Making Clean Energy Inclusive For All

Our mission is simple - to make clean energy inclusive. ​​​​​​​At Sunrun, we believe that empowering people and valuing their differences is essential for our mission to create a planet run by the sun. That's why we strive to make solar inclusive in our workforce, workplaces, and the industry as a whole.

Women in Solar

At Sunrun, women are paving the way for future generations. Working women and those returning to the workforce have a purpose and place here.

Pay Parity 

Sunrun was the first national solar company to fully achieve gender pay equity. We adhere to the California Equal Pay Pledge and the White House Equal Pay Pledge. We pay all employees a wage of at least $15 per hour, and we remain commi!ed to leading the industry in pay fairness.

Sunrun Veterans

Sunrun was the first national solar company to offer career opportunities to transitioning service members and spouses of active-duty military personnel through the Department of Defense’s SkillBridge program and the Military Spouse Employment Program (MSEP). Sunrun has hired 500 veterans since 2021.

Diversity in Leadership

At Sunrun, we're committed to having diversity represented at every level of our organization. We are making great strides in building diverse leadership teams that reflect the diversity of our customer base – everyone under the sun.

Values

Our journey started in a San Francisco attic with a vision to build a planet run by the sun. Our goal was simple: make clean energy accessible and affordable. Today, our passion for innovation still drives us. Our values continue to guide our growth, and our belief in clean energy will never change.

At Sunrun, we have three company values that create the framework of everything we do

  • We Love People
  • We Love to Create
  • We Love to Run.

But now more than ever, we’re dreaming even bigger about the difference that Sunrun can make. Today, our ambition is to break down barriers and build communities to change the centralized energy system for all. That means building a diverse, inclusive team and culture and living the values that we share.
