Solar on Multifamily Affordable Housing

While California leads the country in building and developing clean energy infrastructure, only the wealthiest Californians have historically accessed the benefits of solar energy for their own homes. Centuries of systemic racism, including redlining, resource extraction, and institutional neglect have left most working class communities without the capital, credit, or property ownership to personally invest in, and benefit from, clean energy.
