What Is Community Solar?

Community solar, also known as solar farms or solar gardens, is a program that enables multiple individuals to share the benefits of a single solar energy system. This solution is perfect for those who can't install solar panels on their property due to unsuitable roof space, renting, living in multi-family properties, or the high upfront costs of solar installation.

By participating in a community solar project, you can access clean, renewable energy and receive credits on your electricity bill. This approach makes solar energy more accessible to a wider audience and encourages support for clean energy practices, leading to a greener future.

How Does Community Solar Work?

Community solar operates through large solar farms, which are plots of land filled with solar panels that harness significant amounts of energy.

Participants either gain access to a specific number of solar panels (ownership model) or purchase a certain amount of electricity (subscription model). In the ownership model, you receive energy credits based on the panels you own, reducing your electricity bill. In the subscription model, you purchase electricity at a lower rate without owning panels, enjoying the benefits of solar power without the upfront investment.

Benefits of Community Solar

• No Roof Requirements: Not all roofs are suitable for solar panels. Community solar allows you to benefit from solar energy without worrying about roof conditions.

• No Roof Damage: Solar panels can sometimes cause roof issues. Community solar eliminates this risk by centralizing the panels in a shared location.

• Aesthetics: If you’re concerned about the appearance of solar panels on your property, community solar offers a solution that doesn’t impact your home’s look.

• Flexible Power Needs: Unlike fixed rooftop panels, community solar allows you to adjust the amount of solar power you receive.

• Cost Savings: Solar energy is typically cheaper to generate, leading to savings on your electricity bills. Many cities also offer utility credits for using solar energy.

Choosing the Right Community Solar Model

Your choice between the ownership and subscription models depends on your energy needs and financial goals. The ownership model offers direct control and potential long-term savings but requires an upfront investment. The subscription model is more accessible and involves no upfront costs, making it ideal for those looking for a hassle-free way to support renewable energy.

Community Solar vs. Rooftop Solar

Deciding between community solar and rooftop solar depends on various factors. Community solar is ideal for those who can’t install panels on their property or prefer a shared approach, while rooftop solar offers greater control and customization for property owners. Consider your available space, financial capacity, and personal preferences when choosing between the two.
