More than just a developer EPC
Eitri Foundry actively seeks new ways to implement renewable technologies to maximize benefits to the communities that host our projects. We do this by aligning community needs and implementing innovative methods to create sustainable practices when it comes to economic development, local job creation, infrastructure improvements and supporting educational facilities.
By the end of 2021, Eitri Foundry's projects will have generated over $1M of local tax revenue for project host communities that will be used to fund schools, fire departments, police and other municipal operations.
We work with local labor and local content to support the communities we work with and have found innovative ways to help promote renewable public power.
$15.6M Spent
with Ohio-based vendors
Eitri Foundry works with numerous Ohio based small businesses, manufacturers and service providers. From 2017 to 2021, we've spent $15.6M to support local jobs.
Improving Corporate Sustainability
Recognizing that municipalities rely on the health and well being of their business tenants, Eitri Foundry works with municipalities like the Village of Minster to improve the long term sustainability of these organizations. Bundling RECs (renewable energy credits) with long term non-escalating PPAs has helped to improve long term business practices with a sustainability mindset.
