The new contract certifies Borrego Solar to provide solar installations to federal agencies.

Borrego claims its installations are already in demand from the US Department of Defence (DoD).

The DoD is expected to continue to increase spending on renewable energy, reaching $10bn annually by 2030, according to Pike Research.

The GSA contract win will help bolster Borrego Solar’s growing federal portfolio, which includes a nearly 1MW solar project at the Point Loma Navy Base in San Diego bay and a 3.4MW project at Edwards Air Force Base.

Borrego Solar CEO Mike Hall this contract win is good news for Borrego Solar, as it provides more opportunities to partner with federal agencies and develop cost-effective solar installations.

"Solar energy is a smart investment for the federal government, and we look forward to help more agencies reduce their energy consumption and achieve energy independence through our financing, design and installation services" added Hall.
