Partner: Children First Society of Inuvik

Two hundred kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, the largest daycare in the Northwest Territories is working to build a 15 kW solar array to power its building with green energy. The Children First Centre, run by the Children First Society of Inuvik, provides care to up to 126 children in a 13,000 sq. ft. facility. Bullfrog is providing financial support to construct the installation, which is expected to be completed in 2017.

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.
