Each Community Solar subscriber receives a portion of the savings generated by their local project. Once the projects start to generate energy, you will start to see those savings reflected on your Arcadia statement.
Your portion of the solar savings will be applied to your local utility bill and you will see a reduction in your overall utility charges. When your Arcadia statement is calculated, 5%* of those solar savings are credited to your overall utility charges.
The remaining solar savings are allocated towards maintaining and operating the local solar project.
For your reference, we’ve put together a few example statements from participating utilities with active projects so you can see how your savings will apply:
