Electricity generated from a solar farm is delivered to the electric grid. Members receive solar credits each month that automatically subtract from their total costs to the utility.
Any qualified resident, small business, or religious institution with an electric bill in the appropriate load zone can subscribe and go solar; regardless of whether the property is owned or rented.
No problem. If you are already under contract with an energy supplier, buying solar credits will help reduce the costs of your entire bill. If you’re happy with the energy rates you are currently paying, you might as well do both!
You can take your subscription with you! As long as you reside in the same electric utility territory, you can continue to support clean energy and reduce your electric bill.
If you need to stop or cancel community solar for any reason, there no cancelation fees and no penalties.
So... How Do I Get Started?
- You sign up to join a community solar farm in your area.
- Ampion looks at your electricity use. Using this information, we assign you a share of the power generated by your local farm which results in credits on your utility bill.
- The solar farm produces energy that is delivered to the grid.
- You receive your monthly utility bill that includes your solar energy credits. Those credits are deducted from what you owe your electric company.
- The operator of the solar farm, in our case Ampion, bills you separately for the solar energy credits. These credits are typically billed at a discount, often 10% off.
