Solar Group Buy Request for Proposals

Purpose & Background

Civic Works is soliciting Proposals from firms interested in being selected as one or more Residential Solar Installation Companies for its Solar Group Buy Program. The Approved Installers will provide solar photovoltaic (PV) systems to leads generated by Civic Works’ Energy Programs. This Solar Group Buy Program is for customers who will be paying out-of-pocket for their project. 

The Solar Group Buy Program educates consumers and makes the installation of PV systems more accessible and affordable. The program is available to homeowners in Central Maryland, with dedicated outreach in Baltimore City and Howard County. Lower-than-market pricing reflects the reduction in soft costs of marketing and customer acquisition, and an increase in close rates. The Solar Group Buy Program is offered by Civic Works with support from other local partners.
