Community Solar is a great way to get the benefits of rooftop solar without the upfront investment. Where it’s available, anyone with an electric bill can sign up—if you rent your home, or have a shaded roof, you can subscribe to a local solar farm and get 100% clean energy just like rooftop solar. By subscribing to these programs, your utility is obligated to purchase energy on your behalf from small scale solar farms in your area.
Subscribers experience a range of benefits, including guaranteed renewable energy, a discount on your energy bill, and easy sign up and cancellation. Low-income subscribers can get an even larger discount on their bill. By connecting individuals, businesses, organizations, communities and developers to solar energy, community solar provides support to develop solar projects and expand access to clean energy to more communities across the country.
