Salt River Project is inviting Valley nonprofit organizations to apply for the chance to receive a solar system providing renewable energy and covered parking provided by the SRP Solar for Nonprofits program. The application period runs through August 14. The Solar for Nonprofits program is funded by customers who contribute as little as $3 a month to the SRP Solar for Nonprofits program. Those who contribute are giving to a cause that helps reduce local carbon emissions and helps nonprofits save on energy needed to run their business operations.The Humane Society is one of those non-profits who benefited from this program.

Erica Roelfs from SRP says, “Solar for Non-profits is a program we are extremely proud of at SRP. It does so much good in the community, for not only organizations that received the systems but for the whole community. So how it works is we have customers who donate to the program and with that money we actually install solar canopies in their parking lot which contribute solar energy to their energy bills, therefore lowering their electricity bills every month.”

Roelf said you have to be a 501c3 organization in SRP’s service area, and they need a proper parking lot to cover.
