It doesn’t matter if you own or rent.

As a Consumers Energy’s full-service* electric customer you’re eligible to subscribe to Solar Gardens.

When you subscribe to the program, you agree to pay a low monthly fee on your electric bill each month** and receive a monthly solar energy credit based on the amount of energy produced.

Should you change service locations after you’ve enrolled in the program, your subscription will move with you. Move out of our service territory, and you'll automatically be removed from the program without penalty.

There are several payment plans available to fit your lifestyle – and for as little as $8 per month, you can promote a cleaner Michigan for decades to come. For additional details see Program Terms and Conditions.

*Full-service electric customers are served on rates RS, RDP, RDPR, RT, GS, GSTU, GSD, GP, GPD, EIP and GPTU. To confirm your rate classification, please reference the back of your monthly bill under Rate Information.

**Customers who participate in the budget plan, winter protection plan, or shut-off protection plan will receive a second invoice for their participation rather than a consolidated electric bill.
