RE-volv, founded in 2011 is a nonprofit that empowers people to support clean energy and combat climate change via crowdfunding campaigns that enable community-serving nonprofit organizations to go solar, reduce their carbon footprints, and save on their electricity bills. There are roughly 1.5 million nonprofits and 30,000 cooperatives in the United States that face major barriers to getting their solar projects financed. These organizations have a difficult time finding financing because of their inability to take advantage of solar tax credits, the difficulty establishing their credit worthiness, and their small solar energy system size (10kW-30kW. For reference, 5kW powers a medium-sized home). RE-volv seeks to serve this niche yet incredibly influential market. RE-volv offers a zero down, 20 year solar lease option that offers up to 15% or more in electric cost savings. At the same time, RE-volv earns between 6-12% Internal Rate of Return on each project.
