Exciting times! We're pleased to announce our launch of a new home energy storage solution from FranklinWH: the aPower2! This cutting edge design boasts a *15 year warranty* AND can be installed outdoors. After a lot of buzz and anticipation, we're proud to be installing the aPower2 across Vermont and the Hudson Valley. The demand for battery backups has never been higher, especially here in the northeast where power outages are common and many homes have solar. Whether you're new to solar, not going solar at all, or thinking of adding a battery to an existing array, our expert staff can back you up.

??Happy Snowy Solstice?? to our beloved solar community! Before the year comes to a close, we’d like to express a warm *thank you* to the thousands of homes we’ve already helped to make the switch to clean energy. Since the beginning, our mission has remained the same, to lower the barriers to the energy transition and take a leadership role in shaping our clean energy future. Thanks to your trust, excitement, participation, and in many cases, your voice, we’ve made great progress. 2024 has not been without its challenges, but we always come back to the power of our community and the inspiration we gather throughout the process of helping homes, farms, schools, and businesses save money with solar. Whether we’re at the kitchen table, up on the rooftop, or back at the office engineering the ideal solar system to suit your needs, it’s a joy to get to meet so many amazing people in Vermont and the Hudson Valley through this critical work. And we’re poised to do a ton more of that work in 2025. All the best for a merry holiday season and a bright year ahead, - The Team at SunCommon
