Fewer Emissions, Lower Electric Bills
We are transitioning our community to be powered by clean, renewable solar energy. We can also reduce our need for air conditioning by installing roofs designed to reflect more of the sun’s heat.
Reduce your energy costs with free solar and cool roofs.
Cut your electricity bill by roughly 85% with solar.
GRID Alternatives will install solar on 175 single-family homes in Pacoima and Sun Valley. It’s free for the homeowner, based on income and other factors.
Keep your house cooler by keeping your roof cooler.
Reduce the amount of heat absorbed by your roof by switching to materials or color designed to reflect heat and cool your home. GRID Alternatives will install 35 such “cool roofs” on residential homes in the area, in advance of installing solar systems.

Turn Your Roofs Into Money-Making Assets
Sell energy back to the utility for a profit.
Owners of multi-family properties can:
- Create a steady stream of income for the next 20 years
- Gain a selling point for tenants who like living in solar-powered buildings
- Improve air quality and health for the region as a whole
Los Angeles Business Council will be installing solar on qualified multi-family residential properties in the area through its Feed-in Tariff (FiT) program. Feed-in Tariff is a fancy way of saying: put solar panels on your roof, feed that clean energy into the grid – and get paid for it.
