What is Community Solar?
Community Solar is made possible through New York State policies that allow homeowners to purchase their electricity directly from a solar farm. Renters and homeowners can subscribe to a solar farm and save.
Here’s how it works: The solar farm offers you a discount on their electricity. When you are enrolled, the utility purchase and sends that clean electricity into our grid. On your utility bill, you’ll get credits for the same amount of electricity you use that the solar farm generates. And you’ll always see a 10% discount from whatever the utility’s current rate. You’re always guaranteed to save. Win-win-win!
Why should I go solar?
