Solar | Community project we're supporting

Partner: Alberta Winter Games

A legacy project of the Alberta Winter Games (2014), Bullfrog Power and Canadian Rockies Public Schools installed solar PV panels on the roof of the Banff Community High school–which is also Canada’s first LEED-certified school. The 10 kW project is also included in the school’s science curriculum to help teach students about the benefits of renewable energy.

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.
