Milwaukee RFPs approach 1MW of Solar

The City of Milwaukee just released an RFP due May 10 to qualified solar electricity installers and third party participant (TPP) investors for six solar electric systems totaling approximately 1.1 megawatts. The systems will be installed on libraries, a police station, repair garage and a publics works building in We Energies territory. The projects shall be fully installed and grid connected by December 2018.

The financing strategy is to use third party participant (TPP) investors to provide the up-front capital beyond that provided by state grants where the solar installers and TPP investors design, supply, install, commission, maintain and finance the solar electric systems. . .
