Local Green Saver

The Local Green Saver program has projects coming online over the next few years that you might be eligible for. These projects are designed to provide energy to customers near or within the same communities they are located.


Green Saver

      • The Green Saver program offers similar benefits to Local Green Saver. The primary difference is that Green Saver allows customers to enroll from outside of the community where the solar project is located.
      • This program is currently at capacity and is not accepting new applicants at this time. This is subject to change if space allows in the future.
