Support a new clean energy project in Maryland!

MIT Climate Portal

Common Energy, an energy services company founded and led by MIT alumni, has been engaged to help subscribe a new solar energy project in the PEPCO service territory in Maryland (i.e., Montgomery and Prince George's Counties).

This project will generate 4 million kilowatt hours of clean energy, and prevent 3.2 million pounds of carbon emissions from entering the community each year.

There are two opportunities for the MIT community:
(1) Any person who pays PEPCO for their electricity can subscribe to the project, lower emissions, and receive a 10% discount on their electricity for up to twenty years. Please visit www.commonenergy.us to enroll.

(2) Common Energy is interested in engaging passionate MIT alumni or friends of alumni in Maryland to help spread us the word in the community. Interested parties please email hello@commonenergy.us

Thank you!
Richard ('97)
