About Going Solar!

We are a community based non-profit working with local volunteers to make the Southern Tier of NY healthier and more sustainable. Our primary focus is renewable energy. We help residents and small business owners go solar. In order to accomplish this, we’ve partnered with three excellent installers to streamline the process of going solar. We work together to help you maximize government and state benefits so that solar becomes very affordable. Declare your energy independence today! 

Going Solar! is a partner of  Renewable NY funded by NYSERDA
