Inspiration to Start Company

Founders collectively have over 30 years of experience in working against climate change, including developing the first African American, utility-scale solar farm in the U.S., as well as developing the highest-efficiency solar module in the world. GPV was recently selected by the Department of Energy to advance its application for the EPIC2 competition which earned them a financial award of $50,000.
