The Facts on DOE’s Puerto Rico Energy Resilience Fund

Myth: Residential solar energy installations could become a costly burden on households. 

Fact: Solar energy installations and equipment provided through the PR-ERF pose no up-front cost to consumers. The average eligible household will have minimal contributions to the long-term maintenance of the systems, a cost that is more than offset by the reduced energy bills. This will ensure these systems provide reliable electricity across their lifespan.
