Florida Keys Solar Co-op

The Florida Keys Solar Co-op has selected SALT Energy to install solar panels for the 46-member group. Co-op members selected SALT Energy through a competitive bidding process over 3 other firms. The group will hold digital information sessions to educate the community about solar and the co-op process. To register for any of these free webinars, please visit the Events tab of the co-op’s web page.

Co-op members selected SALT Energy for their competitive pricing, equipment offerings, and local experience.

The co-op is open to new members until January 8. Residents of the Florida Keys interested in joining the co-op can sign up at the co-op web page. The solar co-op is free to join and joining is not a commitment to purchase panels.

SALT Energy will provide each co-op member with an individualized proposal based on the group rate. By going solar as a group and choosing a single installer, members can save off the cost of going solar and have the support of fellow group members and solar experts at Solar United Neighbors.

The 31-member Florida Keys Solar Co-op issued a request for proposals (RFP) from area solar installers. The group members created the co-op to save money and make going solar easier, while building a network of solar supporters. The co-op is sponsored by: City of Layton; CLEO Institute; Lime Tree Bay Resort. The group also announced it will host information meetings to educate the community about solar and the co-op process. To learn details on when and where these meetings will occur, or to register for any of the free meetings, please visit the Events tab of the co-op’s web page.

Local installers interested in serving the group can download the RFP and response template.
Bids are due Wednesday, November 4 by 5:00 p.m.

The solar co-op is free to join and joining is not a commitment to purchase panels. Co-op members will select a single company to complete all of the installations. They will then have the option to purchase panels individually based on the installer’s group rate. By going solar as a group and choosing a single installer, members can save off the cost of going solar and have the support of fellow group members and solar experts at Solar United Neighbors. Residents of the Florida Keys interested in joining the co-op can sign up at the co-op web page.
