There is no installation, extra costs or downtime.

We are partnering with this fantastic organization to ensure that everyone in our community can take advantage of their local community solar farm as a broader part of the New York State Community Solar Program. With this new state program our residents can join a local solar farm administered by Solstice and receive energy credits that are guaranteed to lower the electricity bill. 

When you enroll, you will be allocated panels from a Solstice solar farm. Your panels will generate energy that will be credited to you on your electric bill, reducing your electric costs by up to 10%, depending on your eligibility. Solar credits received are based on subscriber energy usage and the solar farm’s energy production, which can fluctuate month-to-month resulting in varied savings.
