This is climate democracy in action.
A town in Alabama
Relies on 100% coal power
We work with the local government, community members, and non-profits to define, locate, and approve the right solutions.
The region is well suited for solar as an initial project to offset daytime carbon emissions. For this example, a non-profit has allowed us to use their land and roof for a solar field.

Assuming a purchase and installation, cost of $1.5 per watt of installed panels, the total cost of the project is $1 million.
60% of the project will be leveraged with a 30-year, 3.5% APR loan. This sets our crowdfunding target for this project at $400,000. This is where you get to own a piece of the project!
We've been approved to install solar on 30,000 square feet. That's about 582 kilowatts (KW) or 73 homes with high efficiency solar panels.

Market pricing
Currently, the average price of electricity in the state is 11.5¢ per kWh. In order to encourage the adoption of solar energy, we would sell the electricity produced for 85% of market value to a local energy supplier or consumer.

To profit
With these assumptions, you are expected to receive a 7% return on your initial investment every year.
If you invest $100, you would receive $7 in dividends each year. At this evaluation you would double your money in 14 years.
At this rate, the project will pay for itself in 7.7 years.
