Partner: Kitasoo/Xai’Xais First Nation

The Kitasoo/Xai’Xais First Nation in B.C. aims to be energy independent by building renewable energy sources to help power its community. To start, the Kitasoo/Xai’Xais First Nation developed a 23 kW solar roof installation on its Kitasoo Community School—in partnership with Bullfrog. Thanks to support from Bullfrog customers, the power generated by the project will help the community produce clean electricity and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels.

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.
