Solar Richmond was founded to promote and inspire the use of solar power and energy efficiency to bring the economic benefits of the green economy to the local community. We aim to:

  • Decrease your energy bills through renewable solar energy
  • Provide Richmond residents with cutting-edge professional solar technology skills that will lead to good-paying jobs
  • Help the planet by decreasing greenhouse gas emissions

Solar Richmond has partnered with RichmondBUILD to add solar education to its innovative 10-week pre-apprenticeship construction-training program.  This collaboration focuses on Green Collar job skills that include classroom training on solar technology and installation, hands-on experience with installation teams and valuable connections with solar contractors.  Graduates of this program are Richmond residents, and have trained side-by-side with solar contractors to successfully install residential and commercial solar systems.  Our crew members receive living wages, and are excited to use their professional skills to help you go solar, regardless of your income.

Ella Baker Center and Green For All are advocating for Green Jobs throughout and California and Nationally...
