Agreement Allows Saratoga-based Zero Energy Consulting Firm to Market and Sell Subscriptions to Community Solar Projects Across the Region
Saratoga Springs, NY – ReWire Energy today announced an exciting new partnership with U.S. Light Energy, a Latham, New York-based distributed generation energy development company, that will offer power from U.S. Light Energy’s Community Solar Projects to ReWire customers across the greater Capital Region. U.S. Light Energy specializes in Community Solar facilities and solar renewable energy solutions for residential, small commercial, and municipal customers.
As part of this new partnership, ReWire, a family owned minority business enterprise based in downtown Saratoga Springs, will offer subscriptions to popular and flexible renewable energy program – Community Solar. This new offering comes in addition to the in-depth strategic energy consulting services offered by ReWire to commercial real estate developers, nonprofits, and government agencies.
ReWire is offering Community Solar subscriptions for all types of utility customers, including businesses, homeowners, renters, multifamily property owners, churches and other non-profits. These subscriptions are initiated through a simple process that enables all utility customers to share in a local, New York solar farm. The solar farms provide clean solar power to the utility’s electric grid and generate energy credits for the subscribers. The energy credits are applied to subscribers’ utility bills, and subscribers are then billed at a 10% discount for the value of the credits.
ReWire handles the entire subscription process, meeting with each utility customer to review their energy bills and walk the subscriber through the application. Interested customers can visit rewireenergy.com/community-solar/ to start the subscription process. Community Solar subscribers do not need to install any new equipment at their location and there is no cost to subscribe.
Lee Evans, President of ReWire Energy said, “ReWire is thrilled to partner with the incredible team at U.S. Light Energy. Their deep industry experience and expertise expands our team’s offerings to present the full gamut of energy products and consulting needs. We’re confident our team will be able to deliver even more compelling outcomes for municipal, commercial and residential customers.”
Mark Richardson, CEO of U.S. Light Energy said “Adding ReWire to our team is a natural fit that will expand our ability to reach more subscribers in this vital market, making the Capital Region, and all of New York, cleaner and more sustainable.”
This new partnership commenced in summer of 2019.
