What is community solar?

Community solar is a state-funded program in which local residents, businesses and municipalities can subscribe to a local solar farm to offset their electricity costs.

​

How does community solar work?

Subscribers sign up to "offset" their electricity usage and receive credits on their utility bill each month that mirror their average annual consumption.

​

Who can participate?

Any resident, business of municipal institution that pays their own electricity bill in the same utility as the solar site, regardless of whether they own or rent.

​

What does it cost?

There is no cost to join, and each dollar credit is purchased at an average of a 10% discount. This means that you save $0.10 for every $1.00 worth of credits that appear on your utility bill.
