Connect More Communities to Clean Energy
- Community Solar reduces energy costs for more people in more places.
- Small and medium-sized businesses with limited rooftop space can capitalize on clean power. LMI (Low-to-middle income) communities, even renters who don't own their property, can practice sustainability first-hand and reduce their energy costs.
- How does it work? Subscribers pay a monthly fee to off-site ground-mounted solar farms or solar rooftops. In return, they receive electricity bill credits for their portion of the savings.

Designed for Higher Yields on Any Roof, Carport, or Terrain
- Choosing a site location is key to a successful project for investors or developers financing community solar projects. Don’t let high angle roofs, constrained site size, or uniquely shaped carports limit your project and site.
- Get maximized design flexibility with SolarEdge’s NEW TerraMax™ 330kW Inverter for ground mount systems, and Three Phase Inverters with Synergy Technology for rooftop and carport projects.
- SolarEdge inverter flexibility allows for the installation of more modules and higher energy output per module. The TerraMax Inverter is also designed to work on undulating land which minimizes the need to grade sloped land, reduces redevelopment costs, and helps you maximize profits.

Streamline Your O&M Practices
- SolarEdge's Monitoring Platform delivers high-visibility performance insights at the module and project levels. It provides fault-detection, alerting stakeholders for streamlined remote troubleshooting and easier Operations & Maintenance.
- Large-scale community projects can encompass thousands of modules. Granular monitoring is critical for sustaining high service quality and maintaining on-site assets.
SolarEdge was selected for its ability to overcome traditional challenges to community solar projects, including undulating ground, which can restrict module placement, and shading from nearby trees. SolarEdge Community Solar helps maximize energy yield and design flexibility, while reducing O&M costs.

Community Solar Subscriber Story
Professional glass blower from Foster, Rhode Island, Katie Corticelli, harnesses all the energy she needs at an affordable price through her local community solar program – powered by SolarEdge technology.
When we use SolarEdge solutions on our community solar sites, we're able to get more power out of our projects because each module is connected to an optimizer, which helps us with shading, module mismatch, and just regulates voltage across the board so we get a reliable energy source on our projects.
