Mission

SolSolution is a nonprofit corporation whose mission is to simultaneously generate clean, renewable electricity and increase the quality of education in underprivileged schools.

What We Do

SolSolution puts solar panels on schools and then reinvests what would normally be profit into low-income schools.

SolSolution is a nonprofit social enterprise whose mission is to simultaneously generate clean, renewable electricity and increase the quality of education in underprivileged schools.  We adapt the proven, for-profit, solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) model and transform it to make SolSolution a high impact, self-sustaining nonprofit.  SolSolution reinvests its net income into the educational budgets of low-income schools through its Solar Powered Schools Granting Program and Educational Programs focused on solar, STEM, and green-entrepreneurship education.

Our partner schools are able to easily and cost-effectively adopt solar power, which de-risks and simplifies their operations budgeting for decades. With zero upfront or O&M costs, our partner schools reduce their electricity bills, hedge against rising electricity prices, and protect themselves from the volatile electricity market.

As a nonprofit, SolSolution has unique access to a wider spectrum of low-cost capital sources, which gives us a significant competitive advantage in the market place. SolSolution aims to be the “go-to” solar power provider for k-12 schools across the U.S. Our vision is to install 1GW of solar generating capacity by 2020, and shift $100Ms to educational budgets in low-income schools.
