Baseline Changes

Effective Monday, March 31st, several adjustments will be made to Goodleap pricing as a result of changes to how Goodleap compensates installers for domestic content. 


In short, Freedom Forever previously received rebates from Goodleap for installing projects that qualified for the 10% domestic content ITC adder. Freedom Forever passed these through to you in the form of lower baselines. Starting Monday, domestic content benefits will now be passed through to Freedom Forever in the form of higher EPCs (the amount displayed in Aurora that Goodleap pays out for each solar installation).


As a result of this change, EPCs will increase somewhere between $.20 and $.75 depending on the state, utility and product. Freedom Forever will be increasing baselines in line with these changes to make up for the loss of rebates. 


In almost all instances, this is a net positive change that will increase net pricing somewhere between $.02/W and $.30/W.

Allowing Add-Ons

Goodleap is now allowing add-on systemʼs as part of a pilot program


Here are the requirements:

1. The second system acknowledgement form must be signed by the consumer and contractor

 2. The first system has been in service for at least 1 year Proof required)

 3. The second system is a completely separate system with separate meter/monitoring


CA NOTE Keep in mind that an add-on is not the same as non-export. As of now, any add-ons in California would not be considered non-export and would therefore transition the existing system from NEM to the current NBT. We plan to offer this option in the future, but some details still need to be finalized.

GoodLeap Arizona Expanding to SRP

Freedom Forever is happy to announce the expansion of GoodLeap into SRP in Arizona!

 

However, due to pending GoodLeap contract language changes required by the utility, any new projects sales will require an additional amendment to be signed prior to installation. GoodLeap expects to have language approved by mid-January, at which point the new documents will be available to send and sign. Projects cannot be installed until the new documents are signed. Any new projects sold after that point will not require additional documents.


When the new documents are available, Freedom Forever will trigger them to be sent and open a ticket in LIGHTSPEED to notify the sales representative.
