Community solar is a large facility with many solar panels located in an open space in or near your community. The facility’s solar panels are connected to your utility’s electric grid, not on your roof or your property. Each community solar member is allotted a portion of the solar array and their utility credits them for the energy that their solar panels produce.
Community solar enables utility customers to benefit from clean solar energy regardless of their rooftop situation, shading, or a customer’s ability to install and maintain solar at their service address.
