Maine rates up 42% since 2020. Lock in a lower payment with solar you OWN — not a lease, not community solar. $0 down. Fixed payments. No escalators.
CMP supply rate jumped to 12.72¢/kWh in 2026 — up 20% from last year alone. Versant is following with +23% increases. Your electric bill will keep climbing unless you lock in a fixed solar payment.
The Maine Public Advocate found customers paying MORE than without solar. Billing errors, confusing credits, and NEB reforms cutting community solar compensation 20%. Own your panels instead — no subscription surprises.
The residential ITC (Section 25D) expired, but the commercial ITC (Section 48) is still alive. Propel's hybrid structure lets a third-party owner claim the 30% credit and pass that savings into your lower payment — a 30% built-in discount.
Same system on your roof — very different outcomes over 25 years.

Estimates based on average utility bills, 3.14$/W system cost, and 25% savings target. Your actual savings depend on your specific usage and roof.
CMP rates keep climbing. Lease payments escalate. Propel stays flat.
By year 25, your CMP bill would be $579/mo and a lease costs $362/mo. With Propel, you still pay $184/mo — saving over $395/mo vs. your utility.
