Solar United Neighbors (SUN) and Rewiring America will host an energy focused event on Tuesday, September 29, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Montclair Recreation Center in Denver, Colorado. Residents can learn how rooftop solar, battery storage and heat pumps work, and how group purchasing and available incentives can make clean-energy home upgrades more affordable.
The “Powering Our Communities” event will provide practical information about solar panels and battery storage, how heat pumps can heat and cool homes, and ways these technologies can help residents lower their energy costs. The event is supporting Switch Together, a group-buying program offered in partnership with the city and county of Denver that helps residents save on solar, battery storage and heat pumps.
“If you’ve ever thought about going solar, now’s your chance,” said Hannah Mitchell, west region Switch Together partner director at SUN. “Switch Together helps you every step of the way. We work with you to understand if going solar is right for you and your family.”
Switch Together uses collective purchasing power to secure competitive prices from vetted contractors. Residents can sign up at no cost and without any obligation to proceed with a project.
In 2025, 5,000 new Colorado residents joined the program and nearly 1,000 went solar. During that program, SUN reported a 20% group discount, or an average discount of $5,135 per participating household. And in 2025, SUN helped more than 20 income-qualified Denver families access additional financial support through a city-partnered rebate program, saving those homeowners an average of $6,000 on upfront solar costs in addition to the group discount.
