WE ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS
Get the Facts on Community Solar
How does it lower my energy costs?
In short, we give you a discount of up to 50% on your solar credits.
Here’s where it gets a little complicated. When you sign up, we assign you a share of the community solar program. Your share earns you solar credits as the solar panels generate electricity.
For example, let’s say your portion of the farm generates $100 worth of electricity. If your discount rate is 50%, you would pay us $50 for the $100 solar credits received, reducing your overall cost significantly, all while supporting renewable energy.
How much does it cost to sign up?
No cost to sign up, this is purely a savings program!
You will still have to pay your utility bill each month, but you will see significant savings. Your savings from your solar credits + your fees = electricity savings!
How is my subscription size determined and what if my usage changes?
Our Community Solar Specialists analyze your annual electricity usage and use this to determine the appropriate subscription rate. We understand your electricity needs may change and can adjust your subscription to maximize your savings at any time.
How does seasonality affect solar and the credits I receive?
The sun plays a big role in your savings!
In the summer, when the solar panels generate the most, you will receive more savings from your community solar credits. That’s because the dollar amount of your credits is proportionally more.
As we move into the winter months, the solar panels will start to produce less. Meaning any extra community solar credits received in the summer, will be banked to use in the winter. Think of this as pre-paying for your electricity (at a discounted rate) in the summer to use in the winter.
How does billing work?
You will continue to receive a bill from your current utility provider. Your community solar credits generated by the solar farm will be applied directly on your utility bill. You will receive savings equal to 50% of the value of your solar credits, and pay PureSky for the remaining 50%.
Please note, this will not increase the cost of your electricity, instead, you will receive significant savings with community solar.
What if I move or need to cancel?
Oftentimes, your solar subscription can move with you, we want you to continue to save money in your new home!
If for any reason we can’t move your subscription to your new home, you can still take advantage of our referral program and recommend a new customer to take your place.
