Project Overview

The Village of South Holland partnered with Verde Solutions to advance its green energy initiatives by installing solar panels across 5 key municipal buildings: the Police Department, Village Hall/Fire Department, Existing Public Works, Community Center, and the New Public Works facility. This ambitious project marked a significant step forward in the village’s commitment to sustainability, reducing carbon emissions, and harnessing renewable energy. Today, the solar installations are successfully meeting power generation expectations, enabling the village to leverage state solar incentives while contributing meaningfully to its long-term environmental goals.

Solutions Provided

Verde Solutions meticulously managed the project from start to finish, ensuring every detail was handled with precision and professionalism. The process began with an evaluation of the existing roof structures and an electrical analysis of the power sources for all five buildings. Verde’s team then navigated the planning, permitting, and equipment procurement stages, coordinating seamlessly with the local power company and managing the application and processing of state incentives.

Throughout the project, Verde Solutions’ dedicated project manager maintained consistent weekly communication with village representatives, providing updates and addressing challenges across the five sites. Their expertise and commitment were critical in bringing this technically complex project to life. The installation encompassed 1,898 solar panels and 17 inverters, projected to produce over 35,065,900 kWh over 30 years. This output translates to remarkable environmental benefits, including the prevention of 24,851 metric tons of CO2 emissions. By partnering with Verde Solutions, the Village of South Holland has achieved a transformative step in its sustainability journey while exemplifying the power of renewable energy solutions for communities.

"Verde Solutions' staff professionally helped us through every step of the process and communicated weekly regarding our progress on all 5 project sites. Without the help of our project manager, we would never have attempted such an ambitious project in such a technical field. Today the village is meeting our power generation expectations, while taking a huge step towards accomplishing our green energy goals. Thank you, Verde Solutions for an incredibly successful project!"
