2022 Denver Solar Co-op releases RFP, announces info sessions

The 62-member Denver Solar Co-op today issued a request for proposals (RFP) from area solar installers. The group members created the co-op to save money and make going solar easier, while building a network of solar supporters. Denver’s Office of Climate Action, Sustainability & Resiliency is sponsoring the co-op. The group will host a launch event on Wednesday, July 20 at 5:30pm at the Posner Center for International Development (with a virtual attendance option) to educate the community about solar and the co-op process. The group will also host an information session on Tuesday, August 2 at 5:30pm at Cheluna Brewing Company.

Local installers interested in serving the group can download the RFP and response template here. Denver residents who interested in joining the co-op can sign up on the co-op’s webpage.

The solar co-op is free to join and joining is not a commitment to purchase panels. Co-op members will select a single company to complete all the installations. They will then have the option to purchase panels individually based on the installer’s group rate. By going solar as a group and choosing a single installer, members can save up off the cost of going solar and have the support of fellow group members and solar experts at Solar United Neighbors.
