Sugar Hollow Solar celebrates 16th anniversary with lease payment giveaway

July 29, 2026 · Solar Power World · Score: 18

Sugar Hollow Solar, an installer serving the Carolinas, is marking its 16th year in business with a lease payment giveaway. The company now offers residential solar and battery backup through a leasing option with Palmetto LightReach, letting homeowners get panels and storage without buying the system outright. As part of its anniversary promotion, the company will cover the first year of lease payments for the first 50 homeowners who sign a qualifying lease agreement by August 31, 2026.

That means someone who signs up under this deal would start saving on their electric bill right away, without paying anything toward the lease for the first year. The promotion covers both solar panels and battery backup, so it applies to systems meant to keep some power running during outages as well as generate electricity day to day.

The offer is limited to qualifying homeowners in Western North Carolina, and only the first 50 signups will get the free year of payments before the August 31 deadline. If you live in that area and have been considering solar, this could lower the upfront cost of trying a lease arrangement, though the usual terms of a solar lease still apply after the first year. More details, including how to qualify, are available directly from the company at its promotional page.
