How community solar works
Large solar panels feed electricity into the grid.
When you subscribe you receive a portion of the solar energy output and solar credits directly on your utility bill; these credits represent the portion of your utility bill that will be reduced by 5%.
Your utility company will remain your electricity provider, and you simply save money every month on your utility bill.
Support New York’s
renewable energy goals
New York has made significant progress in deploying community solar.
Recently surpassing 2 gigawatts of installed community solar capacity - enough to power 393,000 houses, condos, and apartments, and commercial businesses.
This milestone contributes to the state’s goal of 10 gigawatts of distributed solar by 2030 under the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) Community solar currently makes up 61% of New York’s total solar installations in 2023.
By enabling broader access to solar power, community solar expands the state’s renewable energy adoption and reduces greenhouse gas emissions from electricity generation. It is a key part of New York’s strategy to achieve the CLCPA target of 70% renewable electricity by 2030 and a zero-emission grid by 2040.
Joining community solar directly supports these ambitious clean energy goals.
