Official description
Description
The City is committed to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2035 and is partnering with local utility providers to develop programs that support community solar and microgrid projects. Additionally, the City is assessing the potential for municipally owned facilities and properties to serve as hosts for such community solar and microgrid installations.
In the Summer of 2023, the City established pre-approved benches of solar photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage vendors via a Request for Qualifications. The City is currently working with one of these pre-selected vendors to pursue solar panels and battery storage as part of two capital improvement projects: Fire Station 48 and the new Oak Park Library.
