Make the Solar Switch

Earn Energy From the Sun!

Join Solar Switch, formerly the Capital Area Solar Co-op, to learn about options for installing a solar energy system on the rooftop or your home or small business. Financing for all incomes is available. Electric vehicle chargers are also offered in this group-driven, cooperative purchase discount program.

The Solar Switch co-op will be open for applications from Monday, May 15-Thursday, Aug. 31. Online information sessions will be held monthly. Learn how to register and find more information beginning in May at www.solarunitedneighbors.org/maryland.

Don’t own a roof — or have one that is shaded? Consider joining a community solar project. Learn how and find more about Rockville’s efforts to go solar at www.rockvillemd.gov/solar.
