Go solar with no capital.

Going solar to reduce or eliminate your electric bill is now possible with no capital through a Brightwell investment.

Stop rising energy costs

The cost of energy continues to increase, limiting the overall resources available to deliver on your institution’s mission. You can change this future.

Organization Annual Expenses

Program Expenses

Overall costs related to running the programs and services offered by an organization per its core mission.

Energy Expenses

The cost of “keeping the lights on.” Electric costs continue to rise at historic rates creating a larger burden and taking away resources from core programs.

Operating Expenses

Administrative and fundraising costs required to run the organization. The Better Business Bureau say that no more than 35% of a nonprofit’s budget should be spent on operating expenses.

Experience the power of a Brightwell Investment

No capital needed from your institution


Enable your organization to embrace renewable energy without the burden of a capital investment. Benefit from reduced energy costs, long-term financial stability, and a greener footprint with no added operating expense.

Solar energy not only reduces the organization’s carbon footprint but also saves on energy costs, allowing more resources to be allocated towards their core mission and project.

“I care deeply about the mission of the Hope House and was amazed at the rate their electric costs were skyrocketing, forcing the organization to make tough decisions around how they serviced and staff residents in need. A Brightwell investment allowed me to save them $650,000, creating a win-win.”
