Did you know you can use solar power to lower your Con Edison bills without installing solar panels on your home?
Community solar makes clean energy simple and available for everyone in your community — even homeowners and renters without rooftops. Here’s how community solar works and why it’s a great choice for you.
How Community Solar Works
Community solar is a program where you share a large solar-powered system with others in your area. Instead of installing panels on your home, you benefit from solar credits that lower your electricity bill every month.
When you join a community solar project, your electric company applies the solar credits as an “adjustment” on your bill, reducing your charges. It’s that simple — no equipment, no hassle, just savings!
Why Join a Community Solar Project?
Switching to community solar is one of the easiest ways to save money while reducing pollution and protecting the environment. You’ll also:
- Lower Your Bills: Enjoy monthly savings on your electric bill without any extra costs.
- Support Clean Energy: Help reduce pollution and make NYC a greener place to live.
- Stay Flexible: If you move within Con Edison’s service area, your savings move with you.
Plus, community solar directly lowers your bill using solar credits — and it won’t affect HEAP eligibility!
