Subscription Solar allows you to buy electricity directly from a solar farm in our region without owning the panels. This can be a great option for renters or for those who are unable to purchase a solar system for other reasons.

Subscription models don't tend to have upfront costs, are usually short-term contracts, and are generally cheaper than utility rates, usually offering a 5% or 10% discount, sometimes higher. Subscription solar works for those who receive a bill from a major utility (e.g. NYSEG) and do not have a demand charge on their bill.

Citizen’s Energy, Meadow, and Nexamp are just three of many community subscription solar options in the region. You can use the links above to register, or contact a Community Energy Advisor for help signing up.
