Description
Beginning in 1979 with oil-trading ventures in Latin America and Africa, Citizens Energy has used revenues from commercial enterprises to channel millions of dollars into charitable programs in the U.S. and abroad. Whether heating the homes of the elderly and the poor, lowering the cost of prescription drugs for millions of Americans, or starting solar heating projects in Jamaica and Venezuela, Citizens creates social ventures as innovative as the businesses that finance them.
Citizens Energy's solar business seeks to develop successful solar projects to provide clean, green sources of renewable energy that reduce harmful carbon emissions and make us less dependent on foreign sources of fuel. At the same time, our solar projects generate revenues to serve our non-profit mission of making life's most basic needs more accessible and affordable.
