April 19, 2023 (San Diego) -- The Tribal Solar Accelerator Fund: Tribal Facility and Residential Grant Program catalyzes the growth of solar energy and expands solar job opportunities in tribal communities across the United States. TSAF's Tribal Facility and Residential Grant Program provides grants of up to $200,000 for the purchase and installation of solar energy systems.

Eligible applicants include federally recognized tribes and tribally led 501(c)3 organizations in support of federally recognized tribes in the lower 48 states and Alaska. Facility funding can support rooftop, carport, or ground-mount solar installations that meet the energy needs of the tribal community, while residential funding is designated for solar energy installed on a single-family home or small multi-family complex to significantly reduce the burden of electricity costs.

Applications will be accepted through May 31, 2023. Visit the TSAF website for more information on the Tribal Facility and Residential Grant Program, as well as other funding opportunities and programs that will open in 2023.
