Virgance/1BOG CEO On the Radio

One Block Off the Grid started in a coffee shop with three people.  Recognizing the demand nationwide for cheaper and easier solar, the 1BOG team quickly realized they could not scale on their own.  They wanted to transform solar markets all over the county and cause a tipping point in residential solar and it just wasn’t going to be possible for them to achieve as three people in a coffee shop.  1BOG joined forces with Virgance, an incubator for campaigns and ideas existing at the cross-section of capitalism and activism.  Virgance provides the framework and infrastructure, which allow campaigns to flourish and cause change.
