Share the news!
Even if your home is not a good fit for solar panels, you probably know some homeowners who’ve been curious about solar and would welcome an invitation to join one of these open groups this summer, before the SUN coops close and before solar panels get more expensive (as expected for projects that won’t be underway before the end of the year).
You can invite your congregation to distribute paper bulletin inserts or digital copies to share the solar invitation with your members.
We have inserts available for: Montgomery, Frederick, and Harford counties (and can make others! Email solar@ipldmv.org).
Community Solar
Even if you can’t put solar panels on your own home, anyone who pays an energy bill to BGE, Pepco MD, Pepco DC, or Potomac Edison can subscribe to a Neighborhood Sun* community solar project nearby.
With Neighborhood Sun, you’ll:
- Lock in a stable rate for your electricity.
- Be a member of a strong community of local solar supporters caring for our common home.
*A donation will be made to support our work for each person who signs up for this program.
