Community-owned energy, such as providing opportunities for citizens to gain control over community resources, can decrease local vulnerability while supporting national climate and resilience goals. Saltuba Cooperative’s solar array is a 5kW installation on a carport structure in a public area known as the “gap tap.” It utilizes existing public spaces within townships. The land in Saltuba's "gap tap" is also being used for food gardens irrigated by greywater and rainwater from participating households. The re-utilization of the "gap tap" area in this community shows multiple benefits and implies great potential for applying solar deployment across the country.
