of clean, renewable solar energy!
The Rural Renewable Energy Alliance (RREAL) is working to break down financial and informational barriers to the widespread use of solar energy. Like the digital divide which separates communities based on access to information, there is also a renewable divide. Lower income communities are in danger of being left behind as our society shifts towards a renewable economy.
Yet, it is our lower income communities that are most gravely affected by energy crises. When heating costs spike, our low-income communities feel it the most. Having to devote a larger percentage of personal income to the basic necessities of heat and power, lower income communities are always the most devastated.
RREAL is working to turn that notion on its head.
In order for our society as a whole to transition to a renewable and sustainable economy, access to renewable energy must be universal.
See how our programs are helping to accomplish that. Welcome!
