In our first campaign with Real Goods Solar, 1BOG was responsible for 20% of all San Francisco properties that converted to solar in the fourth quarter of 2008. We project a 300% increase within the first quarter of 2009.

Our pilot in San Francisco demonstrated the power that community aggregation can harness.  50% of all people who signed up received an on-site home evaluation and 50% of those who had an evaluation bought solar.

We are a nationwide, community-based program that organizes residents locally and negotiates group discounts with solar installers, using a comprehensive vendor selection process.  As a group we are more knowledgeable, more powerful, and we can make a difference. Take the first step toward your carbon free life with 1 Block Off the Grid.

We’re on a mission to make solar power accessible at a fraction of the cost, one city at a time.  The stronger our community gets, the better the prices and terms we’re able to negotiate for you. Sign up on the right for group savings  on solar energy!

You can always check our MAP to see how we’re doing.

Poke around, zoom in on your area, and when you’re friends sign up, you’ll see a bogman nearby! (it’s not exactly on top of your house, but it’s close).
