Recurrent Energy Leases Rooftops for Distributed Generation

San Francisco company Recurrent Energy was founded on the powerful idea of leasing rooftop space to produce and sell solar power to the tenants inside (see EBN Vol. 17, No. 2). In its first year, the company has completed several large installations including a 1-MW system on the North Face distribution center in Visalia and a 412-kW system at the San Domenico school in Marin County, both in California. A 5-MW project at the Sunset Reservoir in San Francisco is currently in the works.

With a $75 million investment from Hudson Clean Energy Partners, Recurrent Energy hopes to continue its growth not only in California but in other states with strong incentives for renewable energy. More information is available at www.recurrentenergy.com.
