Partners: City of Vancouver, Solar Now

In partnership with the City of Vancouver and Solar Now, Bullfrog Power participated in the launch of a 16.6 kW solar rooftop on the Vancouver Public Library, an educational city landmark visited nearly 6.5 million times in 2017. The project coincides with a building expansion which includes a new, 8,000-square-foot public rooftop garden.

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.
