Powering Public Infrastructure with Municipal Solar Energy
Renu Energy Solutions is a trusted municipal solar installer serving cities, counties, and public agencies across North and South Carolina. From police stations to libraries, fire departments to greenways, Renu designs and installs municipal solar panels that lower energy costs, support sustainability goals, and enhance energy resilience.
Since 2010, Renu has worked with municipalities like CMPD, Buncombe County, and other civic organizations to deliver turn-key solar and energy storage solutions for public buildings and infrastructure.
Why Cities and Counties Are Going Solar
- Lower Utility Costs - Municipal budgets are stretched. Solar energy provides a long-term way to reduce utility bills, freeing up taxpayer dollars for other essential services.
- Access to Federal Reimbursement - Through the Inflation Reduction Act, municipalities now qualify for Direct Pay, a 30% reimbursement of total system cost, even without tax liability. This makes solar energy a smart, accessible investment for public agencies.
- Energy Independence and Emergency Readiness - When paired with battery backup, solar systems provide reliable power during outages. Police departments, fire stations, and emergency shelters benefit from uninterrupted operations in critical moments.
- Environmental Leadership - Municipal solar energy supports local and state climate goals while setting an example for clean energy adoption across the community.
Where Municipal Solar Makes an Impact
Renu designs custom solar systems for a variety of public facilities, including:
- Police and fire departments
