Community Solar Pricing Information

One-time administrative fee: $20


UPFRONT CHARGE: $20 per block
MONTHLY CHARGE: $10 per block
MONTHLY CREDIT: ~5.5¢ credit per kWh*

(*varies based on the calculated annual value of solar)

For example, if a member subscribes to the 5-block maximum, the initial charge will be $120 ($20 administrative, $20 upfront per block x 5 = $100). After the initial sign-up, the member would be charged $50 per month ($10 per block x 5). The member would then receive credit for their portion (5 blocks) of the total energy output for the entire solar garden for the month.
