Expected In-Service Date:  This column provides an estimate of when the array will start producing power.  It is not an exact date and many factors outside the control of the developer go into determining the exact date.

The next two columns provide information concerning the Subscriber Organization.

Subscriber Organization Number:  In order to develop a project in the Community Solar Pilot Program, a subscriber organization must apply for and receive a subscriber organization number from the Maryland Public Service Commission.  As such, the number is associated with the project developer and not with the individual project itself.
