Gwinnett Property Owners’ Final Opportunity to Go Solar via Group Buying Ends Dec. 31

LAWRENCEVILLE — Solarize Gwinnett – a community-based group-purchasing program for solar energy, battery storage and other clean-energy technologies – is offering final extended time for local property owners to sign up for a free evaluation of solar energy for their residences or businesses.

The campaign enrollment period will end Dec. 31, 2023. That will be the last day for enrollment in Solarize Gwinnett – a no-obligation opportunity to determine if solar energy is right for your property.

Importantly, those who enroll for free have additional time to decide whether to proceed with a contract, until Feb. 29, 2024.

The prior deadline was extended based on the Solarize Gwinnett Coalition’s desire to ensure there is adequate time for local property owners to sign up before year-end. The extra time also enables Gwinnettians to take advantage of new bonus packages from the campaign’s solar installer that encourage a clean energy lifestyle in Gwinnett.

In addition, a newly forged initiative to incorporate credits for companies to participate in equitable projects like Solarize Gwinnett led the Coalition to extend the deadline until Dec. 31.

LAWRENCEVILLE — Solarize Gwinnett, a community-based group-purchasing solar campaign, winds down this month, so the next three weeks are the final opportunity for homeowners, businesses and nonprofits in Gwinnett County to take advantage of reduced pricing and financial incentives offered via the campaign.

MARIETTA — The first local property owners to benefit from Solarize Cobb, a community-based group-purchasing solar campaign, will soon own renewable energy systems to power their Cobb residences.

OKLAHOMA CITY–The Solarize OKC coalition and EightTwenty invite the public to a celebration of the nation’s third largest “Solarize” community-based group-purchasing campaign with a workday and community benefit project showcase on Saturday, Oct. 14 at RestoreOKC,2222 NE 27th St, Oklahoma City, OK 73111.
