Pirucho Coop started out in response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria on Puerto Rico’s energy system. With the help of FCPR, Pirucho Coop established the first solar energy community under a cooperative model on the island. Nelson and Feliciano share how they’ve overcome limited resources and structural challenges on their way to finding the right model for their community.
