FAQ

Community Solar is a local energy option that makes solar power available to renters and homeowners with no up-front costs or expensive solar panels. Our community solar farms in Hamilton, NJ, generate power from the sun and feed it into the PSE&G utility grids.

It’s simple. Your PSE&G account will be linked to Modern Renewables. They’ll allocate a share of our solar energy to match your electricity usage. This generates solar credits on your utility bill, reducing the amount you owe PSE&G. Then, Modern Renewables will discount those credits by up to 21%.

Nope! Renters and homeowners alike have access to savings with our solar energy; and remember—there will be no disruption to your PSE&G service and no solar panels needed at your residence.

No solar panels are needed at your residence. Provide your PSE&G account number and we’ll take care of the rest.

No, it’s free to enroll and you can cancel with 30 days notice for any reason without fees. 

You’ll save up to 21% on your monthly electricity costs when you pay with a check, credit card or auto debit from your bank. Either way, your savings are guaranteed.

Nothing. PSE&G remains your utility provider. The only change you’ll notice is a lower PSE&G bill every month.

Yes, you’ll see a credit for renewable energy on your PSE&G bill. Every month you’ll receive a statement from Modern Renewables listing your discounted cost of electricity and how much money you’ve saved each month.

Your existing utility account number can be found on your utility bill or by signing into your utility account online.

No, we are a community solar developer, which is not the same as a third-party retail energy supplier. Instead, Modern Renewables provides solar electricity to PSE&G and you get a credit for the value of the solar electricity allocated to your utility account.

There is none. PSE&G will continue to be your electric company. You get a discount because our solar power is going into their grid. Sign up is easy—it’s free and takes minutes.
