Energy News Network highlights Solstice as a community solar provider using AI and machine learning to transform community solar services. 38 Degrees North Director of Asset Management, Samuel Van Dam, joined the conversation to share their experience with customer churn stating that AI is “a fantastic idea," noting that “There’s a lot to getting everyone signed up and making sure they keep paying their bills if they are replaced. When they have to be replaced, that potentially costs money and potentially results in lost revenue. Avoiding that is the preferred approach.” Predicting subscriber churn, implementing customer intervention on high-risk accounts, and enhancing overall equity - Solstice is changing the way community solar subscriptions are managed, for the better. Discover how innovative tools are changing the game.

About us
The age of solar has arrived. With prices falling by 80% in less than a decade, solar power is now within reach of every American household. Here’s the problem: 90 million American households are currently locked out of the solar marketplace. Maybe it’s because they rent their homes. Or other solar companies are not willing to sell to them. Or simply because their roof is in the shade or is not well-suited to a solar array. Our mission is to unlock the possibility of solar power for these households. With the help of transformative policies taking root in the United States, we are now in a position to do so. It's called "community solar." What it means is that a household can buy solar power without having an array installed on its roof. Here's what we noticed: in communities all across the country, there are extraordinary organizations -- from the church down the street to the college campus across town -- that are embracing clean energy and want to bring it to their constituents. There are also households that want to go solar but do not have an easy way to do so. Finally, there are solar companies eager to find more customers. Our goal as Solstice is to use community solar to help these groups meet one another. When we do, everybody wins: those who cannot currently access solar are brought into the market, more solar is deployed, and everyone saves on their electricity bills.

A few times a year, the Solstice team comes together in person to connect, strategize, and align on our goals for the months ahead. One of the highlights of these gatherings is the opportunity to volunteer with other community-focused organizations, reinforcing our commitment to the communities we serve. Thank you, Cocotree, for joining us and showing the true power of community-focused efforts!
Last week, we were honored to be part of the Solstice Strategic Planning Retreat held at the Verve in Natick! 40 Solstice employees gathered to fold 1,365 pairs of underwear for 195 children as part of their volunteer event. Thank you, Solstice! If your company is looking to host a volunteer event for its employees, please reach out to laura@cocotreekids.org. #corporatevolunteering #corporatephilanthropy #metrowestmanonprofit #corporatecitizenship #bostonnonprofit
