# Weku

Weku turns homes into mini power plants to fuel our Virtual Power Pool.

## Elevator pitch
We provide companies looking to fulfill ESG goals with high-quality Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SRECs). Their purchase of our SRECs finance solar installations in disenfranchised communities - which directly benefits families by reducing monthly energy expenses. This is also setting the groundwork for us to become one of the largest alternative energy providers in the country.
