We can't ignore the environmental challenges that put orcas at risk. That's why OrcaLab made history by becoming the first orca research facility in Canada to be solar powered.

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.
