If you're a homeowner, we want to make it affordable and easy to go solar!
The 2022 Denver Solar Co-op has currently reached its capacity. Solar United Neighbors will work with our member-selected installers to assess if additional members can be added to this year’s program. Sign up for the waitlist and you will be notified if slots become available.
If you're a homeowner, Denver's Solar Co-Op is an affordable and easy way to go solar. Denver partners with Solar United Neighbors to help you get competitive pricing on solar panels. Take some time to research the rebate program.
Signing up isn't a binding commitment to go solar, however we ask that you're fairly certain you want to pursue a solar installation for your property. Solar United Neighborhoods will use the information you provide to pre-assess the suitability of solar for your site and to contact you about next steps for the solar co-op.
Join the Co-Op
Solar United Neighborhoods will communicate with you after you sign up for the co-op. This process will take a few months.
You might qualify for an $8,000 rebate or support for additional home energy improvements if your household makes less than 100% of area median income. To access the rebate program and other financing options, fill out our Denver Solar Co-Op Rebate Eligibility. Once the city verifies your eligibility, Solar United Neighbors will be notified and your rebate will be applied to your solar proposal.

What are your system attributes?
If you’re not interested in joining the Denver Solar Co-op and you already have a heat pump installed in your home, you can work with a registered contractor from our list to reserve a solar rebate through our Climate Action Rebate program. You can receive a rebate of $4,000 for your solar project. Additional funding is available if your household makes less than 80% of area median income.
Confirm that your installer is licensed with the City and County of Denver by checking their electrical license.
Community solar allows renters and shaded homes to participate in solar at no upfront costs. Community solar is shared solar. This means the solar can be located anywhere in the community – like a field, a building, or a parking lot – and be assigned to any Xcel Energy subscriber. Denverites can subscribe to local solar projects for a monthly fee. Once subscribed, customers begin receiving credits on their monthly utility bill that often result in a net bill savings for customers. Use Solar United Neighborhoods' vendor-neutral, educational tool to help you find community solar projects.
