How Community Solar Works for You
Community solar works a lot like a community garden. Local utility customers sign up for subscriptions to a central solar facility—known as a community solar garden—and receive credit on their utility bills for energy produced.
How Much Can You Save? It Depends on Your Utility!
Community Solar programs vary by state; savings depend on local incentives and utility policies. Most Join Solar members save around 10% to 15% on annual energy costs, but the exact amount and billing process may differ based on your utility provider.
Save money
When you join a community solar garden, the energy produced goes toward your electric bill. How much you save depends on how much energy the solar garden produces. Most members save 10% annually on their electricity bills.
Support clean, local energy
By joining a community solar garden, you’re saying yes to renewable energy in your neighborhood.
Combat climate change
Community solar gardens reduce demand for fossil fuels, limit greenhouse gas emissions, and shrink our collective carbon footprint.
