How Community Solar Works
So, if you aim for genuine change beyond symbolic gestures, let’s make it happen.
Let’s solar!
From start to finish, you, your community, and the planet come out ahead.
How solar advantages work for you, your community, and nature.
Nautilus Solar Energy® has a deep commitment to our customers, their communities, and the planet. So, we use our extensive experience and expertise to create efficient, sustainable solar farms with benefits that go beyond electric power.
How a solar farm becomes a reality.
Step 1
We receive upfront tax incentives for building solar farms and adding clean energy to the grid.
Step 2
We find unusable land or unneeded land for our sites.
Step 3
Landowners receive a new income stream, which can often lead to tax relief too.
Step 4
Any local community solar subscriber, including the underserved, can become a subscriber and receive lower-cost electricity and promote clean energy.
Step 5
Solar farms are built and begin operating creating new jobs for the local community.
Step 6
Solar farms feed power into the local grid, reducing the reliance on the need for coal or gas power plants to produce electricity.
Step 7
Subscribers receive solar credits that give them discounts on their electricity bills.
Step 8
Local communities gain new tax incentives, a more resilient grid, a healthier environment, and greater energy independence.
Step 9
The planet doesn't suffer from thousands of pounds of CO2 entering the atmosphere as reliance on burning fossil fuels is reduced.

How Community Solar Works?
Wait. I can get the benefits of solar without panels on my roof?
1. Solar Farms Built Close to You
These aren’t far-off operations. As a community solar developer, we build and operate solar farms centrally located within your region.
2. A Community of Subscribers
Residents like you subscribe for free to take advantage of the solar farm’s energy output. No ownership, just service.
3. Integration with Existing Power Grid
This locally-generated solar energy is integrated into your regular electric grid. No new infrastructures, no disruptions.
4. Unchanged Power Flow, Added Benefits
Your electricity is delivered using the same power lines, so it remains uninterrupted. The difference? You’re part of an energy company with a larger, clean and green initiative. Plus, you enjoy a minimum of 10% savings on your monthly electric bills. No panels, no fuss—just collective progress.
How do Nautilus Solar subscriptions work?
In addition to Nautilus Solar, you will remain a customer of your current utility. And as a subscriber, you’ll get access to the energy we produce for less.
