SELECTED PARTNERS
We Work With…
(Click the links below to learn more about what a partnership with Solstice looks like for your organization.)
NONPROFITS
Arc Rockland
By working with Solstice, nonprofits and community organizations can access clean and affordable energy, reducing their electricity costs and freeing up resources for their core mission. The Arc Rockland, a nonprofit that supports over 1,000 community members with intellectual and other developmental disabilities, found community solar to be a no-cost solution to reduced energy bills. The organization enrolled 28 of its own properties and ran a referral campaign for friends, family, and employees to join Arc in the program which generated additional funds for the nonprofit through our referral program.
GOVERNMENT
Village of Kildeer
Municipalities can partner with Solstice to bring clean energy savings to residents. The Village of Kildeer wanted to give its 1,200 residents a renewable energy option for their electricity without compromising the town’s appearance and policies that prevented rooftop solar installations in Kildeer. The town partnered with Solstice to run a three-month campaign to educate residents on community solar and help them enroll in the program.
HOUSING AUTHORITIES
NYCHA
Housing authorities can benefit from Solstice in two ways depending on who pays the constituents’ electric bills by either seamlessly enrolling their meters or by running a referral campaign for residents to enroll their own meters. The New York City Housing Authority partnered with Solstice to enroll residents to a community solar project located on its rooftops.
HOUSING ASSOCIATIONS
Gardens at Rhinebeck
Property managers and Homeowners Associations can work with Solstice to bring clean energy access to residents. The Gardens of Rhinebeck, a luxury condominium complex in Hudson Valley, chose to source their community solar subscriptions through Solstice because we offer no enrollment fees and shorter contracts compared to other community solar providers.
HOUSES OF WORSHIP
Unitarian Universalist Congregation
By joining forces with Solstice, houses of worship can unlock newfound savings for their members while simultaneously raising vital funds for their core programs. The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the Catskills raised thousands of dollars to fund improvements to its core programs by enrolling congregants in community solar.

Frequently Asked Questions
Some organizations run a referral campaign that brings clean energy access and electric bill savings to constituents. Others choose to enroll all of their own meters to receive substantial savings through the life of the solar project. Many organizations choose to do both!
The kinds of marketing materials we create for your referral campaign depends on your organization’s needs. Our partnerships team will go over your options and discuss what will work best for your campaign in your first meeting.
Choosing to work with us requires only a small time commitment. You'll tell us the best ways to reach your community and we'll take the reins for any marketing materials and informational sessions to educate and enroll your community. Your role will primarily involve sharing the materials we create for your campaign.
Solstice was founded as a nonprofit by two women of color with a mission to make clean energy affordable and accessible to all. Community partnerships have always been at the heart of our work, and we pride ourselves on our commitment to serving the needs of our customers. We prioritize negotiating the most customer-friendly terms possible. We understand that financial barriers can hinder access to renewable energy, so we've eliminated credit checks, sign-up fees, and cancellation fees. Our goal is to ensure that going solar is a hassle-free and affordable experience for all.
There really isn’t a downside to community solar with Solstice since you can cancel at any time and you’re guaranteed to see savings. Community solar does save you less money than you would save if you installed solar panels on your rooftop, but if you can’t install rooftop, this is the next best thing.
Nope! You can subscribe to community solar no matter who provides your power, as long as you have an opportunity in your area. You can even keep your energy service provider, too, if it's different from your utility. Community solar hooks right up to the existing grid, so you'll see no change in the way in which you get your power.
