Solar Simplified Pioneers Free LMI Subscriber Acquisition for New York Community Solar

In a pivotal move to foster the growth of Community Solar in New York, Solar Simplified pledges to acquire Low and Moderate Income (LMI) subscribers for Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and Community Solar asset owners at zero cost. This initiative supports New York's equitable clean energy transition by aligning with the Community Adder and Inclusive Community Solar Adder (ICSA) programs.

Solar Simplified commits to absorbing all costs associated with acquiring the required 40% LMI subscriber quota for the Community Adder, providing a significant incentive for these projects. Additionally, the ICSA program support is extended by offering complimentary subscriber acquisition and no additional fees for ongoing management.

Aviv Shalgi, CEO of Solar Simplified, emphasizes the company's dedication to advancing clean energy in New York. The initiative is expected to alleviate financial pressures on partners, making Community Solar projects more feasible and expediting their development. Solar Simplified's strategy aims to democratize the benefits of renewable energy, ensuring equitable distribution across communities.

This initiative by Solar Simplified not only supports the economic viability of Community Solar projects seeking to achieve their Permission To Operate (PTO) but also mirrors the company's innovative approach to reducing costs and fostering the sector's sustainable growth. Community Solar developers and asset owners are encouraged to engage with Solar Simplified to explore this offering and further opportunities in New York's renewable energy landscape.
