Example only. Income-qualified households save 25% ($40 on this bill). Your numbers follow your usage. Everything stays on one Potomac Edison bill.
Also the Potomac Edison parts of Carroll, Howard and Montgomery counties. The Finder checks your utility first, so if Potomac Edison is not who bills you, it says so before anything else.
The Finder asks one question to tell the tiers apart. If your household takes part in one of Maryland’s assistance programs, or your income is under the state limit for your household size, you get the 25% tier.
Maryland’s income-qualified limit is 80% of the state median income. If your household is under the figure for its size, you get the 25% tier.

A second farm serves income-qualified households. Spots are limited by the size of each farm, so enrollment is first come, first served.

This page is published by JoinCommunity.Solar for Potomac Edison customers in Maryland. It is not a Potomac Edison program and is not a government program. Potomac Edison is a trademark of its owner and is named here only to identify the utility territory. Community solar availability depends on how much room the farm has left. Savings are estimates and vary with your usage and the farm’s output: the discount applies to the value of the community solar credits on your bill, which is 10% for standard subscriptions and 25% for income-qualified subscriptions.
Enrollment is handled by Our Power Co. (T/A My Utility Advisor), a community solar subscriber organization licensed by the Maryland Public Service Commission, Subscription Coordinator No. 23D3065350006676.
