Community Solar Farm

Solar Farm

Local & Clean Energy

A Solar Farm (also know as a Community Solar) project is a large group of solar panels installed in a sunny location. Anyone in the area of the array can subscribe to the clean energy produced by the panels and get credits on their regular utility bill. No added wires and no worrying about installing panels on your rooftop or anywhere else on your property. All crediting is done virtually through your utility company.

Unlike typical energy sources, a solar farm offers local, clean energy that offsets your electric bill with predictable rates and terms. Gain insight to your future cost of power and rest easy knowing it is coming from a clean and local source.

The Benefits

Know What Powers Your Community

Community Solar is a clean renewable energy source.
By installing solar panels in a sunny, remote location, individuals and businesses around the Community Solar farm can ‘subscribe’ to the clean energy it creates, and accumulate credits towards the balance on their utility account. You can reduce the cost of your electricity, help put more clean, renewable solar power into our energy supply, and never see a solar panel on your roof.

Community Solar power is generated at remote locations so you no longer need to own a home or property owner to get the benefits of clean, solar energy. Plus— Community Solar credits can be used to offset your entire electric utility payment.

The Process

How Does It Work?

Community solar provides homeowners, renters, and businesses equal access to the economic and environmental benefits of solar energy generation regardless of the suitability of their home or business for an on-site solar array. Community solar expands access to solar for everyone, including low- and moderate-income customers, all while building a stronger, distributed, and more resilient electric grid.

You are then buying solar energy at 10% off the value of the energy credits generated. We then provide your membership information to the utility company so they’re able to apply to appropriate credits to your monthly bill, eliminating the cost of the power you were able to utilize in solar.

Billing

Community Solar Billing

When you subscribe to a Community Solar, you will receive two bills each month.
The first bill is from your regular utility company with the applied solar credits added to your balance, typically resulting in a very low if not negative/credited balance.

The second bill will come electronically from your Community Solar provider, showing the value of the credits you received for that month and the price you pay with the 10% discount is applied.
