Topics: Community Solar has taken on many incarnations of late, and goes by many names. Rather than trying to narrow the definition, it may be better to characterize community solar as a concept that helps to bring innovation to how people and entities can take advantage of the solar revolution, even if individually, they do not have the financial profile or direct access to advantageous solar resources. In this solar salon we will hear how three organizations have are helping to bring the advantages of solar energy non-profit entities, communities, coops and condos.
