The annual escalator is fixed in the contract. It is a way to lower the early year payments but you could opt for a lease with 0% escalator if you want flat payments.

Do you also hate Tesla because they give you the OPTION not requirement to lease a Model S instead of paying cash or getting a loan?

I didn't say I hate Solar City. I said I didn't like the PPA business model. The whole concept seems backward to me. I want solar to get a fixed monthly cost that is hopefully lower than my current electric rates, not to simply trade masters.

As to leasing a Tesla... no, I don't like leasing cars, either.

Like I said, it's okay for you to like that if it's what works for you, but arguing about it is pointless, because you're not going to make me like the idea of paying for solar energy, generated by equipment on my house, by the watt-hour.
