How Our Referral Program Works

As a community solar subscriber, you already made a great choice to support clean energy – and you’re helping New York meet its climate action goals.** You can do even more good by helping others plug into the benefits of community solar with our referral program.

Refer friends and family members to sign up for one of our community solar farms.

Provide them with the email address on your Nelnet Renewable Energy account, and make sure they include your email in the Promo Code field during sign-up.

Once you and the new subscriber begin receiving solar credits, you’ll each receive a $50 Amazon.com Gift Card.1*

*Restrictions apply, see Amazon.com/gc-legal.

There’s no limit to the number of friends and family members you can refer.

Not sure your friends and family understand how community solar works and why it benefits them? Read on for how to explain it.
