Considering installing solar, but what happens if I decide to rent out?

Hello Japan Financiers,

As the title says I am considering installing the EneKari solar system from Tepco on my new house.

They are with my house maker so it keeps all the warranty intact for the house and roof intact.

General info on the system:
3 kilowatt system with a 4.2 kilowatt battery. Japanese (Sharp) maker, with a 10 year warranty that covers natural disaster.

Total cost is 2.2 mil JPY and Tokyo pays for 58% of it upfront. The rest I pay for over a 10 year loan. So no money upfront. They estimate I will create ¥8295 a month in energy savings and for the first 10 years my loan will be ¥7722 monthly. After the 10 year loan is payed off I just get the savings.

They also do the whole application and everything for the subsidy money etc.

No money down…Seems like a no brainier to me…

But what happens if I decide to rent my place out during the first 10 year loan period?
What about after that?
Do I just not tell the solar company and ask for a higher price as I'm offering free electricity?

Thanks for any and all info and responses!
