For agencies at every level of government, sustainability is more than an objective; it's a mandate supported from all sides. Increasing regulations require agencies to pursue sustainability efforts, and constituents increasingly look to the public sector to lead the way in renewable, responsible operations.

At the same time, government agencies must implement sustainability initiatives that deliver high performance in an environment of shrinking budgets and limited resources. SunEdison understands this critical balance, and we've designed our solar energy solutions to deliver on all fronts.

With SunEdison's fully managed solar service options, agencies can take advantage of reliable, clean power without capital costs or in-house expertise. What's more, SunEdison's support for sustainability programs goes beyond solar program development, deployment and management. We also provide comprehensive marketing support to help our customers promote their sustainability efforts to constituents and employees. We even offer special employee discounts programs for our customers, making it easier to extend the benefits of sustainability from workplace to home.

SunEdison was selected by the CaliforniaStateUniversity system after they revised their policy on energy conservation, calling for a further reduction in energy consumption of 15 percent by 2010 and a doubling of its self-generated energy supply by 2015. The entire solar panel project - installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting - was covered by SunEdison with no out-of-pocket costs to the University. Over the 20-year life of the contract, the estimated savings to the University is about $285,000, assuming retail power rates only increase at 3 percent per year.
