What are solar leases?
Solar leases involve an agreement in which a landowner leases land or rooftop space to a renewable energy company for the installation of solar panels. The solar provider typically oversees the installation, maintenance and operation of the solar energy equipment and pays the landowner a rental fee for the use of the property.
These arrangements offer landowners an efficient means of generating income and supporting sustainable energy production without significant upfront investment.
