CollectiveSun:

The easiest, most cost effective way to finance your solar system

Since 2011, CollectiveSun has been helping nonprofits and tax exempt organizations fund solar projects. Our team of experts understands the financing challenges you face, so we’ve designed our proprietary funding models to minimize the time and effort it takes for you to go solar.

We work with you to secure the simplest and least expensive funding options out there. Our Solar Power Agreement (SPA), a service agreement similar to an equipment lease, knocks 16% or more off of any solar installer bid by monetizing tax credits normally denied tax exempt organizations. CollectiveSun also helps you find the best way to fund the remaining 84% from a combination of options that include low-cost and long-term loans, reserves, donations and crowdlending. Plus, our team uses its knowledge of solar engineering, nonprofit solar finance solutions, and project management to walk you through the entire proposal and installation process.

You end up with a solar system that reduces your carbon footprint and is a $0 down investment with a positive cash flow from day one, so it has an immediate impact on your bottom line. And that’s what we want most for the organizations that are the backbone of our communities – financial and environmental sustainability that allows you to concentrate on your mission.

HOW IT WORKS

GET PROJECT BIDS FROM SOLAR INSTALLERS

If you don’t already have a quote from a solar installer, the first step in the process of going solar is to secure at least 3 solar installation bids through a competitive bidding process. CollectiveSun is happy to introduce you to installers that we’ve worked with in the past.
