Community Solar
Community solar is a different model for solar energy. Instead of installing solar on your own home or property, community solar allows many people to come together and receive power from a larger solar array. Traditional residential solar systems require a large upfront investment, an ideal sunny location, and homeownership.
HG&E is partnering with a large-scale solar developer and offering the solar project’s generation directly to residential customers who opt-in to the program. There is no cost to you – all you need to do is sign up. All residential customers are eligible. For more information see frequently asked questions or contact us.
