1. Fill out our enrollment form
If you’re a CMP customer, you’re eligible – renters included! Complete our simple online application here. Versant customers can pre-register here.
2. Pay your membership deposit
Secure your spot with a $100 deposit, which is fully refundable if you move out of state or decide to leave the Cooperative. Income-eligible households can pay in installments: $10 upfront, then $10 per month added to your first nine discounted power bills once your solar field goes live.
3. Confirmation
If any details or materials are missing from your enrollment form, we’ll reach out to request them. Once everything is complete, you’ll immediately become a voting member of the Cooperative. Your savings and renewable energy impact will start as soon as your solar field goes live.
