Bringing More Solar to Everyone
Community solar is a great way for small and medium-sized businesses as well as homeowners and renters, without suitable solar rooftops, to reduce their energy costs. Subscribers pay a monthly fee to off-site ground-mounted solar farms or solar rooftops and get their electricity bill credited for their portion of the savings.

Flexibility To Choose Any Site
Choosing a site location is key to a successful project. Various federal incentives and state regulations are available depending on land-use and grid zoning codes, subscriber eligibility requirements, and other considerations.
SolarEdge’s MLPE solution and its superior design flexibility enable more modules to be installed and more energy generated from each module for higher yields – regardless of terrain conditions. This makes degraded or contaminated land that typically qualifies for more tax credits and faster environmental permitting even more attractive. By eliminating the need to grade sloped land, SolarEdge also reduces redevelopment costs, which helps you maximize your profits and ultimately offer compelling subscriptions.
Simpler O&M
SolarEdge’s Monitoring Platform provides visibility into each module’s performance, with fault detection alerts for remote maintenance and easier O&M. This granular monitoring also enables third-party administrators to effectively manage subscriber billing, and subscribers in turn benefit from more system uptime.
