Homeowners throughout South Jersey can now join the 1BOG community to be eligible for the group discount rate on solar panels, which reduces installation costs by around 15%(2). Each 1BOG member is assigned a personal advisor who manages the process of going solar from beginning to end at no cost, eliminating the work and coordination a homeowner used to have to do in order to go solar. 1BOG members also have access to industry-leading tools and educational materials to help them decide whether solar is right for their homes.

"Arguably, New Jersey is the best place in the U.S. for homeowners to go solar. The combination of 1BOG's group discount, the state's special SREC(3) program and Trinity's financing options make solar affordable upfront and an incredible return on investment," said Dave Llorens, CEO 1BOG. "We are thrilled to partner with Trinity, New Jersey's largest solar installer, to service the 1BOG community with top notch products, installation practices and warranties."

"We are excited to have been selected to service 1BOG's South New Jersey campaign," said Trinity Solar President, Tom Pollock. "One of Trinity's goals is to bring simple and affordable solar power to all who want it, and we can make more of an impact in local communities through 1BOG's initiatives in the area."

The South New Jersey 1BOG campaign is available now to local homeowners in Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester, Mercer, Monmouth, Ocean and Salem counties through September 14, 2010.
