Deerpath, a full service, project developer of renewable energy projects and asset management intelligence, is pioneering the market for Scalable Small Wind (small wind is defined as 1-100 kW turbines). The company is responsible for all phases of a wind energy system project including siting, permitting, engineering, construction, installation, lifetime O&M and project finance. The company’s wind energy system design allows for renewable generation to be seamlessly and aesthetically integrated into its customer’s current parking lot or street light infrastructure. Deerpath serves the commercial, utility, government and education markets. Their solution provides reliable, highly visible, local clean energy with little or no upfront investment required by its customers. Instead of large, utility-scale wind farms located far from load centers, Deerpath works with communities and businesses to distribute numerous small wind turbines across existing infrastructure in a manner that harvests the maximum amount of wind energy while maintaining harmony with the local environment. Deerpath provides turnkey siting, construction, and O&M services, and project finance through long-term power purchase agreements.
