Governmental solar

When government agencies and municipalities use solar power for their electricity needs, they insulate their organizations from steeply rising utility prices and build themselves a more robust and controllable energy supply system. That means any money not spent on facilities can go directly to support the communities they serve, and that’s good for everyone. Local or state agencies that have more control over their power can worry less about costs, security, and resiliency and more about their residents.

Increasingly cities, mayors, or even state organizations in the US are shouldering the burden of combating climate change. Many have committed to transitioning their metro areas or operations to 100% renewable energy and have joined the Compact of Mayors to take climate action at a local level. Solar Energy Solutions has particular expertise in working with cities and their municipal building in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, and Virginia to install solar systems, and even couple it with Solarize campaigns offering discount bulk-buy PV pricing for residents.
