Benefits of
Community Solar Farms

Community solar projects offer a unique alternative to traditional solar setups. Unlike the solar panels you may be used to seeing on your neighborsโ€™ rooftops, or the massive arrays used by utility companies, community solar arrays fall somewhere in between in terms of size. These projects enable local community members to subscribe to electricity generated by the array. In return for their subscription, participants receive credits on their electricity bills which translates to savings while supporting the adoption of clean energy.

Ways Community Solar Power
Helps Your Community

Community solar projects are more than just a source of clean energyโ€”they’re catalysts for positive change in your community. Here are the wide-ranging benefits of community solar power.

  • Energy cost savings and affordability: Subscribers on average may save 10% on their electricity bills, enhancing affordability for all, including low-income households.
  • Energy independence and grid resilience: Local energy production stabilizes prices, reduces dependence on foreign energy sources, and bolsters grid stability.
  • Better energy accessibility: Community solar allows renters and those unable to install rooftop panels to access solar benefits, promoting energy equity.
  • Chaberton Cares program: We reinvest in communities through our Chaberton Cares initiative, supporting local charities and causes.
  • Agricultural benefits: Our solar farm projects include the construction of pollinator habitats and other initiatives which improve the entire local ecosystem.
  • Strengthened local energy infrastructure and job creation: Community solar projects modernize the local grid and create diverse local job opportunities, stimulating economic growth.
  • Environmental and health benefits: By reducing carbon emissions and reliance on fossil fuels, community solar combats climate change and improves air quality, leading to better health outcomes.

Chaberton Cares

At Chaberton Energy, we believe in going above and beyond. In addition to developing clean energy projects, we’re committed to nurturing the communities we serve through our Chaberton Cares program. For every megawatt of new community solar capacity we develop, we allocate $5,000 in funding to support local nonprofit organizations. 

We work closely with our project landowners to identify causes and community organizations that matter most to them, ensuring our support aligns with local needs and values. Our involvement begins early in the project development process and continues long after the solar panels are operational. Beyond financial contributions, our team members actively support these local causes through volunteering. Chaberton Cares is our way of integrating into the fabric of the communities we serve, fostering positive change that extends far beyond renewable energy.
