“You just heard solar and assumed I’m some weird pickler guy.”
Sunrun is the top provider and installer of solar energy in North America. Their recent advertisement is entertaining and also touches on a lot of the stereotypes that consumers have about solar power as well as sustainability in general. These stereotypes are lessening as sustainability becomes more mainstream. Sunrun’s advertisement focuses on these “hippy” stereotypes that people relate to solar power.
Sunrun understands what consumers these days want from their sustainable products. This means that they require extra value from a sustainable product in order to pay a premium. The Sunrun advertisement mocks the stereotypes consumers still have of people who had solar power when it was first created, yet attempts to convince consumers that because of new technology, solar power is not only affordable now but can actually save you money in the long run.
Solar power is not quite mainstream but it is definitely gaining popularity in certain areas, especially with companies such as Sunrun growing.

Great post, it’s time for everyone to really take a serious look at Solar Power. With the price parity of solar panels and related equipment, now is the time to see if solar is right for you. Check to see if there are subsidized programs in your area like the Ontario MicroFIT Program, that pays you to generate power. Or maybe there is net metering programs that will let you use solar energy as your main source and only rely on Infrastrucutre energy as backup.
