Why should a member participate?

In 2022, SVEC adopted a clean power plan, a document that puts on paper everything we say we are committed to achieving in being good stewards of the environment. Supporting renewable energy efforts, specifically expanding access to solar, is one component.

Community solar is one part of the full equation to reducing our carbon footprint and will make solar generation available to members who may not otherwise be able to install or own solar of their own. Since at-home solar isn’t practical for all locations and budgets, community solar is an option for everyone.

This is a voluntary program, and we understand it’s not going to appeal to all members. You can be a good environmental steward in many other ways, such as signing up for Beat the Peak alerts.
