Community Solar

Solar for Apartments & Condos

For Owners & Renters

Community Solar

No Roof Needed

Despite its steadily growing popularity, solar has been relatively inaccessible to most renters and apartment and condo-dwellers. According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), 78% of American households cannot participate in rooftop solar. With SunShare Community Solar, that all changes!

Now, condo owners and renters can access clean, local energy through an affordable monthly subscription to one of SunShare’s community solar gardens. The gardens, filled with thousands of solar panels, add renewable energy to the electricity grid. You subscribe to a portion of that energy, and your utility buys your portion from you.

Benefits for Condos & Apartments

Anyone with a utility bill in an eligible territory is able to reap the benefits of clean, locally produced solar energy with community solar. We connect to the grid, not your roof, so it’s the perfect solution for those living in condos, apartments, or townhomes.

Available to renters and owners alike

No installation or equipment required

No upfront costs or termination fees

Your subscription moves with you if you move

No approval needed from HOAs or landlords
