Viewing Grant Proposal: City of Ypsilanti-Solar on Residential Homes
Most solar power is installed at utility scale or on upper SES homes, not lower-income households due to costs and tax credit issues. Our goal is to install solar on +100 low-income homes, saving homeowners $50 per month. Installing +100 systems at one time, in one area, will produce an economy of scale, yielding a cost below $2/watt. In addition to lowering CO2 and providing low-income residents savings, the project 3will also train and hire local residents, creating new job opportunities.

This is an excellent project that will meaningful address cost of solar by coupling bulk purchasing and innovative financing and make these advancements available to low-income homes. This project checks all the boxes of the MI Healthy Climate plan.
