On the roof of Gulf Island Secondary School in B.C., renewable energy is helping power the education of future sustainability leaders. An 84-panel solar system was installed on the public school’s roof by Salt Spring Community Energy Group—with support from Bullfrog Power and additional partners. All revenue generated by the project contributes to an annual scholarship for students pursuing sustainable trades or studies.
