Clean, renewable energy for everyone
Community solar is the ultimate win-win for you or your business. When you sign-up with a local community solar farm you’ll save 5-10% on your electric bill and use 100% clean energy to power your home or business. You’ll also be supporting our local economy, Maryland’s transition to renewable energy, and the fight against climate change.
Maryland Community Solar is a local organization educating businesses and consumers about the benefits of community solar and helping them enroll in the program that’s right for them. We’re on a mission to make Maryland a leader in sustainability and renewable energy and we hope you’ll join us!
