Orange County Citizens Foundation Community Solar Array

Join the Citizens Foundation and SunCommon in growing solar in the Hudson Valley.

The Orange County Citizens Foundation’s mission of improving the lives of Orange County’s citizens fits right in with our thinking at SunCommon. We believe that everyone has the right to a healthy environment and brighter future – and renewable energy is where it starts.

The new community solar array at the Citizens Foundation homestead in Chester will help approximately 60 homes to go solar. If Orange & Rockland is your utility company and you want to go solar but not at your home, then CSA is the perfect solution for you.

**As a Community Solar Member, you can save up to 30%* off your electric bill for the next 25 years! Sign up to learn more and see what you could save.**

Community Solar Arrays (CSAs) are your local solar farm co-op. When you buy into the CSA, you have all the benefits of owning a solar array for your home without installing anything on your roof.

*Savings based on a 3% annual utility rate escalation over 25 years.

Grow Solar with the Citizens Foundation and SunCommon

As if clean energy isn’t enough, the Citizens Foundation solar array does even more good for the community. The array will also host wildflower plantings that support our ever-important pollinator friends.Citizens Foundation members and the public alike can enjoy the flowers and bask in clean energy production by walking on the path around the array.

Get Started

We, at the Citizens Foundation, have made a commitment to clean, affordable energy for our residents, businesses, and our own organization. We’ve asked SunCommon to build this community solar array on our property in Sugar Loaf to provide citizens with solar power without having to install it on their own. NY State has set a goal to have 50% of our energy come from renewable sources by 2030. We take that seriously and we’re proud to do our part to help that become a reality in Orange County. Please join us!
