The installation, which DSD will own and operate long-term, is expected to be operational in 2022 and will generate an estimated 900,000 kWh of clean, affordable energy annually, avoiding 638 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent each year.
The partnership between Solar Optimum and DSD is a product of DSD’s recently launched Developer Network. Through the Developer Network, Solar Optimum gains access to DSD Connect, a dedicated platform that provides partners with real-time pricing tools, access to competitive financing, standardised documents and marketing materials, and other resources to more efficiently build C&I distributed generation projects.
“Molding Corporation of America has grown into one of the region’s leading molders and we’re equally proud to play a role in the nation’s transition to clean, affordable energy” said Sandra Rinder, Vice President at Molding Corporation of America. “Thanks to the partnership between Solar Optimum and DSD, our facility in Pacoima, California will soon host a rooftop solar installation and serve as a beacon for what responsible manufacturing looks like. As a leading developer and EPC firm in California, Solar Optimum brings unique advantages to our partnership with its extensive knowledge of the local landscape and commitment to prioritising customers above all else. Together, we will help meet the growing demand for clean, reliable energy, and increase access to solar+storage throughout the region.”
DSD launched its Developer Network and DSD Connect platform earlier this year with partnerships in California, the Southwest, Midwest and Northeast, along with a growing portfolio of distributed projects for C&I and MUSH customers.
