Celebrities and solar savings




Companies love to use celebrities to market their products and solar businesses, apparently, are no different.

Sungevity is pitching its solar-leasing program by calculating how much certain celebrities could cut their energy bills if they added solar, Greentech Media says in this story.

Sungevity, fresh with millions of new capital, said pop icon Madonna would save $260 a month on a lease payment of $164. The estimates are just that - estimates - but it is an interesting marketing ploy.

More solar companies are offering leasing programs as an alternative to buying systems. The leasing plans have expanded the pool of potential customers.
