One Block Off the Grid, the nation’s largest community solar purchasing program, selected groSolar for its newest solar San Francisco campaign, as well as for its inaugural solar San Diego effort. 1BOG aggregates communities to bargain collectively for discounts from solar installers in the area, reducing the upfront cost of installation and providing solar education for everyone involved. groSolar was chosen from among the largest installers in the nation to run these campaigns after a rigorous bidding process, further demonstrating gro’s commitment to spreading as much solar to as many roofs as possible. In partnership with 1BOG, groSolar hopes to be able to dramatically increase the adoption of residential solar in these markets, and continue to lead the way to energy independence.
