Neighborhood Sun’s commitment to providing accessible and affordable clean energy solutions goes beyond just offering a service– we are also working to build a sense of community around the values we all share. Even though Neighborhood Sun has expanded to 6 other states since beginning our journey in Maryland, we owe it all to the early success and continued support of our Maryland solar community. As we continue to grow, we are determined to stay true to our roots and support the Marylanders in our neighborhood and surrounding communities who have made it all possible. Keep reading to see what a few of our Maryland subscribers have to say about their experience with Neighborhood Sun.
“Community solar will be a game changer in Maryland, finally opening up access to local clean energy for a lot more people. I’m excited to see a local, homegrown company like Neighborhood Sun lead the charge.”
– Mike Tidwell, Founder & Director of Chesapeake Climate Action Network (subscriber since 2022)
Mike is not your average subscriber because he also happens to be the director of an incredible non-profit based in Maryland that is dedicated to passing policies to address climate change and reduce our dependency on fossil fuels. Chesapeake Climate Action Network (CCAN) is one of Neighborhood Sun’s oldest community partners, and we have donated nearly $14,000 over the years to support its important mission. Our team members also participate in CCAN’s annual polar plunge to fundraise for the organization (and they have lots of fun doing it!).
“THE BEST. Local company that genuinely cares about the environment. Not to mention it’s a no brainer to save a little cash too! As a manager in the customer service industry for 5+ years, I was so impressed with their customer service and hospitality. Every time I get my bill I feel proud to not only partner with a company with good morals, but also I feel like I’m doing my part in protecting our planet!”
– Jacob S. (subscriber since 2022)
Our team is dedicated to offering the best support possible to our subscribers. One of our core values “Remember, we’re all in this together” is meant to serve as a reminder that we exist as a company to serve people, not panels. As such, we strive to center humanity at the heart of every interaction, whether it be with a fellow team member, a subscriber, or any kind of stakeholder. Each member of our team is passionate about addressing climate change and treating people with care, kindness, and respect as we make clean, affordable energy accessible to all– not just the select few.
“Renewable is doable. Glad Neighborhood Sun is making community solar accessible to low-income communities.”
-Laurel P. (subscriber since 2021)
Laurel is not only a loyal subscriber but also an investor in Neighborhood Sun. Her support has been invaluable, and we have also learned a lot from her. Laurel applies her skills as a writer and educator to advocate for ethical practices in the solar industry and inform people of the risks of predatory third-party energy practices. As a dedicated and experienced solar advocate and local Marylander, she is able to offer a uniquely informed perspective on the benefits of community solar.
“Excellent team and such an easy way to save on your energy bill while at the same time getting your power from the sun. No investment in home equipment, no installation on your home and very low risk. I am not sure why everyone hasn’t jumped on this incredible opportunity.”
Like Peter says, this “incredible opportunity” makes it possible for anyone who pays an electricity bill to access solar savings and support the generation of clean energy in their very own community. Gone are the days when solar energy was only accessible to those who could afford to pay thousands of dollars to install their own rooftop system and wait years to recoup the upfront costs.
“I live in a condo building with roofs that can’t host solar panels, but I can still get 100% of my electricity from a nearby solar farm. I’m so grateful to Neighborhood Sun for giving me the opportunity to reduce my GHG emissions and contribute to the growing solar industry in MD!”
Eric M. (subscriber since 2021)
Community solar is key to breaking down the barriers that prevent people like Eric from choosing renewables over fossil fuels. Many of our subscribers live in apartments or condos where they would be unable to install their own panels or shady areas that don’t get enough sun. These subscribers always express their satisfaction with finally finding a clean energy solution that meets their needs.
