Neighborhood Sun, in 2021 alone, pushed 192 million pounds of CO2-equivalent out of our economy. That’s equal to taking about 19,000 passenger vehicles off the road for a year. They have connected enough customers to “community solar” projects in just the past couple of years to achieve amazing results. The company has opened up a Community Round of investment, which means that anybody can now “own a piece of the Sun” with an investment in Neighborhood Sun. Learn how you can invest in an up-and-coming solar company based in Maryland but expanding nationally. Email Gary Skulnik, the CEO, at gary.skulnik@neighborhoodsun.solar.
