How SunShare Community Solar Works
Solar garden harvests energy from the sun
Nearby solar gardens with hundreds of panels produce clean energy. You subscribe to a portion of that energy without putting anything on your roof.
Garden delivers energy to utility, and utility continues to power your home
Energy generated by the solar garden supplements the power supply with clean, renewable solar energy. You continue to receive and use energy the way you always have.
Subscribers receive solar credits, and displace fossil fuels
SunShare sends you a monthly bill for the amount of solar energy your subscription produces, and your utility reimburses you for the amount of energy your subscription contributes to the grid.

Rated 4.6 out of 5
I can’t put solar panels on my roof, but I wanted to do something with renewable energy. Signing up for community solar was the answer. Makes me smile every time I see those credits on my utility bill.
“It couldn’t be easier to sign up – and it’s a great deal.”
“We’ve got a daughter and I want to teach her to be responsible about how our energy is generated.”
About
How We Started
We’re Rethinking Solar to be More Friendly
Friendly? Yes, friendly! We want everyone to be able to participate in solar! Imagine throwing a party and you can only invite 30% of your friends!
That’s how SunShare founder, David Amster-Olszewski felt when he learned for every person who has purchased solar panels for their homes, 7 more have been told they aren’t good candidates.
David wants anyone to be able to reap the benefits of solar and join the party! And that’s how SunShare got started back in 2011 as the nation’s first community solar company.Â
Because we believe in a friendlier future through community solar. One that is clean, simple, and kind – where anyone can make a positive impact.Â
Our Pollinator Pledge
One of our pledges as a company is to leave the land better than we found it. This means, when possible, we design our gardens to serve as a habitat for bees and butterflies that pollinate local farms. We also try to build on brownfield sites, which include land with limited use such as old landfills or chemical spill sites. Together with you, we are building a future that puts people, communities, and the planet ahead of monopolies and profits.Â
Features
Plus, making a difference with community solar is easier more flexible less costly than rooftop panels.
Save It
Save the large upfront investment of installing solar panels or a wind turbine on your roof (wait, can you even do that?). Simply pay a small monthly fee to feel great about your energy.

Take It
If you’re a renter or you move around a lot, no worries! With SunShare community solar, your plan moves with you as long as you’re in the service territory.
