Power in Community

Our power comes from people

Solar United Neighbors (SUN) began with a single neighborhood coming together to go solar, and grew into a national movement. This film tells that story. 

Through the voices of homeowners, business owners, and advocates, you’ll see how SUN helps communities harness clean energy, strengthen resilience, and stand up for energy rights.

When you watch, you’re not just seeing our past, you’re witnessing the power we can build together.
