Putting the Community Back in Community Solar
Maine’s Consumer-owned Solar Provider
Who We Are
Think of us as part solar developer, part social movement. We are a consumer-owned cooperative that develops, owns, and operates small-scale community solar projects on behalf of our members.
Our mission is to provide equitable access to clean renewable energy. We lower energy expenses and improve resiliency through solar power, energy storage, efficiency, and education. We empower communities, strengthen local economies, and promote ecological practices through community-based energy systems.
What We Do
We are in the business of ensuring that the transition to a clean, renewable-powered grid benefits Mainers.
We develop community-scale solar projects. Each has a footprint of <1 acre and powers 50 average Maine households.
Under cooperative ownership, we deliver energy savings to our members, improve reliability of the energy system, and provide community benefits for decades to come.
We purposefully choose to develop small projects that blend into the landscape and serve additional purposes beyond energy production, whether it’s growing, grazing, or providing pollinator habitat.
