How it works

Three steps to a lower bill.

Community solar connects you to local clean-energy generation. You stay with Edison, SDG&E, or your CCA — the savings show up as credits.

1

Match & subscribe

Tell us your utility and ZIP. We match you to the clean-energy options available where you live — and you enroll online in minutes with no money down.

2

Clean energy flows

Local solar generation feeds the grid on your behalf. Your share is tracked every month — nothing changes about the power reaching your home.

3

Credits hit your bill

Your share earns credits that reduce what you owe. You keep your utility and reliable service — you just pay less for cleaner power.

Why it works for SoCal

Built for high bills & full buildings.

No roof needed

Ideal for renters, condos, apartments, HOAs, and homes with shaded or unsuitable roofs.

$0 to start

No panels to buy, no installers in your home, no upfront cost. You're billed only for the clean energy you use.

Keep your utility

Edison or SDG&E still serves you. Same reliable grid, same outage support — just a lower monthly cost.

Flexible, not forever

No equipment tied to your home. Programs are designed to be flexible if you move or change your mind.

Income-qualified help

On CARE, FERA, or ESA? You may qualify for additional state programs. We'll point you to every option you're eligible for.

Cleaner California

Every subscription supports local solar generation and California's push toward 100% clean electricity.

Renting? You're not locked out.

Solar isn't just for homeowners anymore. Community solar was built so renters and apartment dwellers can save on clean energy without ever touching the roof — and as of 2025, California law also gives renters new rights to plug-in balcony solar. Tell us your situation and we'll show you what's open to you.

Good questions

Straight answers.

It's a way to benefit from solar energy without putting panels on your own roof. You subscribe to a share of local clean-energy generation, and your share earns credits that lower your electric bill.

No. There's no upfront cost, no equipment to buy, and no credit check to get started. The goal is to save you money, not charge you for the privilege.

Yes — that's one of the biggest advantages. Because nothing is installed on your property, renters and apartment residents can take part. California has also expanded renters' clean-energy rights in recent years.

Absolutely. You keep your existing utility and the same reliable service. Community solar only affects what you pay — never the electricity flowing to your home.

Savings vary by program and utility, but subscribers commonly see meaningful reductions on the clean-energy portion of their bill. We'll give you a clear, specific estimate for your address before you commit to anything.

California's community solar market is growing but still expanding region by region. If a subscription isn't open in your exact area yet, we'll show you the clean-energy and savings programs you are eligible for, and keep you posted as new projects come online.
