Solar Integrated Roofing Corporation(OTC: SIRC) announced last week that they have entered into a national agreement with TPO, third-party-ownership and finance company, to enhance their financing options for their solar and roofing customers. "Bottom line, we have basically eliminated any financial roadblocks for our customers to go solar. This agreement will make our expansion into new areas much easier and more streamlined," said CEODave Massey. "Under these types of arrangements, a resident or business hosts a renewable system that is owned by a separate investor."

The company is working with Sunrun and offering their financing to all of Solar Integrated's clients. The homeowner simply pays a low, locked-in rate for the power that's produced, typically saving 20% on their electric bill.

"This arrangement helps us expand our footprint," added Massey. "Electric utility companies have sent letters to consumers recently, warning of California-Mandated High Usage Charges going into effect next month. These surcharges can dramatically increase electric bills. Our range of financing and TPO options now makes it easy for our customers to decide to go solar, because in every case, they will be saving money from day one. It simply makes no sense to not go solar."
