Background
Oregon Shines (https://www.oregonshines.com/) is hiring canvassers in the Portland area to sign up residential customers for Community Solar projects. What is community solar and what does this mean? (and no - we are not selling rooftop solar. This is completely different!)
Oregon has recently rolled out a community solar program: https://www.oregoncsp.org/.
In short, this program allows residents in Pacific Power (PAC) and Portland General Electric (PGE) territories the option to purchase their electricity from a local, clean, solar energy system and our company offers this electricity at a 5% discount. There's no cost to sign up, no hidden fees/catch, and a guaranteed savings. When a customer signs up for a community solar project, they will still get a utility bill from their utility provider just as they always do, but the utility bill will reflect that they have signed up for a community solar project and the savings will be automatically processed on their utility bill.
