Edmonds, WA Solar Cooperative Installs First Round

Congrats to the Edmonds Solar Cooperative!  $40,000 was raised from local utility customers in $1,000 "slices"  to install the 4.2 kW array.  These solar shares have a ten-year pay back.  A small step to install this first array, but one giant leap forward for community solar.

A similar cooperative is taking shape in Colorado!  If cooperative model can scale, it will be a viable subscriber organization for solar gardens.
