Powering the Confluence Center with the Sun

The Confluence Center is designed to be a hub for education, collaboration, and community in western Colorado — and sustainability is at the heart of that vision.

By adding a rooftop solar array, we will reduce operating costs for our nonprofit tenants and model environmental responsibility for the next generation.

Your support will help us raise $150,000 to install this system. Every gift brings us closer to powering our community with clean, renewable energy.

Why Now?

Confluence Center of Colorado has a time-sensitive opportunity to complete the Phase Two solar build-out at the Confluence Center before key federal incentives expire on December 31st. By acting now, we can capture significant savings and maximize long-term benefits.

  • Proposal: 40.9 kW solar installation by Atlasta Solar (109 panels)

  • Impact: Offsets 70% of the Center’s electricity use

  • Smart build: Uses infrastructure already in place
