This is a free, asynchonous, online course designed to support the accelerated development of equitable community solar. Part of the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Community Power Accelerator, the course was developed by Housing Sustainability Advisors and the Center for Impact Finance at the University of New Hampshire's Carsey School of Public Policy, in collaboration with nine other expert organizations in the community development field. The course consists of 8 modules of self-paced activities, videos, and learning assessments. This course will deliver practical information to guide community-based, mission-driven, and low-income-focused organizations in how to develop community solar projects that serve low-income communities and further environmental and social justice. It is modeled after the Community Power Accelerator’s instructor-led Learning Lab on the same topic. Interested participants can enroll and begin the course at any time, and complete as few or as many modules as desired. Learn more and register here.
