This summer, Osprey Wilds, Soltek, and East Central Energy collaborated to install a 716-kilowatt solar photovoltaic system at Osprey Wilds’ campus. The project, the largest of its kind for any nature center in Minnesota, is a win-win-win for all parties. It creates consistent revenue for Soltek, supplies East Central Energy with clean, affordable energy, and provides Osprey Wilds with zero-emission electricity, allowing it to achieve its goals of being carbon neutral from an electrical consumption standpoint, while also providing financial security through affordable energy for the next 30+ years.
But how did the vision for powering Osprey Wilds with solar become a reality? Tune into this recording of Fresh Energy’s October 28 webinar to hear from Osprey Wilds’ Executive Director Bryan Wood, Soltek’s CEO Shawn Markham, and East Central Energy’s CEO Justin Jahnz about how all three parties came together around this project to help each other achieve their organizations’ goals, while also helping the planet.
