Origis Energy is committed to making contributions in communities where our utility scale clean energy projects are located. The new $50,000 Wing Solar Scholarship by Origis Energy and PowerSouth Energy Cooperative is administered by The Lurleen B. Wallace Community College (LBWCC) Foundation. It is a one time endowment for high achieving students attending LBWCC who demonstrate a financial need and are intending to pursue a degree in a Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM) related program. Origis also made a one time donation of $50,000 to the Wing Volunteer Fire Department.
