How is My Bill Calculated with Community Solar in Maryland?

Each Community Solar subscriber receives 5% 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 Power 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.
