With our solar electric system loans, you can harness the power of the sun with low rates.
Take Control of Your Energy with a Solar Loan
Purchasing your own home solar system is within reach. Go solar with USC Credit Union and enjoy fixed monthly loan payments, flexible loan terms, and a competitive interest rate. You can also save on your monthly energy bill, qualify for solar incentives, and potentially build property value.

- A longer fixed-rate loan on the remaining portion of your solar electric system cost (i.e. up to 74% of the eligible project cost).
