The Solmentum Mission
Solmentum is a residential solar power sales company. We sell a program that provides a cost-effective, alternative way to purchase residential electricity. If a home qualifies, it receives a free upgrade to cheaper solar power. Our customers enjoy the benefits of solar energy without the cost of solar panel installation and maintenance.
Together with our partner SunRun, Solmentum is one of the largest creators of residential solar customers in California. We’re dedicated to driving the mass adoption of solar power nationwide.
Our Products
We sell electricity, just like your utility.
But unlike your utility, our power plant will reside on your roof; not in a faraway desert. This keeps our costs low and saves you money.
If you qualify, here’s how it works:
1. Solmentum places solar panels on your roof.
2. You pay a minimal upgrade fee.
3. You buy the electricity at a guaranteed rate.
With a fixed rate each year, you gain both peace of mind and the savings that follow. Plus, thanks to recent Federal and State funded energy programs, we can upgrade most qualified homes for a minimal cost.
So how do we make money? We work with SunRun, our financing partner. Together, we earn a profit on the electricity we sell. This allows us to provide you with the benefits of going solar, without the upfront cost.
