Municipal Recreation Center

At a municipal recreation center, Solar Alliance has designed a rooftop photovoltaic system to support a municipality’s sustainability goals. The PV system will be integrated with battery energy storage (BESS) for timeshift capabilities. This project is supported by a US Department of Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG).

Private Business

At the private event venue, Solar Alliance is coordinating via a leading architectural firm to design a canopy solar photovoltaic structure. Renewable energy will accentuate the harmonious nature of this site’s natural features and its repurposed spaces. Solar energy will offset a portion of power used to run this center for special occasions.

Appalachian Harvest Community Food Hub

Solar Alliance is honored to be selected as the winning bidder to design a renewable energy system that supports a Southwest Virginia nonprofit food hub engaged in building a stronger food and agriculture economy, with a focus on sustainable agriculture, food access and regional economic development. The project is a collaboration of Appalachian Voices and Google along with project partners Appalachian Sustainable Development, Invest Appalachia and the Appalachian Solar Finance Fund. It incorporates a designed solar PV array plus a battery energy storage system (BESS), adding resilience to this critical support for neighbors in need.
