The stakes are higher than ever.
The transition from fossil fuels to clean energy is under brutal attack from Washington. Not only that, but we’re beginning to see some cracks in the climate action foundation at the State Houses. But perseverance and solidarity are what we are all about at Green Energy Consumers Alliance. We need to keep up the momentum to bring clean energy to all.
Here's how we're doing it.
The EquiSol program is financing rooftop solar projects that for-profit companies would pass up. Low- and moderate-income households are the program's target, and as hosts for solar, they'd see savings on their electric bills.
Our Solar Bank program is sending electric bill credits from solar projects to low-income families, and we'd like to serve many more. The Solar Bank is a clean, modern successor to the Oil Bank program we ran for many years.
As for advocacy, we want Rhode Island to pass the Building Decarbonization Act to address the 35% of greenhouse gas emissions that come from buildings. And in Massachusetts, there are a number of policies being developed within the executive branch that we will be advocating for, including a 100+ page energy affordability bill.
Your donations will help keep our programming and advocacy strong as we enter a new fiscal year on July 1.
Why I give
Daria M.
"We support Green Energy Consumers Alliance because we want them to do the important work of making EVs available and accessible to more people, bringing heat pumps to the masses, and making clean electricity available to individuals and whole cities and towns at once. Our monthly donation is important because it gives stability to Green Energy Consumers to keep doing the hard work. We donate like our children's lives depend on it - because they do. "

"Green Energy Consumers Alliance has been helping our family for decades — first, with affordable oil, then with the switch to green electricity and EVs. They consistently provide trustworthy information and effective programs that make it easy for us to reduce our carbon footprint, and we appreciate that! They’re a resource we (and the planet) simply can’t do without! "
Dennis M.
"You bring me thoughtful webinars to help educate me on new energy systems, reach out to my legislators to help craft meaningful change in our communities, and most importantly have made amazing progress in renewable energy aggregation helping to improve the costs of wind and solar power. I can’t think of a better organization to support as I look forward to a greener future."
