Frequently Asked Questions
Why is this a thing?
This program was created to make the benefits of solar and renewable energy available to more people, including those who cannot install it on their own property. Maine established programs to encourage solar and renewable energy development and allow residents and businesses to benefit from electricity generated by shared farms.
​
Renewable energy farms generate electricity and receive credits under Maine's program rules. Customers can subscribe to a portion of those credits at a discounted rate. This allows renewable energy projects to generate revenue while giving participating customers an opportunity to reduce their overall electricity costs.
Will I have to change my electric company?
No. You keep your existing utility, such as Central Maine Power or Versant Power. Your electricity continues to be delivered the same way it is today.
How does community solar save me money?
Your subscription generates credits that reduce eligible electricity charges on your utility bill. The solar provider separately charges you for those credits at the agreed subscription rate.
Does it cost anything to join?
No. Eligibility checks are completely free and there are no fees. Just easy savings!
Is it a guaranteed discount?
Yes. The solar farms make their money by undercutting the utility. It is a locked in guaranteed savings program regulated by the Maine Public Utility Commission.
Can I cancel?
Yes. You can cancel at any time with no extra fees. It will take 80-100 days for credits to stop being applied to you bill. A representative should explain the cancellation policy before you sign.
How do I find out if I qualify?
The easiest way is to schedule a free consultation. A community solar expert can review your utility information, explain available options, and determine whether a participating program may be a fit for your home or business.
