Renewables
Renewable energy sources include solar photovoltaics, solar thermal, geothermal, biomass, and recovery of landfill gas.
Lime Energy's renewables development team has the technical experience to create economically viable renewable energy solutions.
Our technical depth coupled with alternative financial structuring offers clients the opportunity to benefit from renewable energy without the need for capital investment. Lime Energy, for example, can provide the initial capital for a solar electric system and will own, operate, and maintain the system over a long-term contract.
This same financial treatment is available for solar thermal energy, geothermal heat pumps, biomass, and landfill gas that contains methane, a potent greenhouse gas that can be captured and used to fuel power plants, manufacturing facilities, vehicles, and homes.
Renewable energy can supplement or completely provide a facility’s energy requirements resulting in reduced energy costs, energy independence, and reduced emissions of greenhouse gasses.
Project development from Lime includes a careful evaluation of opportunities to save energy before we consider the size and capacity of a renewable option. Acting on the opportunities to save first can reduce the requirement for new renewable energy, which will likely improve the overall project economics.
