What is Community Solar?
Community Solar is Solar for Everyone!
Community Solar programs are developed by state legislatures to promote the expanded use of renewable energy and provide discounts to local customers. Each state has it's own rules and terms for Community Solar. Not every state offers residential and commercial access to these programs. Contact us today with any questions you have about the program where your home or business is located.
Something that sounds too good to be true can quickly turn people away so I wanted to clear up some misconceptions about Community Solar.
- This is NOT a third party supplier situation. Some people have had negative experiences with third party electric suppliers promising savings that were short lived at best and then locked you in. Neither of those will happen with Community Solar. You are not given a rate that can fluctuate. You are provided with a discount off your total electric bill every month.
- There is no installation needed. Solar Farms are off-site and no equipment is needed at your location.
- Renters and leased properties qualify for this great program.
- Why the discount? Think of Community Solar as profit sharing. The developers of the solar farm are required by the state to make sure the community shares in the profits from this large solar array. That's why its called Community Solar. Offering a discount off your electric bill is how they share the profits.
- The power Community Solar farms produce is always fully allocated to local customers well before the construction begins. This is why you should reserve your spot today.
- These programs are offering you a substantial discount off a bill you have to pay every month. There is no cost to participate so there is no reason not to take advantage of this program that will positively effect your bottom line for years to come.

frequently asked questions
While the rules are different in every state, here are the basics:
Do I have to install solar panels on my roof?
No. We build and maintain the panels on our nearby solar farm. You don’t have to build, install or hook up a thing.
How does it lower my electricity costs?
Your allocated share of the solar farm earns you energy credits as it generates power. These credits are automatically applied towards your account and reduce what you owe to your utility. You’ll pay a 5 -15% discount for these credits compared to what your utility would have charged you.
Does this mean I no longer receive power from my local utility?
No. Your power will still be delivered to your home by the same company – we’ll just feed our energy into their grid. If there’s ever a problem or outage, you’ll get the exact same service from the exact same people.
Do I get two bills?
There are plans with 1 bill and those with 2 bills. The 1 bill program discounts everything on one bill. For the 2 bill plan we’ll send you a monthly statement for your share of the farm, and you’ll keep getting your regular electric bill (minus your earned credits). You can sign up for automatic bill pay, which can help alleviate any extra work.
How do I get started?
Contact us today to see if there is a program in your state. If you already know there is a program in your state you can begin the process by emailing a full copy of your electric bill so we can see your usage and determine the size of your allocation.
When will I start seeing my bill credits?
You should start seeing credits on your utility bill 2-3 months after your project goes live. Developers are currently developing numerous solar farms across the country and by enrolling now, you are reserving your spot in one of these solar farms before they fill to capacity. We’ll keep you updated with project updates as we approach your project going live!
What’s the catch?
No catch. We believe in doing right by people and, well, the world.
