Robson, American Solar partner on homes

Robson Communities Inc. and American Solar Electric have partnered on two adult communities to integrate solar into new homes. The deal will allow solar at homes in Pebble Creek in Goodyear and Quail Creek in Sahuarita south of Tucson. Homebuyers will be able to choose between 2.5-kilowatt or 4-kilowatt systems. If buyers opt not to install a solar system when the home is being built, it will come with a solar-ready feature that includes the wiring necessary to install a system later, officials said. That lowers the cost of a system. American Solar has partnered with several builders in the past two years to find a new market for solar systems. Among its other Arizona partners are Elliott Homes and Calex.
