Making solar more affordable

Free, Expert-Level Solar Installation Training Available

Person working on a solar panel Making solar more affordable - 350 Contra Costa Action

Using free energy from the sun to power our homes is clearly a fine idea—but installing a rooftop solar system can be expensive. SunWork, a nonprofit working in the Bay Area and along the Central Coast, aims to make solar energy more affordable and widespread with the help of trained volunteers.

SunWork helps homeowners whose utility bills aren’t high enough to make the cost of solar installation make sense otherwise. They also help small nonprofits like churches make the switch to solar.

SunWork volunteers receive free, expert-level training in all aspects of solar installation. Do you know someone who might benefit from learning these skills? To find out more, visit SunWork.org.
