Community Center and Administration Solar PV Project

Summary

The Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians faced challenges with unreliable power from investor-owned utilities and high electricity costs, prompting a need for greater energy sovereignty and sustainability. Their approach involved installing two roof-mounted solar PV systems, totaling 146 kW, on their Community Center and administration building. This completed project has successfully reduced electricity bills, saved over $70,000 in its first year, and is a significant step towards the Tribe's goal of energy independence.
