“Public Storage and Solar Landscape Announce Multi-state Community Solar Portfolio”

A project that transforms facilities in lower-income neighborhoods into hubs of affordable renewable energy.

Using rooftop solar installations, these projects will provide discounted, renewable energy to more than 10,000 low-income Homes, saving residents millions of dollars per year on electricity costs, and making a real difference where it matters most — in the lives of local families.

This initiative represents one of the largest community solar portfolios in the U.S. and we’re proud to be able to showcase our commitment to our communities, and our planet, in such a major way.
