Harness The Power Of The Sun More Accessible (& Less Costly) Than You Think!
What is Community Solar?
Image
COMMUNITY SOLAR is available to residential co-op members just like you!
The subscription-based program allows homeowners or renters to subscribe to solar shares at $4 PER SHARE — equivalent to 125 kWh or two solar panels.
By participating in COMMUNITY SOLAR, you, our electric co-op member, are literally harnessing the power of the sun!
There is no change to your electric service — you’ll use electricity just as you do now. The only difference is that the energy generated on your behalf will be 100% RENEWABLE ENERGY.
As a SOLAR SUBSCRIBER, you’ll receive an adjustment on your bill for electricity generated based on the number of shares purchased.
Those adjustments reflect the performance of your subscribed number of solar shares and are based on the amount of power generated by JOHNSON CORNER SOLAR and the market revenue from the power sold into the energy market each month.

JOHNSON CORNER SOLAR IS A 20 MW FACILITY located two miles from Johnson City, Kansas.
It is about 2,000 times larger than a typical residential rooftop solar installation.
The utility-scale size of Johnson Corner Solar provides a significantly lower price for solar energy compared to rooftop installations.
COMMUNITY SOLAR systems have the advantage of economies of scale — meaning costs decrease as the size of the system increases and can be spread out amongst many participants.
And that means more solar savings than your average rooftop installation!
