We hope everyone had a restful and joyful holiday weekend! We’re excited to share some highlights from our US team this past quarter.
1. Allume Will Serve as a Project Pipeline Partner Florida’s $156M Winning Solar for All Coalition
Allume is honored to serve as a project pipeline partner for the winning Solar for All Coalition in Florida. In April, Solar Energy Loan Fund (SELF), Solar United Neighbors, and The Nature Conservancy announced that they are recipients of $156 million from the EPA’s Solar for All federal funding.
Together, they will develop initiatives that will enable thousands of low-income Floridians to access affordable solar energy. With our expertise in multifamily solar, Allume will provide a pipeline of multifamily solar projects to benefit low-income residents in the Sunshine State.
In the words of Erin Autin, Regional Engagement Director at SELF:
“Multifamily buildings are an untapped market that represent an opportunity to accelerate the clean energy transition. With Solar for All Funding, SELF and partners like Allume will help bridge the gap for renters, overcoming financial and logistical barriers, and allowing them to participate in the clean energy economy while reducing energy burdens.”
With behind-the-meter solutions like SolShare, low-income residents in multifamily buildings can directly consume rooftop solar for the first time, resulting in an average of 30-50% lower utility bills. We look forward to further breaking down barriers to solar for multifamily residents and ensuring the benefits of solar reach every community in Florida.
See a snippet of a talk we gave about the need and potential for multifamily solar energy to SELF’s stakeholders in Florida.
