Equitable Solar SolutionsEquitable Solar Solutions (ESS) aims to bring solar energy to the low-income residents of Gunnison, CO.
We accomplish our mission and purpose through the acquisition of surplus solar panels from solar companies or individuals that are looking to upgrade their current solar system. While these panels are not new, they are still able to produce energy and thus still have immense value. By acquiring older panels, costs are drastically reduced, making financial feasibility far more achievable. Please contact us if you would like to donate solar equipment or make a direct donation. |
