About

Founded in 2007, Association Sun-Power is a ngo headquartered in Bernex, Switzerland specializing in Solar.

Association Sun-Power is a non-profit organization established in 2007 dedicated to promoting photovoltaic solar energy and sustainable energy resource development in Switzerland, specifically in the Geneva region. The association operates as a community movement, enabling citizens to participate in solar energy development through participatory financing models. It serves tenants and property owners who lack sufficient resources or rooftop space to build individual installations. The association manages solar central construction and operations, providing operational support and expertise to help develop photovoltaic projects. Member participation is open to all; active membership requires an annual fee of CHF 15, with passive membership available at no cost. The organization is recognized as a public utility with statutes registered in the commercial register. It has facilitated the realization of over 30 photovoltaic solar centrals, including two facilities constructed in Bernex in 2011. Participatory funding campaigns have achieved full capital targets, with participants receiving repayment and ongoing revenue share from electricity sales.
