Hi, .

When you subscribe to one of our Community Solar farms, you will enjoy several benefits and it’s important to us that you understand how the program works—and feel great about it!
Below are important program details and a savings estimate for your home.
How Community Solar Works
Clearway builds and operates solar farms in . Some solar farms are active, and others are in development and construction phases. Space is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Subscribers support 100% local, renewable energy without green power premiums or Retail Electric gimmicks. There is no rooftop installation, no enrollment fees, and there are never any maintenance fees.
In return for your subscription and support of locally produced renewable energy, you receive bill credits directly on your utility bill that reduce your electricity charges.
Clearway’s Customer Agreement includes convenient cancellation terms. Plus, customers who enroll through May 15, 2021 may cancel their contract any time without a fee. See details
The Community Solar Process & Savings Guarantee
Clearway Community Solar farms produce renewable solar electricity that goes to your local power grid. Polluted energy sources are replaced with clean ones.
Then, you receive solar bill credits automatically applied to your utility bill, reducing your costs. Because it pays to support renewable power.
You pay Clearway for the solar bill credits and receive a GUARANTEED discount every month.* Replace dirty power on the grid with clean power and pay less for the cost of the solar bill credits.
This means for every $1.00 you receive in solar bill credits that reduce your electric costs, you only pay Clearway .
Subscribers will remain a utility customer and responsible for the utility bill.

Environmental Impact

Planting 7.9 acres of forest in the U.S.
Offsetting greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to driving a car over 16,471 miles.
Switching 225 light bulbs to LEDs.
*Savings based on a guaranteed 20% discount on the value of the net metering credits generated by your allocation from the Community Solar system on the default supply service rate with the utility (ComEd or Ameren). Customers not on their utility default supply service rate may not receive the same savings or any savings. The impact of the solar bill credits on the utility charges can vary month to month due to seasonal variances affecting solar energy production. Actual savings may vary in the event the customer (i) cancels early, (ii) does not receive credits, or (iii) receives a reduced credit amount due to utility errors or delays. Clearway is not responsible for utility delays in applying solar bill credits. Refer to the community solar contract for agreement terms.

What’s in the Clearway Customer Agreement?
Here are the key facts you should know.
Clearway Promises
Clearway guarantees you will save 20% on the solar bill credits generated by your subscription so long as you are on the Default Supply Service Rate with your utility.
Clearway guarantees your discount rate of 20% is locked in for the 20-year term of the agreement.
Clearway guarantees that you have the option to cancel anytime. Terms and conditions will apply, including the notice period of 90 days. See Sections 3(a) through 3(g) for complete cancellation terms.
Clearway guarantees your cancellation fee has been waived for the full duration of your Clearway contract as part of this special limited-time promotion.*
Sign-Up for AutoPay and receive a $40 credit to your account after three consecutive months of automatic payments.
Customer Acknowledgments
If you receive electricity supply through a source other than your local utility, you’ll need to switch to your local utility Default Supply Service Rate by the time your Clearway Community Solar farm is placed in service to receive the 20% savings. If you elect to remain with, or later switch to an electricity supplier other than your local utility, you may still participate, but your savings are not guaranteed.
You will receive a Clearway invoice separately from your utility bill. Your energy supply will still come from your utility. The solar bill credits will apply directly to your utility bill, reducing the amount owed to your utility. You will receive a separate bill from Clearway for the cost of those solar bill credits, inclusive of your guaranteed discount.
The dollar amount of the solar bill credits you receive, as well as your payment to Clearway, will vary month to month based on the actual monthly production of the solar farm and based on any changes in the energy supply rate (your payment to Clearway will be based on the Default Supply Service Rate even if that is not your energy supply rate). Clearway will not provide advance notice of any such variances in solar production or the utility default supply rate.
Your cancellation fee has been waived for the full duration of your Clearway contract as part of this special promotion. This offer is only available for a limited time. Please be sure to take the next steps to complete your enrollment and secure your space on a Clearway Community Solar farm!
