WHO WE ARE Greenzu helps small businesses and non-profits go solar by removing the upfront cost. The biggest barrier to these buildings going solar is a lack of financing. To solve this problem, Greenzu developed an innovative solar system that we combine with a unique "no money down" financing package. Instead of paying upfront for the solar equipment, our business/non-profit customers just buys electricity from us. THE OPPORTUNITY With 4 million commercial rooftops ready for solar, Greenzu is poised to help America remove 57 Billion tons of CO2 from the air. Now we need a few smart, creative, interns to communicate this to the nation's media and business leaders. Our interns help us research the cost and benefits of clean tech for our clients. In addition, they act as solar advocates to the small business community. In return, we'll teach you all about renewable energy, solar finance, marketing, PR, and running a start-up. RESPONSIBILITIES Although this is a unpaid internship, the opportunity for students/recent grads is extremely rewarding. By joining the Greenzu team, you will be directly involved in not only the actual outreach but also with the overall market development strategy. You will also help draft articles for online publication and client reports.
