Our goal is to put every community’s destiny in its own hands.
What if communities were able to develop and control their own energy generation and storage needs, solve housing shortages through innovative construction materials and processes, and tie these solutions together in a way that leads to abundant new opportunities for their residents?
Turns out, they can. And we’re making it happen.

Recent Project
High-clearance solar for Oregon cattle ranching community
We are working with a 12,000-acre cattle ranch in Eagle Point, Oregon, on a 120kW net-meter ‘ground mount’ solar project that will reduce the ranches electricity costs while also providing shelter to its herds. Utility costs are fixed for 20 years with no inflation.
The project is also the first bankable, commercialization of RUTE SunTracker, a high-clearance agrivoltaic solar tracking solution designed for, among other things, cattle and other livestock pastures.
“Our system doesn’t require bulldozing or other invasive techniques while also protecting the life beneath the arrays.”
