Community solar is a shared solar energy program that allows multiple individuals or organizations to subscribe to a central solar facility. By subscribing, participants receive credits on their electricity bills that reflect their share of the energy produced. This setup enables subscribers to benefit from clean, renewable solar energy without paying a large upfront cost, and without having to install solar panels on their own property, making solar accessible to more people including renters and those without suitable rooftop space.

If you're a current Chugach member, you’re eligible! The program will be open to all retail members, including residential, small general service, and large general service members.

The 500 kW AC community solar project will have 1,560 panels and will be built on Chugach-owned land adjacent to the Retherford Substation located at 800 East 94^th Avenue.
