Island Community Solar was founded by six Whidbey residents with decades of experience and a contagious enthusiasm for solar energy and renewal energy production. In 2010 they formed an LLC for the explicit purpose of promoting such a local, grass roots renewable energy plan.
ICS has qualified for a rural energy grant from the federal government (REAP), Washington State renewable energy production incentives and a clean energy grant from Puget Sound Energy. They have formed partnerships with the Coupeville Port District and The Green Bank Farm to make their dream a reality.
