Montgomery County wants to help residents go solar.
The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is encouraging residents to sign up for the Capital Area Solar Switch program. The initiative offers a group buying model for homes looking to save money and switch to clean energy.
“Through important initiatives like the Capital Area Solar Switch, energy efficient actions are more attainable than ever,” said County Executive Marc Elrich. “Through the power of group buying, the opportunity to install solar panels and electric vehicle charging stations at home is now more affordable.”
The program received nearly 2,000 registrations during its first promotion in summer 2023, the county said.
Interested residents should register for free before May 8. Learn more here.
