What Is Community Solar?

A Solar Subscription
For CMP Customers

Solar Gardens by Syncarpha has been transforming the way communities access clean energy since 2009. 

With our community solar program, homeowners, renters, and businesses receiving electricity from CMP can subscribe to our off-site solar projects and reserve a portion of the project’s energy output.

At no upfront, you can save on your energy bills and contribute to a greener future—all without installing solar panels on your roof.

Solar Gardens sends its solar energy directly to the power grid, and then CMP credits your electric bill directly.

Moves happen – we get that. While our agreements will differ by State and Program, in all cases, we provide flexibility for customers who need to move. If you move locally, your subscription and savings move with you! If you’re moving outside the service area and need to switch utility providers, you can transfer your credits to someone else or cancel the agreement at no cost with a timely notice outlined in your signed agreement.
