What is a Community Solar Garden?
The benefits of solar at no cost to you
Do I need to put anything on my roof?
Nothing! In a nutshell, community solar offers a way for virtually anyone to go solar without installing solar panels on their roof or their property. Membership to the garden is free, but limited to only a certain number of households in the area.
As a subscriber, you will experience no change in how you receive your electricity.
Will my utility provider change?
