en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians has completed a 2.23 MW solar carport system at the Coyote Valley Casino & Hotel on the Coyote Valley Reservation in Redwood Valley, California. The project was developed by Watthub Renewables and constructed by SunRenu Solar, implemented through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Sunrock Distributed Generation, enabling the tribe to avoid upfront capital costs.

The project includes a 1,411 kW solar carport installed in the casino parking lot. A second 817.5 kW system is installed at the Coyote Valley Hotel, powering the adjacent tribal council offices, a convenience store, and a wastewater treatment facility. The system uses JA Solar panels and CPS inverters, with an expected annual generation of approximately 3,472 MWh, accounting for about 45% of the site's energy usage, and is estimated to save the Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians over $450,000 in the first year. Under the agreement, Sunrock Distributed Generation will manage and operate the system for the next 30 years, selling all on-site generated energy to the customer at a discounted rate below grid power, while monitoring and maintaining it to ensure reliable performance and ongoing cost savings for the tribe.

Wilson Chang, CEO of Sunrock Distributed Generation, stated that the project demonstrates how the company helps convert energy costs into long-term economic value for local communities. The Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians is leveraging solar energy to reduce utility risks, enhance operational resilience, and save over $450,000 in the first year.
