On Memorial Day, we pause to remember the brave men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces who have given their lives in service to our nation. We are grateful for their sacrifice and mindful of the responsibility we all share to honor their memory as we enjoy the freedoms secured for us by their valor.

We’re excited to share that Clearloop is featured in REI’s newly released 2025 Impact Report! 🌞

REI highlighted our partnership supporting new solar development in Tennessee—an effort tied to the opening of their newest distribution center and already delivering real results, including 2,196 RECs produced in 2025.

We’re grateful to work alongside partners like REI who are committed to building a healthier planet through meaningful, place-based clean energy projects.

It's Teacher Appreciation week, and we couldn't be more grateful for our incredible teachers who choose to spend their time learning about solar energy with us as a part of our Energize STEM program. You are all superheroes, helping young people shape brighter futures and stronger communities every single day.

Recently in Brownsville, Tennessee, we had the opportunity to see the future of clean energy education come to life. ⚡☀️

Clearloop’s Energize STEM program brought local educators together for a hands‑on workshop designed to help 4th–9th grade students learn about renewable energy and careers in clean tech—right in their own classrooms.

Through activities like building solar‑powered fountains and mini‑grids, educators explored the fundamentals of electricity, circuits, and solar energy, while gaining community‑informed resources aligned with state education standards. These tools are now headed straight back to classrooms, where they can spark curiosity, confidence, and long‑term interest in STEM.

Energize STEM is built to be scalable and replicable, with one goal in mind: creating lasting impact by equipping teachers and empowering students—especially in communities that have historically had fewer opportunities to engage with clean energy firsthand.

Our co‑founder and CEO Laura Zapata was profiled recently by The American Leader. Read the article linked below to learn more about Laura's long and winding road to leadership in the solar sector and about Clearloop's vision for a geographically and socioeconomically conscious approach to energy development.

As Laura explains, investing in new, American solar projects doesn’t just address emissions—it can also serve as an economic driver for communities that have historically been overlooked in the clean energy transition. That belief is at the heart of Clearloop’s mission: helping companies reclaim their carbon footprint while expanding access to clean energy and economic opportunity at the same time.

We’re grateful to The American Leader for spotlighting this approach and for helping elevate the conversation around high‑integrity, community‑centered carbon solutions.

Laura Zapata leads Clearloop, a solar power company that sells carbon offsets to finance its projects in distressed communities.

Happy ! Earth Day reminds us that a huge element of caring for the planet is equipping the next generation of its caretakers. Local teachers in our Energize STEM program visited our Brownsville Solar Farm to see how it works up close—not as a distant concept, but as a living example of what renewable energy looks like in their own backyard.

By equipping educators with hands‑on experiences and real local stories, we’re helping more students see themselves as problem‑solvers, innovators, and caretakers of the world they’ll inherit. We are grateful for these local leaders who are joining us on the journey.

Teachers and administrators from our Haywood County Schools Energize STEM cohort recently joined us at the Brownsville Solar Farm on a beautiful spring day to learn more about local solar generation—and how they can translate real‑world solar energy concepts into their classrooms.

During the visit, they saw firsthand how Nextpower tracking systems adjust module angles to capture the most sunlight and learned how our team is revitalizing the land—from a former cotton field to a thriving perennial grassland.

Experiences like this reflect how we’re always looking for new opportunities for our projects to deliver value beyond the megawatts—by supporting local schools, educators, and communities and creating hands‑on learning opportunities connected to the places where we operate.
