Vote Solar

America's energy problems — from economic crisis to global climate change — will only be solved by a national transition to renewables. Clean, homegrown, reliable solar energy is ready to play a large part of the solution. It is the fastest growing energy source in the world, but we have still just scratched the surface of solar's vast energy potential. In order to bring the technology to scale, we need to bring down costs. Vote Solar works to build the economies of scale necessary to bring solar into the mainstream. We are a national nonprofit organization working to bring solar into the mainstream with grassroots action and technical expertise. We work at the state level to implement the policies and programs that build robust solar markets — and pave the way for a transition to a renewable energy economy.
