Community Solar
Our community solar defines as any solar project or purchasing program, within a geographic area, in which the benefits of a solar project flow to multiple customers such as individuals, businesses, nonprofits, and other groups. In most cases, customers are benefitting from energy generated by solar panels at an off-site array.
Community solar customers can either buy or lease a portion of the solar panels in the array, and they typically receive an electric bill credit for electricity generated by their share of the community solar system—similar to someone who has rooftop panels installed on their home. Community solar can be a great option for people who are unable to install solar panels on their roofs because they don’t own their homes, have insufficient solar resources or roof conditions to support a rooftop PV system due to shading, roof size, or other factors, or for financial/other reasons.
Community solar helps bring together people with a common interest in powering their homes and businesses with solar energy.
Not every location is ideal for solar panels, nor is it always easy to install your own. We are here to help make solar energy simple and accessible for everyone.

What are the Customer Benefits of Community Solar?
Community solar allows everyone to benefit from solar energy, even if they can’t put panels on a rooftop. In areas where solar power is less expensive than traditionally generated electricity, consumers can save money on their monthly bills. If subscribers move to a new home within the same utility service territory or county, they can typically continue to benefit from their community solar share. Vflit provides the options for selling or donating subscriptions.
What are the Vflit Benefits of Community Solar?
Because most community solar arrays are located off-site, Vflit can strategically locate the systems in areas of the grid that can benefit the most. Additionally, developing community solar arrays enables VFlit to improve their relationships with customers and increase engagement.
