WHAT: Ameresco, Inc., (NYSE: AMRC), a leading energy solutions provider dedicated to helping customers navigate the energy transition, and officials from the City of Pendleton, Oregon will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of a major solar canopy project.
The 240 kW solar canopy is located at the City's Wastewater Treatment and Resource Recovery Facility (WWTRRF) and is the first of its kind in the region. It is expected to generate as much as 325,000 kWh of electricity annually, offsetting the energy use of the WWTRRF by 30%. This project is part of a broader initiative at the Pendleton WWTRRF, which includes a suite of renewable energy and efficiency upgrades designed to reduce the facility's carbon footprint and operational costs. In addition to the solar PV canopy, future plans include the integration of a battery energy storage system (BESS) that will further enhance the facility's energy management capabilities.
The multiphase infrastructure improvement initiative was delivered through an Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC) with Ameresco, who provided price and performance guarantees and helped ensure participation from disadvantaged and local businesses. The project reflects Pendleton's commitment to energy efficiency, resilience and innovation in environmental stewardship.
This celebration highlights a critical investment in energy infrastructure that will provide a blueprint for other cities in the future.
