Many Hawaii homeowners have added solar to the roofs of their homes as a financial investment. The microclimates of Hawaii can greatly affect the amount of sunlight reaching certain parts of the house. A site survey is essential to ensure accurate production. Once the site survey is complete, Sunrun will work with a team of engineers on the island to finalize your system design.
Brightbox
The Sunrun Hawaii Brightbox solar battery system was recently installed at the home of HECO customer Anthony Aalto in Honolulu, Hawaii. Hawaiian Gov. David Ige and Hawaii Electric CEO Kirk Caldwell. Brightbox is available to new customers in Hawaii with prepaid or month-to-month leases. This system costs less than the cost of utilities power. The current price of a Brightbox system on Oahu is $0.19/kWh, although that is expected to decrease as the cost of oil and natural gas declines. The Brightbox system is able to provide solar power as well as power the grid. It can also stabilize the grid.
Brightbox batteries are available from $7,500 to $8.500. This price does not include installation or the cost of solar panels. You can either buy the Brightbox outright or lease it. The warranty and full service contract for the Brightbox is 20 years. Brightbox batteries are available for installation inside and outside your home. Brightbox offers a variety of sizes and configurations.
