Trajectory Energy donates $10,000 as Southside community solar project moves forward
Summary
Trajectory Energy Partners presented a $10,000 donation tied to a community benefit commitment for the South Side Community Solar project; staff and the mayor said the project was selected for the Illinois community solar program and is expected to deliver estimated annual savings of about $162,000 to South Side subscribers and roughly $300,000 in local tax revenue over its life.
Sheets, a representative of Trajectory Energy Partners, told the council the company's Southside Community Solar project was selected for the Illinois Power Agency program and presented a $10,000 check to the city for South Side park improvements.
Sheets described the project footprint as about 15 acres between Locust and Lombard streets near the Mary Davis Center, said projected annual electric bill savings to local South Side subscribers total about $162,000, and said a 50% discount for South Side participants should equate to roughly $450 per subscribing household per year. Council thanked Trajectory and said the park and rec director would accept the donation for South Side park improvements.
