RE-volv

RE-volv RE-volv empowers people to bring clean energy to their communities. So we created a new way for people to take action. It's a pretty simple idea.

We believe that everyone should have the ability to support and spread clean energy within their communities. Through an innovative solar financing model, RE-volv and our Solar Ambassadors help nonprofits all over the country go solar and immediately save on their electricity costs. As these nonprofits pay us back, we reinvest the money into more solar projects in communities across the country. T

his creates a revolving fund for solar energy that continually perpetuates itself, building more and more solar. It's a pay-it-forward model for solar energy. We call it the Solar Seed Fund.

Today, YEAH Philly is saving roughly 40% on their monthly energy bills. By fueling efforts to dismantle the school-to-prison pipeline and building clean energy career paths for West Philly youth, this solar project is a win for the whole community.

With solar, YEAH Philly continues its mission to be a welcoming space for youth, reinvesting energy savings into programs that get young people off the streets and help to end cycles of incarceration.

🎉 The installation was completed last fall by RE-volv, GreenBrilliance - Powering a Solar Future, and Swarthmore College’s Good Energy Collaborative. This project was supported by Billie Eilish’s Changemaker Program via a grant to RE-volv through Reverb, along with support from the Hammond Climate Solutions Foundation Solar Moonshot Program.

Throwback Pride news spotlight around when Oakland’s Montclair Presbyterian Church began their solar journey with RE-volv!

In 2024, Montclair Presbyterian Church (MPC) committed to a brighter future by installing 15 kW of solar power across three of their church buildings. Today, they’re projected to save $318,000 on energy bills over the system’s lifetime.

Come learn about solar for nonprofits at a virtual discussion during the first-ever Cincinnati Climate Week ☀️

On Monday, June 8th, join City Of Cincinnati Government, Solar United Neighbors, RE-volv & Faith Communities Go Green to explore how nonprofits in your local neighborhood can go solar with zero-money down, saving on energy bills from day one.

RE-volv has seen this model in action, helping four Ohio nonprofits—from farms to community service centers—go solar and save: East End Community Services, Mission of Mary Cooperative, Oak Tree Corner, and Garden Valley Neighborhood House. (Take a look at some of their solar arrays below!)
