how it works
Community solar, also known as shared solar or solar farms, depending on your location, makes renewable energy accessible to all. This not only helps your community reduce its reliance on fossil fuels but helps those who participate save money.

Subscribers pay for the energy produced at a rate lower than the bill credit
Step 5
The result is a net savings for subscribers from locally sourced clean energy
When I moved into my current townhome, I was interested in solar electric but was hesitant to put it on my own roof as I didn't know how long I would be here. Participating in community solar allows me to get some benefit against my electric bill without the upfront investment or commitment.
When I initially read about the program, I found it a little hard to understand how it would work, or maybe even a little hard to believe that it was as simple as it is... I pay some amount for community solar, and then I see a credit on my utility bill which is 10% more than what I paid. Concretely, I'm saving $10-$20/month. The intangible benefit is that I just feel better knowing a chunk of my electricity is coming from the sun and not fossil fuels.
I have a roof that is less than ideal for solar because I have a lot of great trees that I’m not willing to cut down. Community solar offers a great opportunity for people like myself who want to participate but may not have a roof that is conducive. I really recommend community solar, and I have benefited tremendously financially as well.
