How Community Solar Works

Ampion matches you to a solar farm and assigns you a share of the electricity it generates based on your typical monthly usage. The solar farm produces clean energy and delivers it to the grid, increasing the renewable energy available to your community. Credits are applied to your bill each month depending on the size of your share of the solar energy produced. You’re charged for the energy at a discounted rate (either kWh rate reductions or a fixed discount, depending on your utility company).
