Palmetto is a clean-energy technology company that simplifies residential solar management to help homeowners live affordably and sustainably.
The company offers services ranging from solar installation to financing, energy monitoring, and smart home projects. But among its most popular offerings is the LightReach program, which allows residents to lease solar systems with $0 down.
What is Palmetto LightReach?
Palmetto LightReach is a solar leasing program and subscription service in which Palmetto owns the solar system and the resident receives the power. Through this arrangement, Palmetto handles the solar mapping and design, permits, installation, project management, and maintenance.
"You can lock in a rate that's lower and more stable than your current utility bill, with no upfront cost, and no maintenance to worry about," Palmetto says on its website. "With just one monthly payment, it couldn't be simpler." Palmetto is one of many TCD partners that you can connect with through the TCD Solar Explorer.
Why is leasing solar panels beneficial?

If maintenance is required on a leased solar system, Palmetto monitors and fixes the issues, often before a homeowner even notices a problem.
The Palmetto LightReach program helps people lock in savings and set their energy rate for 25 years. It's an effective way to avoid rising energy costs and choose clean, dependable energy that's generated right on your own roof.
