SRP Solar for Nonprofits™

Help local nonprofits save on power so they can invest more in the community.

Help nonprofits go solar

For as little as $3 a month or a one-time donation, you can help Valley nonprofits put money back into the community. Your donation covers the construction of solar-covered parking structures, enabling these organizations to utilize renewable energy while reducing their electricity expenses. That means instead of putting their dollars toward energy costs, they can dedicate them to initiatives you really care about. The SRP Solar for Nonprofits program has saved recipient organizations more than $1.2 million to date.*

*The number is an estimated value generated from a 1.6 MWh/kW performance metric and 8.1c/kWh blended commercial rate.
