Solar Expert Support

Instead of purchasing expensive solar panels and installing them on the roof of your house, community solar is more of a team-effort when it comes to producing solar power. Here’s the anatomy of a community solar project:

1. A solar farm site is built in a suitable location, with ready connection to the electricity grid.

2. People from around the state contribute money for management and maintenance of the farm, typically via monthly subscription.

3. Large credits from power generated by the community solar project are sent back to the participants, ultimately reducing their electricity bills. 

Because community solar doesn’t require participants to have a “solar-ready” property (with plenty of roof space, facing the right direction, and in enough direct sunlight), it’s accessible to more people. 

Even Maryland residents who rent or live in apartments can enjoy clean, renewable solar energy. It is easy to see how much you can save!

Also, since the cost of installation and maintenance is split between the collective, nobody has to pay thousands of dollars up front to install solar panels. It’s a much more affordable option to traditional solar panel installation.

Yes!

Many states offer significant tax incentives and credits to consumers who are willing to invest in solar energy. But, most consumers can’t go solar!

Community Solar allows more consumers to participate to the environmental benefits of choosing renewable energy!

As a subscriber, you’ll continue to receive your monthly electricity bill from your utility company. Your share of solar credits will automatically show up on your utility bill as credits, lowering the balance you owe to your utility company. And you’ll pay that balance to your utility company just as you always have.

About a month after receiving your utility bill, you’ll receive a statement from the subscriber organization with the amount of solar credits that was applied to your utility bill, as well as the discounted amount you paid for those credits.

The savings come from the difference between the solar credits applied to your utility bill and what you pay for those credits!  And that difference is guaranteed to be 10% – 30% every month for 20 years!

Switching to Community Solar is easy!

Register here with your email and we’ll show you which solar farms you’re eligible for, and how much you can save.

Your relationship with your utility company won’t change at all!

Only the electrons that power your house. You’ll still receive energy the same way — it will just be cleaner and cheaper!
