Zero Carbon Communities is a nonprofit organization dedicated to proactively reducing carbon emissions with proven technologies in innovative ways.
These include education and action.
We develop projects for energy efficiency and carbon-free power producing systems on each site that will entertain the proposal. Reducing energy use means a smaller renewable energy system is needed. This combined technologies approach reduces the cost and thereby improves the economics of replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy systems.
We focus on developing systems for commercial, government, industrial and apartment buildings, plus for homes, particularly low-income homeowners …
… and aiding new home community developers build carbon-free homes and businesses– truly carbon free communities, for living, working and transportation.
We can operate in any of the contiguous 48 states. If you want us to develop a project for you, please contact us.
Information that helps people take their own action is plentiful but scattered. Hence most Americans are undereducated on practical steps to reduce their own emissions. We’ll try to make it easy to understand and facilitate their action.
Our actions are primarily focused on installing energy efficiency and renewable energy systems at low or no cost to low income and economically disadvantaged homes and farms.
In addition, we have a detailed plan for developers and builders of new home communities, on how they can, from the first phase of development, make their communities truly zero carbon on both homes and transportation.
Finally, we bring decades of expertise to commercial projects where a combination of technologies is necessary to make a project pencil, be a compelling economic proposal. Most commercial buildings are not just paying for kilowatt hours of power they use. A large part of the electric bill is for peak electrical loads, or Peak Demand.

For no charge we offer help to homeowners who have been taken advantage of, where they have bad outcome from a solar project. When possible, we will repair solar systems and interconnect them to the electric Grid, getting them turned on and producing power. This is possible for most systems that are not owned by third party operators like leasing companies. When a third party owns a system and when the homeowner is not satisfied, we’ll work to intervene on behalf of the homeowner, for a positive outcome.
We will provide accurate information that can be used by pretty anyone. This involves the launch of a new system for quantifying emissions and putting them on a numerical scale. We call this the Carson Scale, to honor Rachel Carson, author of the first great environmental book Silent Spring. Watch for the launch, on this site.
