BlocPower

OverviewSuggest Edit

BlocPower markets and finances a portfolio of renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies to churches, schools, small businesses, and non-profits in underserved American inner cities. Property owners in these communities often spend as much as 30% of total income on energy costs, and often don't have the capital or credit to access energy saving technologies. The Company connects online investors to solar and energy efficiency project micro-finance opportunities, and trains and hires local unemployed workers to install all BlocPower retrofits. It will bring energy efficiency to a new market segment at scale.
