Over 70% of Americans can't access solar. We're here to change that.
​​Renters, apartment dwellers, people with unsuitable roofs, and those without thousands to spend upfront have been left out of the clean energy transition. With solar panels that plug right into an outlet and can be placed anywhere, our nonprofit is breaking down the barriers that have kept solar exclusive.
Our Mission: Clean Energy for All
We're a nonprofit on a mission to accelerate the adoption of clean energy in the US through plug-in solar panels, a simple and affordable way for anyone to generate their own electricity. These systems aren't yet made at scale for the US, and that's why we exist. We're here to raise awareness, build demand, and work with manufacturers and policymakers to unlock widespread access.
What We Believe
The transition to clean energy must be for everyone, not just those who own homes, have perfect roofs, or can afford expensive systems. Our nonprofit is guided by three core values:
​
​
Access
Everyone deserves clean energy. Whether you rent, share a roof, or watch every dollar, solar should still be an option.
Affordability
Electricity bills aren't going down anytime soon, but yours can. Our plug-in panels help you save money while saving the planet.
Empowerment
Energy is power. Generating your own electricity is a step toward independence, resilience, and momentum for climate justice.
How it Works
We offer simple, plug-in solar systems that make it easy to be part of the climate solution. Our panels connect to a standard outlet, helping you lower your electricity bill and reduce your carbon footprint. We handle installation, you track your impact. Together, we're building a brighter, more sustainable future.
Affordable Solar for Underserved Communities
​Energy is a basic necessity, but for too many, especially low-income households and those shut out of solar, it's becoming a monthly burden. We believe clean energy shouldn't come with a premium price tag. That's why we created a special program to help underserved households access plug-in solar panels at a steep discount or even free. Fill out our application and we'll be in contact if you qualify. We're making it possible for everyone to cut their bills, not just the wealthy.
