A very innovative way to make it easy to put more solar on the grid is being pioneered by Tucson Electric Power (TEP) with The Bright Tucson Community Solar Program.
By buying $3 shares, individual utility customers can choose to own a portion of a 1.6 MW community solar project, a single-axis tracking PV array built at the future UA Science and Technology Park by a Tucson-based solar manufacturer and system developer, Solon. Renters as well as homeowners can participate.
