installation and maintenance—for little to no upfront cost. 

Why We Do It

Today, electricity generated by fossil fuels accounts for 80% of carbon dioxide emissions.* Plus, it’s expensive. We offer a cleaner and safer alternative so that we can all feel good about energy again. 

How We Do It

We’re able to offset expensive electricity prices because our solar panels produce energy much more efficiently than traditional utilities. You save money by paying for power at a rate that’s lower than what your utility can provide.
