OurSolar is a community solar program from PPEC that allows members to subscribe to solar panels at our community solar fields. Members can subscribe to up to 10 panels, and the energy produced by those panels is calculated into your monthly bill.

OurSolar represents PPEC’s balanced approach to energy production and support for economically viable sources of renewable energy. It provides members with an easy way to include renewable energy in their overall mix without the cost and maintenance of installing rooftop solar panels.

With the OurSolar program, all of the costs, including maintenance, are rolled into the per-panel monthly subscription fee. That’s it. We install it. We maintain it. And the power produced from your subscribed panels goes into your monthly bill.

We don’t think renewable energy should be a luxury or a hassle. Instead, it should be affordable to everyone and able to benefit everyone. That’s why we’re taking on this effort together — as a cooperative.

SAVE ON YOUR ELECTRIC BILL!

We believe that renewable energy should be within anyone’s reach, no matter their income. With our recent rate adjustments, OurSolar can actually save on your utility bill. Members can currently see, on average, a $5 saving per month with a 10-panel subscription. The savings are reflected as a credit on your bill based on the amount of power generated from your share of panels each month. It doesn’t get much easier than that.

WHERE IS IT INSTALLED?

PPEC’s OurSolar array is located north of Paulding on Gasser Road. Other OurSolar arrays are located across Ohio, including our utility-scale array in Findlay.
