Partner: Hamlet of Arviat

The Hamlet of Arviat, located on the western shore of the Hudson Bay, hopes to be the first Hamlet in Canada to launch a green energy project. The community has experienced firsthand the effects of climate change: polar bears—foraging for food—have appeared on their streets! To help reduce their emissions and secure their energy independence, the people of Arviat are launching a solar project on a community centre with help from the Bullfrog Power community.

About our community projects

Activists and organizers across the country are working to transition their communities away from fossil fuels. We created our community-based green energy projects grant to provide critical funding for these local efforts.

All bullfrogpowered customers help fund these small-scale, community-led projects, including solar panels on schools and in Indigenous communities, education and training programs, and a cleantech accelerator.
