en.Wedoany.com Reported - Trinity Services has partnered with Common Energy to advance five community solar projects in the Chicago metropolitan area.

New York-based Common Energy, a renewable energy advisor and utility company, is currently developing over 950 megawatts of community solar projects. Under the latest agreement, more than 120 sites under Trinity Services will subscribe to Common Energy's Chicago projects, receiving monthly electricity bill credits. The organization's residential units will save 20% of the credit value over 20 years. Bob Taylor, Chief Financial Officer of Trinity Services, stated that these savings are significant for supporting the people who rely on the organization, and community solar helps reduce operating costs over decades while benefiting the environment and the community.

According to reports, Trinity Services currently serves over 6,800 adults and children with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Illinois, aiming to help them thrive and lead fulfilling lives. The nonprofit believes these community solar projects will greatly advance this mission. A representative from Common Energy noted that the five projects have a total installed capacity of approximately 16 megawatts, generating about 20.7 gigawatt-hours of renewable energy annually, avoiding over 563 million pounds of carbon emissions over the project lifecycle. Richard Keiser, CEO of Common Energy, stated that the partnership with Trinity Services leverages savings from community solar to support and expand disability services in Illinois.

As of June 2026, Common Energy serves approximately 1 gigawatt of community solar projects nationwide.
