This screenshot from a Warwick resident’s O&R bill shows the discount she received for her community solar subscription in January 2025. (“CDG” stands for “Community Distributed Generation,” which is industry-speak for “community solar.”) The red arrow points out she had no credits going into January, an indication that most likely her annual allocation was too small.

If she had a full allocation, her savings would have been twice as much. ( Image provided) Community solar In the past, Sustainable Warwick has encouraged local residents and businesses to sign up for community solar. If you don’t...
