One
You fund solar
Make a 0% interest nonprofit investment. 100% of your money finances solar projects across India and Africa — creating 5x the carbon impact of investing in US solar.
Two
We lend to solar developers
Your investment is pooled in the Renewables Fund and lent to vetted solar developers in the Global South, directed toward projects that create the greatest carbon avoidance.
Three
Developers build solar projects
Solar developers deploy funds to install solar on commercial sites — universities, factories, and warehouses. Solar energy is carbon-free, more reliable, and cheaper than fossil alternatives.
Four
Solar projects earn & repay
As solar projects generate and sell clean energy, they repay the Renewables Fund over a five-year period — and you get your money back.
Five
You get repaid
Monthly repayments are added to your Renewables.org balance. Reinvest to fund even more solar, or withdraw funds back to your personal account.
On average, solar we finance creates 5.5x the impact per dollar invested compared with US projects.
Create impact in minutes.
