Planet Solar announced a program that will provide free solar energy systems to 10 families in Puerto Rico, part of what the company described as an effort to expand access to renewable power and improve household energy resilience.
The company said the “Brilla Gratis con Planet Solar” initiative will provide complete residential solar systems to selected families, allowing them to generate their own electricity as Puerto Rico continues to face challenges with its power grid.
“At Planet Solar, we believe that solar energy has the power to transform lives. With ‘Brilla Gratis,’ we want to give back to Puerto Rico and offer 10 families the opportunity to have access to clean and reliable energy in their homes,” said Luis Acosta-Benítez, executive director of Planet Solar.
According to the company, the selected families will receive professional installation of the equipment, which Planet Solar said is intended to provide longer-term energy security while promoting the use of renewable power.
Planet Solar said the program is also meant to show how solar energy can affect daily life while encouraging more households to consider similar systems.
“Our mission is not just to install panels, but to ignite a spark of hope in the communities. We want the impact of this gift to be felt in every corner of the island, demonstrating that energy security is a right that we should all achieve,” Acosta-Benítez said.
Residents in Puerto Rico may apply through the company’s online registration process.
