NEW SOLAR COMMUNITY PROGRAM IN SAN DIEGO

Applied Solar, Inc a leading developer of solar energy
solutions, today announced the launch of its Solar Communities™ program in San Diego County. The program,
which is being kicked off with a series of open house events, aims to expedite the number of homes utilizing
clean solar energy by overcoming two of the most common obstacles to solar adoption: cost and aesthetics.
While Americans are increasingly interested in utilizing renewable energy applications in their homes, many are
hesitant to make an investment in rooftop solar panels due to the high upfront costs, which can run tens of
thousands of dollars. In addition, while state rebates and federal tax incentives have the potential to significantly
defray the cost of solar power, many homeowners are unable to take full advantage of these incentives. Applied
Solar intends to change this.
