The Affordable, Clean Energy Future is For Everyone. No Exceptions.
Empower Solar is Protecting Consumers in the DMV
Making Solar Power Accessible for All
First and foremost, going solar helps area residents stay in their homes by lowering the cost of living in an expensive city. Other benefits include energy independence, economic growth, improved air quality, a reduction of environmental harms, and an overall enhancement of quality of life for communities. However, for everyone to benefit, we must work together to improve the solar market and protect consumers.
Education
Many homeowners are unaware of the cost, benefits, and feasibility of solar power – or wary of overly aggressive and deceptive salespeople. Empower Solar provides up-to-date, reliable information on how to go solar without getting scammed.
Outreach
Trusted relationships are the foundation for any emerging market. The Empower Solar Coalition’s members have deep roots in the community and collaborate with other trusted local partners to ensure clean, affordable solar is accessible to all local residents – in every corner of the DMV.
Advocacy
A thriving solar market relies on policies that promote accountability and transparency among all industry players, while incentivizing market growth. Empower Solar is a collective voice for these policy objectives, so residents and small businesses don’t have to carry the burden themselves.
