Little USA Community
Solar Campus
Family Founded, Community Operated.
Little USA, Big Dreams.
Little USA (LUSA) Community Solar Campus is a multi-purpose facility and organization designed as a working renewable energy training and study center serving the greater Union Springs and Eastern Alabama Region. Local K-12 and regional post-secondary institutions will be able to use LUSA as an extension campus for school programs, research, career development, and career re-entry through hands-on experience for students at all levels.
We believe that a Clean Energy education mission, plus the ability to build the local workforce, will empower the community to engage in career opportunities in the globally developing Green Energy economy.
