Sustainability Partners & ESG start 6 MW solar project in US
Sustainability Partners, a public benefit company, in collaboration with Energy Systems Group (ESG), is deploying approximately 6 MW of solar energy generation across eight City of Albuquerque facilities. SP provides capital and facilitates the installation and long-term care of the infrastructure. The City of Albuquerque aims to close the remaining gap toward its goal of 100% renewable energy for municipal operations. To mark the start of construction, a groundbreaking ceremony was held last week at the first two locations, the City’s Eastside Animal Shelter and Highland Pool. West Mesa Aquatic Center, Duke City BMX Park, Isotopes Park, Ken Sanchez Transit Facility, the City’s 911 Call Center, and the Albuquerque International Sunport are the other six locations where installations are planned. ESG designed a combination of rooftop and solar carport installations, expanding renewable energy generation while creating shaded parking at several City facilities.
