Case Study: Spotlight on Collaboration

OPPORTUNITY

With a goal to integrate the use of renewable energy, the City of Lexington, Nebraska, explored available opportunities. However, the upfront costs presented a challenge to the municipality.

RESOLUTION

The City of Lexington partnered with IGS Solar on the installation of what was noted as the second largest solar array (12,600 panels) in the state of Nebraska (at the time). The system is designed to meet 3% of the City’s annual power needs.

 

 

“Our partnership with IGS Solar...allows us to support the development of diversified renewable energy in Nebraska, play a part in the reduction of environmental emissions, and provide a long-term cost savings to benefit our electric customers."

-Joe Pepplitsch, City of Lexington
