GRID Alternatives’ Tribal Solar Accelerator Fund (TSAF) is proud to announce a significant investment in its mission to advance clean energy solutions within tribal communities. TSAF has been awarded a generous $25 million grant from the Waverley Street Foundation (WSF). This transformative grant will catalyze the growth of renewable energy initiatives, strengthen tribal self-sufficiency, and drive sustainable economic development across Indian Country.
GRID Alternatives Bay Area North Coast is grateful to share that we have been working in partnership with the Yurok Tribe, developing the Weitchpec Tulley Creek Sustainable Facilities Project.
We are delighted to introduce you to Jose Velarde, a remarkable Mendocino College student who has been an invaluable asset to our North Coast team as a community engagement trainee.
Recently, GRID installed 20 off-grid solar-powered refrigerators for families in the Kumeyaay communities of Juntas de Neji and San Antonio Necua with support from Sempra Foundation. Refrigeration allows families to keep food, beverages, and medicine cold without having to drive 20-40 minutes to a nearby town to buy ice. The solar systems immediately save families time, money and improve health.
