Social activism
At Perch, we're passionate about building clean energy equity across our communities—which means bringing access to low-income families who struggle with fossil fuel pollution and a lack of affordable options. We actively partner with corporations, non-profits, state policy-makers and local leaders on projects that provide low-income families with the renewable solutions they deserve.
