CHERP Solar Works created the

first ever, locally-based, non-profit

solar panel assembly factory and is now incubating this model in cities across the country.  

​

We are building a brighter, cleaner and more community-oriented future for our communities.

​

The assembly factory will have a small footprint of only 6,000 ft², but create 213 middle class manufacturing and construction jobs.  When you include indirect jobs, there will be 763 new jobs in total at peak production.

​

Installing locally made, 6,000 CLGP solar systems will save our LMI households $6.5 Million every year, will be maintained by cap-and-trade carbon-credit funding and are projected to last 25+ years.

​

Monthly savings - an increase in Disposable Personal Income (DPI) - are spent locally, increasing a family’s quality of life and growing the local economy. DPI spending ($6.5 Million per year) increases city revenues by 12% and state revenues by a 2:1 ratio.
