Solar for Schools CBS

The Solar for Schools Community Benefit Society Ltd (CBS) was set up in 2016. It aims to help schools across England Scotland, and Wales to get solar power without having to invest their capital in solar panels. Schools buy low-cost, zero carbon electricity and they share in the expected long-term surplus income generated by each solar project. The community of schools is governed by the schools with the solar PV. It allows schools to have hassle-free solar electricity without on-going costs of asset ownership.
