Partner: Solar Now

A close neighbour of Vancouver’s Science World, Creekside Paddling Centre is now home to a 15 kW solar array installed atop the Centre’s six boat sheds. Completed in June 2017, the installation on the community-run Centre will serve as a demonstration of how solar roofs can help meet the power needs of single-family homes in B.C. Bullfrog contributed support necessary to launch the solar project.

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.
