First of all you should discuss your idea with your landlord.
Renting and solar panels.
In some cases you ll be lucky.
If you buy a solar panel system you own the system either outright if purchasing with cash or after repaying your solar loan.
The main practical distinction between buying and leasing a solar pv system is in ownership.
Another option will be using the portable solar power systems.
What are your options.
Negotiate with a landlord.
You can rent a solar system on your roof for 20 years through a typical fixed monthly lease or through a ppa.
Buying solar panels requires an investment and more decision making than leasing but over the long term the benefits of owning your system are hard to beat.
Leasing your solar panels with a fixed monthly lease.
Invest in shared solar.
If taking on some debt is also not in the cards for you renting is your last option.
