DTE rates have climbed for 10 straight years — and they're not stopping. Lock in a fixed solar rate as low as 13¢/kWh with $0 down, full maintenance, and a 25-year warranty.
The Problem
You're going to pay for power for the rest of your life. The only real question is whether you keep renting it from DTE at a rising rate — or lock in a fixed cost on your own roof.
DTE has raised residential rates multiple times in recent years, with more increases already approved. What you pay today is the cheapest it will be.
Utility rates can change without your approval — driven by rate cases, fuel costs, and infrastructure. No cap, no notice, no opt-out.
Modern panels produce on cloudy days, and Michigan's net metering banks summer overproduction to cover winter usage.
The Program
SpartanX offers a Third-Party Ownership Power Purchase Agreement — a simple way to go solar with $0 down. We install, own, insure, and maintain the system. You just pay for the clean power it produces, at a rate locked in well below DTE.
No loan, no lien, no out-of-pocket cost to start.
Your rate is based on your roof's sun hours — fixed for life of the agreement.
Monitoring, repairs, and a production guarantee — all on us.
Interactive
DTE residential rates have climbed an average of ~6.5% per year for the last decade. Your Solar PPA is locked at a fixed 2.99% annual escalator — no surprises, no rate cases.
Illustrative comparison based on DTE's average residential rate increases over the past decade and a fixed Solar PPA escalator of 2.99%. Your actual rate is determined during your in-home assessment based on roof sunlight hours and shading.
How It Works
We measure your roof's sunlight hours and shading down to the square foot — no guesswork.
We pull your real DTE usage and design a system sized to offset it — so you see exact numbers.
Federal tax credit, program eligibility, and a yes/no answer by the end of the visit.
