About us

Solar2Share Collective is a collaborative initiative bringing together multiple industry companies to provide free solar stations to healthcare and educational facilities. This program aims to support these institutions by reducing their energy costs and promoting sustainable energy practices. 

To date, the initiative has successfully installed 16 solar stations, totaling 420 kW, in hospitals and educational institutions across seven countries. By leveraging the collective expertise and resources of participating companies, Solar2Share Collective is making a significant impact on communities by fostering energy independence and environmental responsibility.

Companies across the PV industry and beyond are invited to participate in the Solar2Share Collective. Whether you manufacture PV components, specialize in installation, or have extra stock, your contributions are crucial. Media outlets, influencers, and non-solar businesses passionate about making a difference are also welcome to join.

Social Center Aleksandrów Kujawski
“The Socialization Centre is a place that creates a home for children whose biological parents are unable to take care of them. Last year’s electricity cost of our house was 23,000 PLN, it is estimated that with the use of photovoltaics, it will be about 5,000 PLN. There is no comparison at all, we are simply happy.” - Alina Mikołajska, Director of the Socialization Centre in Aleksandrów Kujawski.

Children's Regional Hospital
“A solar station with energy storage at the neonatal building is a fact of our victory over darkness and the fact that we find new approaches to life and its development during the darkest times. This hybrid solar system will not only be a guaranteed source of backup power supply, it will also help the hospital to be energy independent from the grid despite unfavorable circumstances. This project also has an ecological and economic effect, because it brings thousands of tons of non-generated CO2 emissions and savings on utility costs.”- Yuliana Onishchuk, founder and CEO of the Energy Act For Ukraine Foundation.
