As solar power continues to evolve and spread around the world, disadvantaged communities are benefiting from programs and initiatives geared toward sharing solar with the masses.

Below, Geneverse goes over a few ways that companies and organizations help communities in need.

Charitable Foundations

Charitable foundations such as the Kresge Foundation utilize strategies to help provide solar panels to community buildings, health centers, and schools.

Foundations play a critical role in bringing solar power to underserved communities. For instance, over 300 solar panels have been installed for the Hopi and Navajo Nations located in Arizona. This effort has also created jobs while providing reliable and renewable electricity.

Localized Clean Energy

Localized clean energy initiatives are helping to replace emissions that harm the environment and communities at large. Residents in areas of increased poverty are being empowered by reliable, renewable energy that comes at an affordable rate.

Solar farms are another resource rural communities are using to wean themselves off of fossil fuels. You might have come across a solar park, solar garden, or even a photovoltaic (PV) power station. Any large area of land that has solar panels that convert sunlight into electricity does so for the community, sending it to the local power grid or being shared by residents. 

Solar farms provide a reliable, renewable energy source. They also reduce gas emissions and help those who use it engage in an environmentally-friendly energy system.

Strategies for Getting Clean Energy to the Masses

The Clean Energy States Alliance conducted research funded by the U.S. Department of Energy that resulted in multiple models that foundations are currently using that helps support solar – even solar with battery storage for low- and moderate-income communities.

Tactics include cost-reduction strategies that come in the form of grants and donations of solar equipment such as solar panels. Other strategies include equity investments and guaranteed loans.
