YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Although they may want to power their homes with clean energy, more than 43% of Dutch households can’t install solar panels because they live in apartments, don’t own the building or have too much shade on their rooftop.

WeShareSolar is working to ensure everyone in The Netherlands has access to solar power, even if they don’t have a roof. The largest crowdfunding platform in the EU for community solar projects, WeShareSolar connects site owners who have a suitable roof (but are not able to invest in solar themselves) with consumers that want to buy a solar panel but do not have a suitable roof. The project makes it easier for third parties to develop and operate a community solar project.

WeShareSolar does this by providing access to finance and taking care of administrative tasks. Just as Airbnb made it possible for homeowners to become a host for travelers, WeShareSolar is the go-to platform for anyone who wants to invest in solar panels or 'rent out' their roof.
