6 FAQs about [Community Photovoltaic Concept Board]

Are community-owned solar PV projects self-sustaining?

This paper presents a novel model for the operation of community-owned solar PV in the UK which makes these projects self-sustaining. This model enables community and citizen investors to be involved in the generation of RE and grid balancing services even when grants and subsidies are not available.

Can a new solar business model improve community-owned solar projects?

The proposed new business model aims to improve the financial robustness of an existing community-owned solar project by adding electricity storage.

Is there a model for community solar?

There is no absolute model when it comes to community solar, but certain models do better to serve owners, subscribers, and the community. In puzzle form, Fig. 9 delineates the intricate web of players and technologies that interface to make community solar a reality.

What is community PV & how does it work?

As a communally owned resource, community PV opens exciting new avenues to apportion and lower initial investments in solar technology, tap into sources of funding not available to individuals, and generally lower electricity rates.

Is community solar a good option?

Community solar can be a great option for people who are unable to install solar panels on their roofs because they are renters, can’t afford solar, or because their roofs or electrical systems aren’t suited to solar. Community solar is rapidly growing across the country.

What is community solar?

The U.S. Department of Energy defines community solar as any solar project or purchasing program, within a geographic area, in which the benefits flow to multiple customers such as individuals, businesses, nonprofits, and other groups. In most cases, customers benefit from energy generated by solar panels at an off-site array.
